Terrorist Groundhog Attacks BloombergYou know what’s awful about this? I mean, what’s really, really awful? That when I first saw this story over at the New York Times, I didn’t even chuckle.

I mean, the government has labeled animal rights and environmental activists as the “number one domestic terrorist threat.” So when this groundhog bit Bloomberg, why not label it a “terrorist” too? Unlike these activists, the groundhog actually hurt someone.

    Serves him right. Poor guy just wants to be left alone.

    I bet the ground hog never placed a bomb at someones house.

    That doesn’t matter, apparently all you need to be an eco-terrorist is for some-one to say you are. Most of those who are accused of being eco-terrorists never planted any bombs. Indeed I would suggest that on the occassions where bombs were planted, we are looking a “false flag” operations. Where the alleged ‘victims’ are the ones responsible, to drum up sympathy, or just for the insurance.

    Behold the new “Terrorist Rodent” tag! Sure to be a powerful tool for Green is the New Red in the future.

    Part of me knows it would be a little childish to go back and tag all the “Anna” articles with that tag. Part of me knows it would be a little hilarious.

    At the time its groundhog was biting Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the Staten Island Zoo was running a Blood Drive.

    The underreported facts associated with this event:

    Unlike Punxatawny Phil (the original g-hog) named in accordance with Punxatawny, PA. His Staten Island counterpart appropriately goes by the name “THE RIZA.” Additionally, after being bit mayor Bloomberg was told by the groundhog to, “Protek ya’ nek.”

    Bloomberg is an idiot. He forced thru legislation that allows him to run for a 3rd term. He also said that NYC’s carriage horses have to work for their keep ljust ike everyone else. Of course, while Bloomberg works in his climate controlled office, the horses toil and die in the extreme heat, humidity, cold, traffic, etc.
    EAT THE RICH.
