I haven’t taken the time to put together a round up of the Enviro-nitwit Supreme and all the other fun, so now seems like a good time.
I do want to note one thing though, and that is the I am retiring the phrase “eco-nazi” from the blog, except in rare occasions.

After seeing the treatment by Lieberman by the DNC, it seems Maria has suddenly realized that she is playing a big game of chicken with the party over her position, a stare down if you will against the rabid liberal Bush haters.
