The Mother Jones reporter asked if there was a connection between the rattlesnake and the Tea Party use of the famed "Don't Tread on Me" flag from the days of the Revolution. I shot that down!
Well, a reporter at Business Week picked up on the Mother Jones article and quoted yours truly in his own.
This is why I continue to ask for donations because Warning Signs is getting noticed in the mainstream media and I do a fair amount of radio interviews as well. It gets the conservative message out there and God knows it's hard to break through the liberal blather served up as news.
The articles are brief and fun to read:

As far as I am concerned, no species should be protected. Florida has protected alligators, and even salt water crocodiles.
ReplyDeleteNow there are both alligators and the crocodiles attacking humans, and the crocodiles have grown to about 16 feet in length, and are attacking and eating humans off shore and on the beaches of southern Florida.
Louisiana did not protect alligators, and the alligaters are doing well without protection, and are providing Cajuns with lots of both meat and leather goods.
If you want a species to increase in numbers, make sure that it is valuable to humans.
If ALL publicity is GOOD publicity, a link from Mother Moonbat, uh, Jones, should be nearly priceless...

Great piece Alan, and Mother Jones too? LMAO... Priceless...
