FOLLOW the MONEY!! Who is paying these political prostitutes off?
I think these guys want to return to the Horse and Buggy. I would bet the house that their biggest campaign contributors are environmental groups. I have said before and I will say again “the biggest threat to the U.S. Economy and National Security is the Environmental Lobby and the Politicians they buy”.
I concur.
I hope the Alaska delegation will try and shut down all Oregon logging.
The reason for this is they are being led by anti-humanity environmentalists, who are under the false impression that mankind utilizing the Earth’s abundant resources is harmful to the planet.
If you hate other people, despise the “unwashed masses”, envy the rich and successful, worship unspoiled nature, and only want you and your friends as the only humans in it, you might be an environmentalist!
The environmentalists have a lot of campaign money to throw around, and democrat senators are the cash catchers.
The error, of course, is thinking that producing oil out of the Artic regions will environmentally harm them. Modern technology allows human beings to tap these resources with a minimum footprint and applies multiple safeguards.
And why should the US government have veto power over a private company that has paid and acquired mining rights to an area? As long as that company works within the law to provide those safety features described above, why should any senator care? BECAUSE of the anti-humanity environmentalist gold, of course!
Politicians and press flaks toss these kinds of terms around all the time, with absolutely nothing to back them up. Ok Senators... Exactly why is this decision "unacceptable?" Then, please explain explicitly how this decision is "irresponsible." You accuse your opponents of these kinds of actions, back them up with real reason...or we'll see who it is that is being irresponsible, tossing around unfounded accusations.
