#1 This has been brewing for a long time. The Sierra club hates new development whether it is suburban tracts or Walmart. It doesn't take a genius to realize that most of the population growth in the US is because of immigration.

#3 Isn't this kinda redundant, to have a group concerned with controlling population growth? I mean liberalism professes the benefits of abortion. All we have to do is to keep them in business and they will control populations for us.

#4 LOL, SH. If I didn't know better, I'd think you were the guy who writes headlines for our local dead tree scroll. e.g. Shoe Warehouse Steps into(Town)

#5 It's always a shame when the tree-huggers go at eachother with hatchets.

#6 badanov, Sierra Club policy has for years supported legal abortion for exactly that reason: lessening population. (I corresponded with them about it--objecting to such a policy.) By that logic, they ought to back war, too. And genocide. If the end justifies the means, finally anything goes. They are evil.

#7 GK, that sounds like the local Gazette! They do have some absolutely HORRIBLE headlines... Including Asay's cartoon on the editorial page makes up for a lot, though. I pity people that don't get his work every day.

#8 #7. It is and I agree about Chuck Asay. He's nationally syndicated. So Rantburghers can pick up some of his work. Here's an example or go to: http://www.comics.com/editoons/asay/index.html
Asay is mostly conservative, but he'll take a shot at GW when warranted.
BTW you mentioned once that you live near Tesla drive. That puts us about 1 1/2 miles apart.

#9 "impact of mass immigration on the environment and quality of life for future generations" of Americans. These dissidents want the Club to promote public policy that will restrict Americaâs future population growth.

-no shit, I've been saying this for 5 years. Put a moratorium on all immigration into this country. The only pop growth should be from those of us already here. There's enough people already in the country, and yes, it has potential to hurt the environment. (how many more strip malls and parking lots do we need). I've seen Seoul, I can tell you how over population can fuck up an area. This is one of the smartest things SClub could support. As far as abortion goes, that's a hot button too long to fight here. I'm pro-choice, but that's my deal. I don't condone abortion for my personal life due to my personal beliefs, but I'm not about to try and stop or harrass someone from having a legal abortion.
