Oh, yeah...don’t wanna forget those. Sweetwater’s economy would
be devastated if THEY were shut down. Just wait till an
endangered bird manages to fly into one of ‘em! Then they
won’t be so precious any more!

We have one of the largest oak forests in the world just west
of us in the Sandhills. None of the trees over 2 feet high...
good ole shinnery oak! :) Those lizards can stay there...it’s
a national park. This is entirely a bogus issue...as most of
these hand-wringing useful idiots KNOW they are!

Obama and the democrats could give a rat’s patootie about some lizard.
The only issue is how to destroy free enterprise, energy production, and personal freedom, of which Texas has a lot.

I was trying to find a link for that from TP&W. Shinnery is everywhere out west as is that lizard.
To: FormerACLUmember
Oh, there is more:
Midland City Councilman Jeff Sparks said listing the lizard would affect more than jobs. "Midland secured water rights in Winkler County and has been working on a way to bring that water to Midland, we've been working on it for some time. If you list the lizard, not only will we not have jobs, we won't have water. Then the endangered species will be the people of West Texas."

I was thinking of offering hunting expeditions in the Texas side with the sand hills. 4 seat dune buggy can carry 3 shooters. No limit, no guarantees.
In the past 40 years that I have run buggies over there I have never, ever seen one of these things.

This also affects higher education in the state:
Representatives with University Lands, which oversees the 2.1 million acres of land owned by the University of Texas System, said the listing would have an impact on higher education in Texas. Senior Geologist Doc Weathers said the listing could result in 1,000 oil and gas wells not being drilled and seven million barrels of oil equivalent in lost production annually.

This would pimp his favorite projectgreen mini-cars that are absolutely useless out here. Look for Obummer to push the Green Thing, like it would have survived these matters better

Lots of shinnery north of Abilene, too. My grandmother and
aunts used to go out into that area, because there were also
blackberries (or dewberries) growing there. Rattlesnakes loved
it there, too. Probably loved having the dunes sagebrush lizard
for lunch! LOL! Now....do we eliminate them for EATING the
silly lizard?

Oh, he will. He’s in the pocket of the ones who want them
sold and what better way to create a market for something
useless than to shut down the market for efficient machines.

We were hell on that lizard with BB guns along with the Six Lined Racer back when we were kids.
To: LUV W

Wasnt worth the effort, but they will be coming on soon
