Rush Limbaugh: These groups are hardly associated with the environment. They're merely anti-capitalists in disguise (paraphrased).

That's what I just said.
Terrorists with a green message.
Nevermind that the message is crap.
They're murderers and psychos.
They merely want to control others way of life, if they can, because they lack control over their own.

Not all of them are anti-capitalists.
Some are just plain psychotic, others are bored rich birkenstock types, some are the 'soccy mommies' type, some are into it because it's "in", others are truly fanatical about it in the same vein as the Muslims are about killing us.
