About two more black outs and the Watermelon Jihadists who want no electricity made or transmitted will become as popular as Typhoid Mary's!

I'm waiting for the trial lawyers to start suing them for deliberatly endangering millions of Americans with their Watermelon strategy of no power plants and no new grids.

yeah...so we are in economic bad times, and the Islamists are causing 25 out or 28 wars and our gas prices are at all time highs, and yet WE ARE GOING DESTROY MORE ENERGY RESOURCES.....sure...

we need to get rid of the Bolt decision and the endangered species act or at least modify them both.......

we can only do that thru the courts....

[E.G.C.]

BTTT!!!!!!

If the Salmon recover much more, Salmon will be so cheap that that part of the fishing industry won't be profitable enough to survive-how many jobs and how many billions of revenue would be lost by that? Not to mention the loss of hydro electric power, one of the tested and true sources of clean and renewable energy.

Removing the dams is just another assault by internal enemies of the USA, that lusts for the demise of the country they despise.

Damn those damn dam damning, damnably dumb dudes and dudettes!!!!!!

Build more dams, raise fish in hatcheries ... hey, you enviromental wacko's, get a grip!

[SierraWasp]

"...hey, you enviromental wacko's, get a grip!"

Hey! They've already got a grip!!! On our legal system, our political system, and on our economic resources, our throats and especially on our children in government schools!!!

It's the rest of us that better come to grips with THEM!!!

[Gritty]

Build more dams, raise fish in hatcheries ... hey, you enviromental wacko's, get a grip!

You don't get it.

They want the fish to be free. We are the ones they want to bottle up in Soviet-style apartment blocs where they can milk us for out labor while they live and play, unfettered, in the pristine wilderness!

[blackie]

The environazis' are running scared. :-/

[Eva]

Right, there's no energy shortage, there's a surplus of clean energy. Maybe Bruce Babbit has alzheimers.

"They want the fish to be free. We are the ones they want to bottle up in Soviet-style apartment blocs where they can milk us for out labor while they live and play, unfettered, in the pristine wilderness!"

Their days are numbered, we have them on the run and they know it!

Thanks, Laz. Couldn't have said it better. Brucie needs to stay in his little comfort job with Washington Mutual....getting them land in "protected areas" to develop and just SHUT THE HELL UP!:<)

[AuntB]

You are exactly right and everyone seems to forget that this criminal was held in contempt of court for LYING.

President Bush was here in Pasco when he was campaining in 2000. He said he understood the importance of water and irrigation for agriculture. He pretty much promised us if he became President he would see to it that the Dams were not torn down. He is coming again on Friday and taking a tour of the Ice Harbor Dam.

The Salmon fish runs have been the biggest these last two years than they have been in many, many, years.

Snippit of article from the Tri-City Herald:

If you're bent on catching a glimpse of President Bush while he's in the Tri-Cities on Friday, your living room might be your safest bet.

That's because it's not clear onlookers will be allowed at any point within squinting range of the nation's chief executive save for their television sets.

His morning salmon speech at Ice Harbor Dam east of Pasco -- Bush's only public appearance during his brief two-stop trip in Washington -- is an invitation-only affair. And those invited appear limited primarily to area elected officials, community leaders and leaders in the energy and salmon recovery fields...............................................

Few Details on Bush

Why pick on Idaho? He should stick to his own state and make it miserable. Idaho is right next door to me and its a great state just the way it is.

[bedolido]

Why pick on Idaho?

Not positive on the exact percentage, however, the federal government owns 80-90% of Idaho land. You could put 10 or so eastern states in the amount of land they own here. Plus we only have 2 congressman and 2 electoral votes.

Washington Post 2/26/99 Editorial "...Judge Lamberth on Monday held Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt and Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin in contempt of court for the government's failure over more than two years to produce discovery material related to a class-action lawsuit by a group of Native Americans.

You're still a scumbag Bruth,and you,just like Billy Jeff Blythe got off WAAAAY TOOOOO EEEEEASY.

AUGUST 24,2000

Bruce Babbitt lied to Congress about his agency's rejection of a proposed tribal casino in Hudson, Wis., but did not find enough proof to indict him. Special prosecutor Carol Elder Bruce's 484-page report to a three-judge court, which was made public Tuesday, repeatedly challenges Babbitt's candor in 1997 congressional testimony in which he denied discussing the casino decision with a top White House official.

And to think,this guy has any credibility on any topic what-so-ever??? Hey Bruth, remember when YOU walked out of that 60 minutes interview???Well I do!
