Polar bears are a taboo subject for U.S. government scientists. Only those anointed as an "official spokesman" can publicly discuss polar bears -- and s/he needs to be certified as having an understanding of the Bush administration's position on polar bears.
What is the Bush administration's position on polar bears?
Because of scientific reports that the bears' icy habitat is melting due to global warming, the administration was asked to declare the bears as "threatened" under the Endangered Species Act. A "threatened" listing would bar the government from taking any action that jeopardizes the animal's existence.
Instead of making that determination, the Bush administration opened a major bear habitat to oil leases.
Speaking about the Endangered Species Act, a government spokesperson proclaimed "If God sees fit to re-call a species He created, who are we to question his divine judgement?
The spokesperson explained, "God created the dinosaurs, killed them off and turned them into oil. I'm sure scientists would have asked that the dinosaurs be covered by the Endangered Species Act as well!"

Report Offensive CommentWhile Stan enjoys his time driving his SUV hunting for sources he can't ever seem to find while stridently demanding to see everyone else's, the courts move ahead in their case again this administration's inaction. Court Forces Government to Move on Polar Bear Status A federal judge on Monday gave the Interior Department until May 15 to come to a decision on whether to give polar bears protection under the Endangered Species Act. The ruling, coming after nearly four months of departmental delays, rejected the government???s contention that the case was too complicated to decide before June 30. "Defendants have been in violation of the law requiring them to publish" their decision on the bear???s status "for nearly 120 days," Judge Claudia Wilken of Federal District Court in Oakland, Calif., wrote. In addition to setting a May 15 deadline, Judge Wilken ordered that the decision take effect immediately, setting aside the usual 30-day grace period. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/30/us/30bear.html?partner=rssuserland&emc=rss

Hahahaha...6 votes for a debate arguement not yet posted. Someone is obviously running a voting racket here. Don't bother posting because this debate is now tabled due to massive voting fraud. But feel free to leave your usual gratuitously abrasive remarks, slipperystan.
