Still not what I'd like to see, but better than what we had under His Slickness.

Klinton's forest rules cost us more lumber in fires than we had used for construction or paper products since the country was first occupied. The "pristine" forest envirowackos are just stupid anti human obstructionists. Mom nature will not be ruled, the forests will be used and replenished, it is only a question of what they will be used for, the generation of building material or the generation of ashes.
When enviros win, they lose, when they lose, humans win, the only constant winner is mother nature.

Don't get me wrong, I would LOVE to take my '02 Wrangler into the back country. By all means, log these areas, and reduce the fire danger. I am all for opening the woods to recreational use, as long as it is responsible use. I don't want to see tundra turned into bog, for instance, or jeep roads turned into playgrounds for the 'let's see how muddy I can get my jeep' crowd. Hopefully the people using the back roads will stay on the roads. If not, I can still walk in.

But environmentalists say the new rule would let the administration rewrite those plans to lift restrictions against development on most of that forestland.
No condos or high priced subdivisions for you in the national forests say environmentalists.
Oh, just a sec...
Never mind. /smartalec response

Alternately, but not as favored, start logging all the national forests. Those trees are worth money and we could use the cash to pay off the debt or to reduce taxes.
Quit giving good advice to those who refuse to hear it. You'll go hoarse after a while.
I know I am.
