#1 Dont get me started on 'GreenPeace' which, in my opinion, is a front organization for the democratic party if not the communist party.

What they did to the Lumber industry around here (and that based on made-up 'studies') they are now trying to do to the fishing industry (also based on made-up 'studies').

Unfortunately they are good at raising funds (not letting the truth get in the way of raising a buck) and can probaby weasle out of this.

I've seen these people around here taking 'polls'. Funny how they only approach people who look a certain way (like they might be the sort of people who would agree with their agenda) to take a 'poll'....

#2 I wouldn't doubt that they recieve funds from OPEC as a way to bottle up US production of oil reserves.

#4 Here is a link to NGO Watch's webpage on Greenpeace. Click on the link in the webpage and you can see the IRS Form 990 for non profits that GP had to fill out. Organizations like these constantly explore the envelope of the non profit classification, and the IRS should smack them if they start being political.

For further reading pleasure, or to test out your latest blood pressure medicine or tranquilizer, here is a link to the ACLU.

This is all part of the Know Your Enemyâ¢ program.

AP - the only way I want to "know my enemy" is to have him firmly bracketed in my gunsights.

#6 OP---I know how you feel about these clowns. I am frustrated, too, at what they do in their attempt to destroy this govt. Consider the links above as background and recon before they go in the sights.

#7 Hmmm
Last week we read that France has re-targeted its nukes against "rogue states", now this.
Consider: Greenpeace is substantially independent of all lawfully constituted governments, it regularly flouts international law, it opposes many French military and economic interests. Sounds like a rogue state to me.
Worse, it has already defeated France in one military confrontation. Having failed with their conventional weapons, the revenge-crazed Frogs will no doubt be tempted to bring out their "big one" for the next round. If I were Green-piss, which thankfully I am not, I would getting a little worried just now.

#9 Wonder what grabbed the steering wheel of this school bus and headed towards the ditch.

According to something I read the other day, when the Soviet Union went belly-up, all the Communist loonies had to find another hobby, and decided they could best carry out their previous agenda disguised as "environmentalists".

Greenpeace is substantially independent of all lawfully constituted governments...

But isn't that..that...globalization? I mean, just like the evil baby-blood drinking multinational corporations?

#10 Greenpeace is substantially independent of all lawfully constituted governments...

Angie, I missed that line. Does that mean they are substantially dependent on unlawfully constituted governments - must be working for the Taliban.

#11 Was watching MSNBC last night and they had a Greenpeace talking head and someone else.

The point was made that a lot of Greenpeace's donors are in SoCal and a lot of their homes went up. hehehehehehehehe

Schaudenfreude???
