As I have written endlessly that the wilderness years of the Republican Party are now upon us.
In a final insult to working people, the Bush EPA is proposing taxing ranchers who own cows and pigs because when they pass gas they say it adds to global warming. If the Obama administration runs with this there could be a chance for the GOP to come out of the pig sty.
The proposal would require farms or ranches with more than 25 dairy cows, 50 beef cattle, or 200 hogs to pay an annual fee of about $175 for each dairy cow, $87.50 per head of beef cattle, and $20 for each hog. These folks never met a tax they did not like! Nobody comes between Americans and their pork ribs or steak!
So read for yourself, and prepare for the mother of all food fights! All hail the cow dung rebellion!
