"Environmentalism was hijacked," he said. "The original people in the movement could arguably claim to be the largest grass-roots movement in America, and one of the greatest. People joined together to do good. Then they made a crucial and critical mistake: They gave power - unchecked power - to their leaders.

"We allow the Enviros to write critical legislation. We elected many to the House and Senate who just blindly accepted that what the Enviros were doing was good. Now we're unwilling to examine what the Enviros say and do to see if it is flawed.

"It is one thing for the Enviros to say, 'We are going to do good,' but if what they do creates profoundly negative impacts on the habitat and turns out to be unconstitutional, it is proof that the power handed to their leaders has corrupted them.

"Right now, taxpayers are paying for 'Green Bureau-babble,' which equates to power. The people who come up with these ideas are power perverts. They don't want to stand for election. They want the power without the responsibility. These people are a perversion of the republic."

Thank you, backhoe! What a refreshing article.

Thanks, this is one of my bookmarks!

I feel that we have about .000000001% of 1% of Americans awake and alert re the enviral nazis and their agendas of harm and death to to America.

They have gotten to their power with no controlling legal authority over them the past two decades. That accelerated and became even more deadly during the Clintoonian years. This is another legacy from the Criminal from Arkrazy.
