Sometimes you are President of the United States, and sometimes you are just one more confused guy on the bus.

That's what Barack Obama is learning as he struggles to select a dog -- the only Presidential appointment which has a better-than-zero chance of crapping on his carpet in the oval office.

Let's kill this dog because of what it looks like.

That's the position of Montana Democratic State Repesentative Robyn Driscoll, who has introduced a bill to eliminate all "pit bulls" from her state.

If her bill, H.B. 191, becomes law, folks in Montana with any pit bull-type dog (including all Staffordshire Bull Terriers and American Staffordshire Terriers), will have to surrender their dogs to the state, which will then euthanize them within 10 days.

I have written about population growth and U.S. immigration policy for more than 25 years. I mention this simply to say that this is not my first rodeo on this issue.

If immigration reform is now fashionable, so be it. I got my T-shirt when it was not.

Back in 1980, when I was more-or-less permanently camped at the Select Commission on Immigration and Refugee Policy, the entire immigration reform movement could have fit into the back of a Volkswagon microbus. Back in those days, when I spoke about the impact of U.S. population growth on the environment, not many people were actually listening. Maybe no one.

We have too many now. Stop illegal immigration and reduce legal immigration, and invest in family planning.

Let's stop population growth by only addmiting immigrants if U.S. population numbers start to fall.

Let's continue to grow at current rates; we can fill the Grand Canyon with trash, and invade the Middle East for more oil.

Technology will provide. I don't know how, but it will. So what if we lose open space and a little wildlife?

I do not worry about population growth because the Rapture will cure all.

Jemima Harrison, the producer of Pedigree Dogs Exposed is furious that PETA has stuck its ugly maw in where it is not wanted, and is not needed.

Her message to PETA: Shut up and go away ... and maybe go to Hell while you are at it.
