Check out the hysterical reaction of the DUmmies to the Obama Administration's decision to open up 381 of 17,000,000 acres of Tongass National Forest in Alaska to logging. Some of the loons went so far as to attack anyone who pointed out the bigger picture as a freeper. Fun stuff. Kool Aid drinkers of all stripes are losing the taste.

Obama is pissing off EVERYONE.
"At least one tree sitter on Tuesday began throwing bags of human waste on the approaching arborists."

BERKELEY, Calif. (KCBS) -- One woman was arrested Tuesday as authorities removed some of the structures that have housed tree sitting protesters in an oak grove UC Berkeley wants to cut down to make way for a $125 million athletic facility.
The protester was taken into custody after she reportedly bit one of the workers removing her supplies, according to police. Officers cordoned off part of Piedmont Avenue near Memorial Grove and brought in arborists to remove the platforms and gear the tree sitters have used to maintain their perches since December 2006. A university official had earlier said the tree sitters themselves would not be removed yet.
One of the things were most concerned about is safety and security, of our police officers and the people in the trees. Thats the reason were not forcibly removing people from the trees today, said Dan Mogulof, a spokesman for UC Berkeley.
Tuesday was not the first time the university has removed scaffolding built by the protesters, but removing the people has proven more difficult. One witness told KCBS reporter Tim Ryan at the scene that some of the tree sitters threw urine they had collected in buckets at the police and arborists to discourage them from climbing.

Funny that these people are so worried about trees, but not so much worried about humans. What a bunch of loons.
Yeah, or at least it helps to consider it funny - or else it’s just downright sad.
Amazing.
The Bezerkley PD doesn’t know how to take violent and aggressive trespassers into custody!?!?
I wonder how many trees it takes to produce a Sunday edition of the NY slimes. Hey DUmmies, what do you think newspapers are made of, spun silk?
381 acres out of 17,000,000?
Geez, the horror! The tragedy...
I’ve got a chain saw they’re welcome to hug.
Could someone arrange a meeting between me and the History Channel's Ice Road Truckers' Lisa?
Don’t they worry about the carbon produced by using a computer and going online?
There is unrest in the forest,
There is trouble with the trees,
For the maples want more sunlight
And the oaks ignore their pleas.
The trouble with the maples,
(And they’re quite convinced they’re right)
They say the oaks are just too lofty
And they grab up all the light.
But the oaks can’t help their feelings
If they like the way they’re made.
And they wonder why the maples
Can’t be happy in their shade.
There was trouble in the forest,
And the creatures all have fled,
As the maples scream “Oppression!”
And the oaks just shake their heads
So the maples formed a union
And demanded equal rights.
“The oaks are just too greedy;
We will make them give us light.”
Now there’s no more oak oppression,
For they passed a noble law,
And the trees are all kept equal
By hatchet, axe, and saw.
1/44,000th of the forest. Oh, no!
Far less if they only go in and cut the trees they want.
What a wonderful poem....How does it end????
I think the trees will grow back...
MY GOD THAT'S 0.002%!!!
