Senate priorities: There are 550+ Trump nominees backlogged for confirmation and this is what they vote on. These nominees, if confirmed, would allow more “draining of the swamp”. Not only Ryan should go, so should McConnell.

Mr. Natural sez... Gee I don’t know what Mr. Natural would say.

Back in the seventies when I was up in Alaska I meant bartender up there who was touting the .458 Winchester magnum as THE round to use for both moose and Bear. He said if you want to hunt Moose, plant roses moose love roses. He said if you’re hunting grizzly your first shot is to the hips which puts the grizzly on his butt and as he sits there on his broken hip he raises his paws in the air and growls mightily while you Blow the heart from his chest with your second shot. He swore by it. I scouted for trout instead.

In the late 90’s I was again up in Alaska working a healthy terrestrial based antenna rehab project for Alaska state and OGA’s. When we surveyed antennas that were situated in very remote areas we would go there either by a landing craft or sometimes a helicopter and we always had a heavily armed guard with us because the Bears were a big issue.

I was told that in some areas where bears were protected that when the Bears heard a gunshot they would equate that with a fresh-kill and would head towards the gun shot looking for whatever game was bagged. Some Hunters would not shoot these bears for self-protection they would just leave the area and let the Bears have the game. But my point here is that the Bears were accustomed to hearing gunshots and overtime learned that there was some free meet to be had with little effort.

I think there might be a time window for cancelling Obama rules, where if the Senate doesn’t cancel them, they become permanent and harder to repeal.
