The San Francisco-based Sierra Club, perhaps the nation's most prominent environmental group, also denied that environmentalism was to blame.

"Some public officials have tried to blame environmentalists for the forest fires" burning in Arizona and Colorado, the group said in a statement. "These attempts to scapegoat environmentalists are a disturbing display of cynical politics."

"Scientists have determined these fire problems stem from three problems: nearly a century of fire suppression that removed the natural role fire plays in healthy forests, an extreme multi-year drought and decades of commercial logging that removed large, fire-resistant trees," said the group.

The Sierra Club LIES !! !!

I recall seeing TV ads from back in the '60's ~ "Only YOU can prevent forest fires!" ~ that were run for the USFS sponsored by and underwritten by the Sierra Club.

Ping.

Club Sierra has been the key enviral organization in blocking existing fire roads and any new roads into their Druid Cathedrals for over a decade.

They have pushed the zero tree ever being used by man aagenda for decades. They have pushed the zero fire maintence for decades. Their card carrying Druids, (we used to call them Forestry People) enabled these agendas 24/7/365 on our tax $'s in their Druid Cathedrals, (we used to call them our forests). Club Sierra, also, spends vast sums to elect enviral Poster boy/girl governors, senators and congressits to push their anti humana/American/American agendas up and down any orifice in their way.

Like their no drilling for new oil any place including the most recent one, ANWR in Alaska. It takes big money to buy elite senators like Kerry, Da$$hole, Boxer, ChiFi and other rat enviral senators.
