From tbt, the free newspaper put out by the Tampa Bay Times, part of an article about a plan to force boats to slow down in areas of the ocean frequented by manatees:
Tea party members showed up at the hearing to picket the proposal. “We cannot elevate nature above people,” said Edna Mattos, leader of the Citrus County Tea Party Patriots. “That’s against the Bible and the Bill of Rights.”
The mind boggles.
