Lets hope the above will become just a nightmare of what the Watermelon Jihadists did to America's forests.

Interesting how fast liberal morons will switch their votes when they see the political writing on the wall.
When, oh when, will American's wake up and force these morons out of office? Oh, I forgot, they are mostly too stupid thanks to the indocrination from the NEA.
At this rate we'll have to have a Constitutional amendment to state 2+2=4.

Interesting. Now I'm reading that Cantwell is one of those holding up a vote on continuing the Internet tax moratorium. I guess she's written Seattle off also.

I think folks ought to quit bashing the Bush administration and the Congress for the fires. What did Bush know and when did he know it?... Can we blame Arnold?

Nothing inspires politicians and bureaucrats like the power to regulate. Let them regulate potential sources of wood smoke on public land. Or better yet, make it all private and then let them regulate potential sources of wood smoke from large privately owned tracts of forest land.

The only one that sort of mystifies me is Bayh, since he's been painting himself as something of a moderate these days. Who is the FReeper who took out that big road sign last year thanking the environmentalists for making the 2002 fire season all it could be? Could that person make one for these 14 names and similarly thank them for the loss of lives, homes, and trees that could have provided income for all the American loggers out of jobs?

I appreciate all help provided to pass the Healthy Forest Bill 1904. It is unfortunate that it took loss of life and devastation to bring about change. The evidence proving the case for thinning is amazing. Everyone should read the Process Predicament Report. It gives numerous examples of the forest problems. It is available through this link.
http://www.fs.fed.us/projects/documents/Process-Predicament.pdf It is long, but very informative.
I would also like to reccomend that the next destructive fires that occur be named after the following people.
Bayh (D-IN)
Biden (D-DE))
Cantwell (D-WA))
Carper (D-DE))
Clinton (D-NY))Can't you just imagine the Clinton fire roaring through the Forest??
Dodd (D-CT))
Durbin (D-IL))
Harkin (D-IA))
Jeffords (I-VT))
Kennedy (D-MA))
Leahy (D-VT))
Reed (D-RI))
Rockefeller (D-WV))
Schumer (D-NY)
Also, I bet the favorite Halloween Costumes this year will include, Paul Bunyan or any Logger, along with the Fire Fighter costumes.
Thanks again for all your help! I am a licensed insurance agent in Arizona, I have a business called Help Has Arrived and I help people with a variety of projects, I handled my parents insurance claim after the Rodeo Chediski fire ate their home. I can offer assistance for people who have to deal with the loss of a home, send me an email if you are interested. I almost feel sorry for the insurance companies, (In addition to the homeowners), They will be devastated by this fire. I saw many people turn in bogus claims for smoke damage, trying to get their"share" of the bounty. The entitlement society we live in teaches people to avoid responsibility for themselves. I would encourage everyone to remember this, we won't have insurance to turn to in times of need if it is abused! Policies will pay based on the contract you are insured under, first step is to read your policy and then start an itemized list of lost/burned items.It is very time consuming, but necessary with most claims. I can be reached through

Looks like Barbara Boxer (AKA "The Gnome from the North") saw the orange, flickering light, and voted to pass the bill!
