Ashley Judd vs Sarah Palin

You would think that if Ashley Judd and the Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund were going to take on Sarah Palin that they would atleast have some facts and basic knowledge about the subject they are so upset about. What is it that they are so upset about? Aerial hunting of wolves, obviously.

From Politico

“It is time to stop Sarah Palin and stop this senseless savagery,” Judd
says in the ad.

It’s not the first time Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund, a
progressive environmental organization, has taken aim at Palin over the aerial killings. During the presidential campaign, Defenders launched a national television ad campaign focused on the topic.

In a statement announcing the launch of the anti-Palin campaign, Judd says she is “outraged by Sarah Palin's promotion of this cruel, unscientific and senseless practice which has no place in modern America.”

“Because she is apparently determined to continue and expand
this horrific program, I am grateful that Defenders will aggressively fight to stop her. I am proud to be a part of that effort,” Judd says.

I almost feel bad for Ashley Judd that I am about to completely destroy her credibility on this issue. I kinda feel like a bully. There hasn't been a mismatch this bad since Billy Madison took on Miss Lippys kindergarten class in dodgeball.

Ashley, this is really very simple, so follow along. First lets get to the wolves. Have you ever wondered why the wolves are being killed? They are being killed so that your precious caribou can survive and flourish. You remember the caribou right? These are the animals whose lives are so precious that we can't drill in ANWR. They are the reason that we import our oil from dictators rather than create jobs for our own citizens. We couldn't possibly upset the caribou herd.

Well guess what Ashley. Those wolves eat your caribou. The wolves don't even bother to use helicopters, they just go right after the baby caribou and rip them to pieces. This has been decimating their population. So has Palins project to target certain numbers of wolves worked?

Slaughtering wolves on the Alaska Peninsula appears to have had the desired effect — more caribou got a chance to live, according to biologists with the
Alaska Department of Fish and Game.

As ugly and as politically incorrect as the wolf killing might seem to
some, they said, the helicopter gunning that took place earlier this year saved caribou, especially young caribou, from being eaten alive.

Fall surveys of the Southern Alaska Peninsula caribou herd completed in October found an average of 39 calves per 100 cows. That’s a dramatic improvement from fall counts of only 1 calf per 100 cows in 2006 and 2007.

So you should be thanking Palin. She has saved more caribou than you or your Defenders of Wildlife combined. Unless of course you are for wolves that rip apart baby caribou.

Or is it that they hunt the wolves from helicopters? Would you be for this practice if the wolf thinning project was done from the ground. Do you think the wolves care if they are being shot from a helicopter rather than from the ground?

Once again liberals let their feelings get in the way of the facts. This is the real world Ashley. If the wolf population isn't kept under control, your caribou will be wiped off the map. Now run back to Miss Lippys class and finish reading The Puppy Who Lost His Way.
