In response to the Republicans' takeover of the U.S. House of Representatives, thousands of red-wing blackbirds and starlings died in flight and fell from the sky in Arkansas, Kentucky, and Louisiana, starting during the New Year's weekend and continuing till today.

They were joined by about 100,000 dead fish who washed up on the shores of the Arkansas River.

These poor, innocent creatures died from shock upon hearing the news that Fred Upton, R-Minnesota, has been selected to chair the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, which also oversees environmental matters.

1. Too bad they didn't shit on the RepubliCON voters before dying.

Thousands of birds would make quite a mess. :)

2. Scary stuff going on out there...

The birds and the bees and the bats are all dying off...

The beginning of the rapture, perhaps?
