Message from above? Flocks of birds dying in red states since Americans elected Republicans
Edited on Wed Jan-05-11 08:08 PM by Onlooker
Kentucky, Louisiana, Texas, Tennessee, ....

http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/6182948/more_dead_birds_fall_from_kentucky.html

Happening somewhat concurrently with the second incident of blackbird population suddenly dying and falling from the sky in Louisiana, a third incident was reported on Monday, January 3, in Gilbertsville, Kentucky.

Although of a smaller scope than both the Louisiana incident and the death of thousands of red-winged blackbirds on New Year's Eve in Beebe, Arkansas, the several dozen blackbirds found scattered around the yard of a Kentucky woman were enough to alarm her. And, like the Arkansas and Louisiana bird falls, officials are hard pressed to give definitive answers as to what might have caused the avians to fall from the sky.

Add Middle Tennessee to the list of places where flocks of birds have shown up dead. Earlier in the week, birds were found dead in Arkansas, Louisiana, Kentucky and Texas.

http://www.allvoices.com/contributed-news/7800408-now-east-texas-also-reports-hundreds-of-dead-birds

Texans are observing hundreds of dead birds on an East Texas bridge, according to a breaking report by KLTV in Tyler. This latest discovery compounds the mystery of recent reported discoveries of dozens, hundreds, even thousands of dead birds and fish documented in the southern United States as well as dead wildlife reports in other parts of the world this week.

Around 200 birds were found dead on a Hwy 155 bridge over the Lake O' the Pines, this morning.

10. Yes it is conservative
Edited on Thu Jan-06-11 05:07 AM by Onlooker
Not sure what your point is or why you're posting in DU, but yes in the recent years Sweden has definitely tilted to the right. So, thanks for (unintentionally) providing further support for my premise!

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/sweden/8012411/Sweden-elections-end-in-hung-parliament-rise-of-far-Right.html (Thursday 06 January 2011)

Swedish elections on Sunday night ended in a hung parliament after the rise of a far-Right group narrowly prevented the conservative-liberal coalition government from winning an outright majority in Sweden’s parliament.

(FYI, Since you're at least 4 years out of date with your knowledge of Sweden, perhaps you're not aware that liberals in Sweden are conservative.)

11. Oh come on, even with their present political alignment Sweden is far more liberal than America and
their governing coalition is more liberal than today's Democrats.
