Obama moves to save the honey bees, targets pesticides

[Nyvin]

Once again the far left can not admit Obama is a failure and they keep proving each and every time they post..

The far left id the problem and should not now or ever be in charge of anything.

Being a far left Obama drone, are you going to admit that Obama is a failure?

You said that lefty's never agree with you. Give me an opportunity to show you that we can. All you have to do is say something that is true.

Let's do this.

all lefties, it doesnt matter even if they are moderate and conservative ones.... are far lefties to this guy....all they have to do is disagree with him on something.... im waiting for him to call me a far left Obama drone....

It's part of the labelling scheme...anything or anyone not on the extreme right wing conservative agenda is "far left" and usually "obama drone"

Anyone else get the feeling that Stephanie is a high school student or college student? Just seems very immature. Obviously doesn't comprehend how many things we need the Bee for.

I've never once considered Stephanie was, is or ever could be a college student.

There is literally 0% chance Steph has ever attended college. I put it at less than 10% chance she has ever even driven through the campus of one.

I would not expect people like Steph to understand the importance of pollinators and agriculture.
These knee jerk reactionaries tend to never even understand what they are complaining about, they just love to hear themselves bitch and think they are contributing positive communication...

you don't need a degree in agri-science to understand pollination...and how vital it is when growing food...

The companies that sell the pesticides in question were already considering not selling them. Also, there have been a lot of stories on this and many people are choosing not to buy the pesticides that kill the honey bees. Information is good. I realize that some don't think people are smart enough to keep up with things and make good decisions. We don't need to spend millions on studying the pesticides since we already know that some are worse than they need to be. The honey bees around here are as busy as ever. They love my flower beds and they don't bother me. As for the wasps and hornets, that is another matter.

I would rather that the administration and congress focus on more urgent things.

Food is one of our most major concerns..For some reason we need it to survive...

We need to start a # save the bees on all social media.

There's actually already a large number of them out there right now...

I blame much of it on the media. No one can be as ignorant as Stephanie and hold such ridiculous opinions as does she if they were not brainwashed by the demagogues and charlatans who are ubiquitous on the AM Radio Dial and Cable News.

The lies, half-truths, innuendos, rumor mongering and character assassination by media talking heads are effective tools for those who hope to further dumb down the American voter.

Sadly, elected officials lack the courage and integrity to take on these faux philosophers and the Supreme Court's Conservative coallition has made it easy for the power elite to spend enormous amounts of money - often anonymously - to brainwash people like Stephanie to vote against their best interests and defend those who will exploit them.

Obama wants to save the bees...

Which means Conservatives insist on killing them

Wait till you see what we have in store for those cute adorable lady bugs....
And don't get me fucking started on butterflies....

This shit ain't gonna be pretty.

I know bees are a good thing.
But if Obama is for them.....

What can I say.My hands are tied.

Do you always inspect your bowl movements??

But you did pay the dominatrix first,,right???

 

[Moonglow]

Why is Steph not tarding on grasshopper tacos?? 4 out of 5 humans on the planet consume insects,(which are animals), but not in the US, unless you have a survival show..

I mean bees do work as a team. That sounds an awful lot like socialism.

Commie Bees!

Honeybee disease is being politicized with obama finding the "cure". YAAY.

obama can find the cure, which is banning something because that always works, as long as sane people keep working at finding a cure for the virus or a way to deal with the virus. In the US government grant money might be able to stop research into finding a cure and direct into something politically expedient. Thankfully such insanity isn't world wide. Scientists in the UK (which may not use the pesticides blamed for the condition and have nothing to blame) are working on curing the virus before it spreads from honeybees to wild bumblebees.

I guess Stephanie thinks grocery stores just magically produce food.

that was so uncalled for...and I guess you think this government has money trees growing in the back of the white house
whatever

Well, you don't seem to understand that the loss of honeybees is a really big deal, Staph.

Which is what happens when your college teaches about talking snakes in Science Class.

Time for some good ol'rightwing honeybee denial

1. Honeybee dying is a liberal myth
2. Honeybees have been dying for thousands of years
3. How do you know it is man killing them?
4. We need to study more before we do anything
5. Saving honeybees will cost jobs

This man is frikken Insane...we have a crisis in the middle east/Iraq, our borders are being INVADED and he'S out to save a fucking bee...and they plan to spend Millions doing it...we are being HOSED by this administration and every damn government agency He is in charge of now it's a, PoLLINATOR HEALTH TASK FORCE...

SNIP:

President Obama on Friday announced plans to save endangered honey bees and other pollinators, for the first time ordering a probe into new types of pesticides that some local governments and 15 European Union nations have restricted or banned.

The long-awaited plan creates a “Pollinator Health Task Force” that has 180 days to come up with a plan to save bees, butterflies and other pollinators. The goal is to rid fields of harmful pesticides while planting food for the bugs, even on military bases an along railroad tracks. Virtually every Cabinet department will be included on the task force.

A key victory for the honey bee industry is Obama’s mention of “neonicotinoids,” a new type of pesticide product that many blame for the shocking loss of bees in the epidemic called “colony collapse disorder.”

In the six-page presidential memo, the White House singled out what it wants the Environmental Protection Agency to do:

“The Environmental Protection Agency shall assess the effect of pesticides, including neonicotinoids, on bee and other pollinator health and take action, as appropriate, to protect pollinators; engage state and tribal environmental, agricultural, and wildlife agencies in the development of state and tribal pollinator protection plans; encourage the incorporation of pollinator protection and habitat planting activities into green infrastructure and Superfund projects; and expedite review of registration applications for new products targeting pests harmful to pollinators.”

Some members of the EU voted last year to restrict the use of pesticides that include neuroactive neonicotinoid chemicals. Three are in use: clothianidin, imidacloprid and thiametoxam.

Pollinators, mostly bees, are responsible for much of what grows on farms.

In a related move, the Agriculture Department said it would spend $8 million to establish new habitats for honey bees in Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin.

This proves you have the intelligence level of a rock. You really are ignorant to say the least.

really, and you prove you have nothing but insults and a rock is probably nice than you too...maybe you should hit yourself in the head with the rock nice might rub off on you

Whines about being insulted and then insults anyways..

Life must have been rough for you being this retarded.
