#3 In addition, Obama's budget for next year recommends about $50 million for multiple agencies to help boost research, increase the number of acres dedicated to pollinators' conservation programs and boost funding for research on pollinator losses.

Land and land use are his targets. If Robert Mugabe had a son.....

#4 As a bee keeper I should be pleased. However, all that money is going to California or his political pals and will do little to help agriculture. Kind of like the stimulus money to shovel ready projects, or Solendra.

#5 Considering Obie's relative success rate up to this point, maybe we should look into training spotted owls to pollinate things.
Or are we just going to import immigrate African bees? (You know, the mean ones?)

#11 So what's the welfare payout for a queen bee and her 100,000 offspring? Can she claim EITC on April 15?
