Northern Rockies Ecosystem Protection ACT (NREPA)

06.30.2009 Hobbies

There are too many people that think that wilderness designation is the best way to protect the forest from man. It is not. All it does is limit the management’s ability to manage federal lands and fails to make a better healthier wilderness. It fails to enrich biodiversity, it fails to keep the forest healthy, it fails to create positive economic input and it fails to provide access to everyone’s land.

A List of a Few of the Many Blogs I Read

06.29.2009 Internet

I love the internet for reading. I really don’t like sitting down and reading a book as I would rather read on the internet. I think its because I think the information is stale. The real time of the internet allows to follow things in a more timely manor.

Ronald Reagan Understood the Peril of Socialized Medicine.

06.22.2009 Politics

Since last Friday Twitterers has crucified CNN for their Iranian election coverage. Just do a twitter search with the hash tag #CNN Fail. The tweets blasting CNN has been huge.

Is it Barack Obama or Jimmy Carter?

06.16.2009 Business

It isn’t enough that Barack Hussein Obama is pimping his plan at every dog and pony show but he has now commandeered the All Barack Channel (ABC) to run his govermercial care bull. In addition to running his govermercial care the President is failing to provide equal time to the other side of socialism. How convenient? Where the hell is Michael Moore and his in convenient hijacking of public TV channels? The FCC wouldn’t allow this shenanigans during an election. The RNC has filed a complaint to ABC News but was mocked.
