[null and void]

So the people who are getting $27,000,000.00 say it’s worth it?

Good.

[neodad]

despite conflicting views on whether the elusive bird even exists.

Good, maybe they can find those damn snipes while they're at it.

[HuntsvilleTxVeteran]

How many cook books will they publish?

[MNJohnnie]

Meanwhile we are being told we have to raise the gas tax to “stop bridges from falling down”

Time to get a rope....

[golfisnr1]

The woodpeckers name is Bubba and he went to Washington.

[doc1019]

Could just hire several good hunters for, oh, say, a thou’ to kill all of them and save ourselves 27 Mil. ;-)

[keepitreal]

I’ve got many woodpeckers in my yard. Can I get some federal cash to study them?

[Clintonfatigued]

Our taxpayer dollars at work.

You know this is a real Sin against our Gov, when HUMAN’S are losing their homes, paying outragous gas prices,abortion is still legal. oh btw has John Edwards been asked about his investment thingy that is foreclosing on people. And he’s talking about a BIGGER AND BETTER drug program.

I don’t want any a-hole from congress to compain about treatment for the poor. Not when they do something like this.

time to get a rope...

can I be in your posse

[spunkets]

"...despite conflicting views on whether the elusive bird even exists."

LOL! I'll have to file a request for $50M to study the N Pole, else Santa could fall in and drown if the ice melts and the kids won't get anything for Christmas.

[marty60]

No they will just come and seize your property.

So nix on the wp talk.

[Paperdoll]

For a bird they are not even sure exists? I don’t believe it! I wonder who will be lining their own pockets this time?

[RckyRaCoCo]

Here's one in my tree

I'm only asking $12,500...and i'll throw in a couple sparrows.

[sure_fine]

both of them

[Dubya]

LOL Good deal.

[shove_it]

“The woodpeckers name is Bubba and he went to Washington.”

Did you mean to say peckerwood?

The real reason for the demise of the ivory billed woodpecker
