Norton was interviewed on the Rusty Humphries KKOH talk radio program on December 11th emanating from Reno. It was clear from the questions by callers and Norton's responses that she was completely unaware and uninformed about the BLM/Ben Colvin case.

"I let Secretary Norton know that I had faxed all of the information on Ben Colvin's case directly to her office. Apparently, the censors in her office did not give the information to her," said Janine Hansen, Executive Director of the Nevada Committee for Full Statehood. "I asked her to read former Idaho Representative Helen Chenoweth-Hage's Final Report on the Hearing on the Jarbidge Road from the Subcommittee on Forests and Forest Health. This report traces the legal history of the land and explains how the Forest Service and BLM are violating the ranchers' property rights. Norton seems to be out of touch with the real issues in Nevada. Nothing has changed under President Bush, in fact, it is worse."

Norton doesn't know. Gee! What a surprise. NOT.

"The BLM's concern is fascist control of the ranchers, which means, private enterprise under strict government regulation.""

BY, This is EXACTLY what godgov is doing. Thanks for the bump. Peace and love, George.

Did you really expect a change? It's a one party country and they take turns as repubs and dems

How are these ranchers defining "their ranches?" Is it private land they own? Or is it private land they own, PLUS grazing rights on BLM land?

There's a BIG difference between the two definitions.
