All kinds of native wildlife are dying in a fire... but they're dying within an artificial boundary
that bears the Bush name.

Yay!!!

Seriously?

Would we be cheering their deaths if the fire were burning in Yellowstone? Sequoia? The Smokey Mountains?

We'll cheer their deaths here though, because I guess they should have known better, and left the artificial boundary that bears the hated name.

Too cool.

4. That isn't so... I recc'd the thread (living here in Houston) because the
fires are really beginning to get rather scary, we haven't had any of the rain the rest of the country is getting...and I'm getting sick of hearing about tropical storms that "sort of" hit other areas over a week ago. I recc'd it so people would see yet another fire has started here. Thank you.

5. I guess you missed the thread where DU'ers rec'd because of the Bush name.
DU God Will Pitt couldn't even comment. He didn't fail to post on the thread though. His post makes me guess he's okay with it too.

George Bush Park on fire? Yay! No matter that humans are NOT the only beings affected by the fire...

After all, they're only Texans, right?

Maybe one day, when Texas votes blue, DU'ers won't cheer fires burning there.

Maybe.
