[birdky] Re: Conservation/political posts

Having just returned from several days out of town (I don't want to make 
anyone jealous, but I attended the annual Autumn Birding Weekend at Cape 
May), I was interested to read all the posts regarding Sen. McConnell and his 
award for assisting in the creation of the Clarks River National Wildlife 
Refuge.  I'm not really much interested in reading everyone's personal 
political opinions, so I hesitate to comment on this issue for fear of 
sparking a renewal of the posts.  However, I did think it was curious that 
not a single post referred to the creation of the Refuge.  Nobody seems to 
dispute that Sen. McConnell sponsored the legislation and guided it through 
Congress over a period of six years.  I assume that most readers of this site 
would agree that the creation of the Refuge is a good thing.  Shouldn't we 
give credit where credit is due?
