Moonbattery Leads to Blood-Sucking Bug Epidemic
The envirowacko jihad against DDT has had effects other than the millions of deaths due to malaria it has caused in the Third World. Closer to home, New York City is under siege by a plague of blood-sucking bed bugs:
The number of infestations has increased more than tenfold in the last three years and no neighbourhood, no matter how upmarket, is immune. […] Bed bugs emerge from woodwork at night to feed on the blood of mammals. When they bite people they leave large, itchy welts on the skin that can cause considerable discomfort.
Complaints are up from 537 in 2004 to 6,889 in the year to last June. Why are we unable to control the population explosion among these repulsive creatures?
The pesticide DDT virtually wiped out bed bugs in the USA in the 1940s and 1950s, but after it was banned infestations increased again.
There is no problem that human ingenuity can't solve. But unfortunately, there's no solution that moonbattery can't prevent us from implementing.

On a tip from Ian from the EUSSR.

Is this a metaphor predicting a Democratic victory in 2008?
OT: outbreak of common sense detected at, of all places, the NYT.

Rachel was (is?) a stupid, evil bitch. The fact that she had help from the government in getting her lies accepted is typical, for our regulatory agencies who can set de facto law.
