Sequoias are crushing the competition!!!

Fortunately, nobody was hurt.

A 200-foot-tall giant sequoia tree fell along Sequoia National Park's main road, crushing this vehicle parked in a turnout alongside the road Sunday, Aug. 17, 2003, in Sequoia National Park, Calif. The tree, believed to be approximately 1,000 years old, fell Sunday at about 5:15 p.m. along the Generals Highway, several miles east of the Giant Forest Museum, said park spokeswoman Alexandra Picavet. No one was injured but the Jeep Grand Cherokee was destroyed, Picavet said. (AP Photo/National Park Service)

Carefull what you take joy in . . . next they'll be targeting car owners who modify their cars becuase they waste resources and or increase emissions as well . . .


Too bad it wasn't a SUV worthy of the sacrifice . . . .

Rush Limbaugh spoke about this today. Rush hates three things:

1. Any Democrat (quote: "Democrats hate democracy) Crazy Idiot!

2. Anybody against the tobacco industry.

3. Anybody who dislikes SUVs. So he went on a diatribe about the Sequoia be offended by the poluting SUVs (like trees can think?) and it just decides to uproot itself and take revenge.

Remember, this comes from a guy who just yesterday said that the worlds supply of oil is INFINITE. Burn all you want!
