Man cannot aspire if he looked down; if he rise, he must look up.

In his article, Greens vs. Levees, John Berlau writes that the Sierra Club "was one of several environmental groups who sued the Army Corps of Engineers to stop a 1996 plan to raise and fortify Mississippi River levees."

And why was the Sierra Club suing the Army Corps of Engineers to stop the fortification of the levees?

For the birds and the bears, of course.

The lawsuit stated, “Bottomland hardwood forests must be protected and restored if the Louisiana black bear is to survive as a species, and if we are to ensure continued support for source population of all birds breeding in the lower Mississippi River valley.”

At the time of this writing, 11:43pm EDT, the Sierra Club has removed their indictment, presumably from the attention elicited from the Berlau article and the subsequent Malkin advertising. However, their Ground Zero report concludes,

The unmistakable conclusion that must be drawn is that America remains at risk not only from terrorist attacks and natural disasters, but also from our own federal government’s unwillingness to put public health and safety first in its response to such national emergencies.

And who will hold the Sierra Club responsible for their unwillingness to put public health and safety before the Louisiana black bear?

Their unbridled hyprocrisy knows no bounds.
