SACBEE / The Sacramento Bee - Calif.

A major investor is helping The Nature Conservancy -- America's largest environmental group -- buy land and protect species across the United States.

The same benefactor is providing financial aid to the World Wildlife Fund for international conservation. It is spending heavily to help other groups, from the American Farmland Trust to Trout Unlimited, hold conferences, post Web pages, restore habitat and sway public opinion in favor of protecting the natural world.

KEYWORDS:
ALL, As Henry Lamb says at His WND Commentary, U.S. taxpayers all over this country are paying federal Income taxes that are given to these “nonprofit” NGOs so the NGOs and godgov can take VAST tracts of property off tax roles, thereby forcing the remaining private property owners to pay higher tax rates in order to keep their local governments working. This is EVIL incarnate.

This is NOT front page news anywhere. It SHOULD BE!! Perhaps here. Peace and love, George.

Outstanding find George! Thanks ever so much for the flag. I bookmarked this.

"When the federal government subsidizes one side of a public policy debate, it undermines the very essence of democracy," said Randal O'Toole, a senior economist at The Thoreau Institute, a free-market environmental think tank in Oregon."

Hes got that right.

Thanks for the ping.

Four groups -- The Nature Conservancy, Ducks Unlimited, the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, and the World Wildlife Fund --

Ducks Unlimited!! I have never heard of them before. They must be run by a bunch of quacks with a name like that.

Conservationists say such teamwork is vital to preserving the biological diversity of life on Earth.

I certainly understand their theory of biological diversity. They need biological diversity to go along with all of the cultural diversity they create by allowing all of the illegal aliens into the country.

And to think we allow congress to get away with this. The next time you go into a store or supermarket and say to yourself "I sure would like to have that but....."

Think of your elected representative - are they representing you?

It's time to change the oil in Washington.
