touch MY fur, lose a finger. touch my WIFE’S fur, goodbye arm. “Conservatives seek agreements while liberals demand compliance” L.Star. no truer statement in politics exists. as a conservative ever since the democrats told me, a moderate democrat, to get lost, I’ve studied, learned the history of and come to realized that the liberal progressive movement is purely Marxism,just under a different name.

“Yeah, there are more baby seals in the Arctic than you can shake a stick at.”

It is one of the reasons Polar Bear populations are doing so well. They are, almost certainly, at an all time high.

Probably more polar bears than have existed in a hundred years.

I do have a seal skin car coat. And it keeps me quite toasty.

Not baby seal I think because it is not white.
