Green kooks would rather see the forest burn than allow a single board foot of lumber produced. Someone might make a profit, and they can't tolerate that.

Critics said in advance of yesterday's trip that Mr. Bush's program would undercut environmental laws and not provide the money necessary to protect communities from wildfires. If Slick Willie had proposed this the same person would have hailed him as the next Teddy Roosevelt.

We not only need thinning, we need clear cutting in key areas. These make excellent man-made fire breaks. I'd rather see a clear-cut area here and there with lush forest all around it than a charred moonscape. We're going up in flames here in Montana, and over the past 20 yrs the enviros have stopped thinning, cutting, roading, trailing in so many forests that are now tinder boxes, thick with dead overgrowth and undergrowth and inaccessible. This must be stopped. Montanans are mad as hell and we're not going to take it anymore.

I have a rhetorical question. Why should senators from New York or Maine or Massachusetts or anywhere for that matter have a say in what Arizona does with their forests? The federal government should not own any of this land. Congress has no constitutional authority to own this property.

Look around, the country side is burning down around you and the laws you morons are claiming ain't working .. if anything you critics are doing more harm t the environment

Thanks to the Anti America/American, Watermelon Jihadists in Oregon, most of last year's trees killed in the fires due to their schemes have not been harvested.
Notice how this year's fires which again are due to about 20 years of Watermelon Jihadists schemes are not getting much media attention. The mediots know that each big and out of control fire scares the moderates who still have a brain.
Time for sarcasm here. "This again proves that there is no difference between GW and the Goron and the republicans versust the rats!" (Sarcasm off!)
Anyone who still puts out that mantra that there is no difference should be banned from posting due to a severe mental disturbance that prevents reality from being observed.

All Bush needs to do is declare the collectivist federal forests national disaster areas. Then he goes and grabs the money from FEMA and gets the necessary job done. If eco-fascists complain - and they will - Bush should throw a carcass of a roasted Bambi and spotted owl on a table and hold a news conference.

Just fund enough to stomp on these cockroaches and the communities threatened, left to themselves, have the common sense to do what is necessary to protect themselves.
Just throw any "official" who interferes (after firing him, of course) and the problem takes care of itself.
Before 1972, I recall no great handwringing about dealing with the fire threat.
