New England Kills Mantees

Alright,
I wanted to grab a sensational headline for once. Dennis, the wayward manatee which worked his way into Cape Cod harbor was rescued for a return here to Florida and during the transport, the manatee died.
I know, everyone loves manatees. Just look at their cute faces, they just need to be rescued, while all marine dock construction should come to a complete halt while we adjust the normal behavior of a non native species.
A rapid response to the "Dennis" manatee sighting in Cape Cod, was addressed by the International Fund for Animal Welfare. "The loss stunned animal lovers"
Hmm. I love animals. Didn't stun me. If these folks wanted to save "Dennis", he was first sighted in Fall River on September 24th. Maybe we can see the picture of a dead manatee on the cover of a Northeast newspaper on monday, most likely will be on the Today show or Good Morning America in a video claiming endangered species die under Bush's watch, and will just get worst under McCain. Obama will create life. He already has in Virginia. Never mind the fact that manatees are no longer endangered species. Won't bother the media though. You watch, every morning show and evening news on ABC, NBC and CBS will report this manatee death and it will be Bush's fault. Of course it couldn't be a species expanding it's range due to a population explosion. Nah. Global warming, end of the earth, Obama will be the only savior.
God bless the manatees.
