I assume they don't taste like raspberries...

Chipotle raspberry ants, sounds good to me!

Another source of survival food to consider as Bush's economy crashes?

As are conservatives.

I wonder how a conservative properly prepared would taste with a
raspberry ant glaze?

Maybe Cheezy will have to switch from ham and cheese sandwiches to
other alternative food sources to survive the $4 gas he is in denial
of.

In the first paragraph of the article you'll see them referred to as "crazy
rasberry ant ". Note the spelling of rasberry...they're called that after
Tom Rasberry, an exterminator who apparantly has been fighting them for
years. They've got nothing to do with raspberries. FWIW.

Global warming has some good points too.

Global warming is also leading to the decline and extinction of
conservatives and the rabid Republican Party..

Named after a Mr. Raspberry, not the taste.

I think he discovered them first. Got the honor ???!!??? of the name.

Now people curse his name.

No known eater or hunter or killer.

Other ants - live side by side - no issue. Most battle for an area.

You should probably worry about getting $4 first, before you worry
about spending it.

Jerry...I am impressed...I didn't think with that No Conservative Left
Behind education you got in the trailer park that you could count to
4.

Now be a good Republican and go out and play in Iraq with the rest of
the sheeple.

Since they eat fire ants thats entirely plausible.
