I listened to this press conference and I agree totally with Chuck! Also, my hole generalization of the conference, was a basic, "Stop all further development of all lands, those already in 'public' ownership and provide more funds to strip rural landowners from ownership, as well as to NOT allow local governments the right to make decisions on land use!!!!!!!!

Is it not pitiful? See the underlining to "how good the Clinton Administration" was? Ugh......

[countrydummy]

Again, note the underlying "How 'good' the Clinton Administration was" bunch of junk"!

Like I said in my comments, the whole thing was geared to strip landowners of their lands, and local governments form having any say so in their states and communites....I wish I knew how to find a full transcript of the whole press conference, anyone got any ideas?

You are wc Alamo-Girl! Can you believe all of this junk? First, the more money these groups get to take---no steal--land from rural landowners, the happier they are of course, but then again these groups promise increased recreation thus increased economic growth for the areas...but the very first thing that always happens is the decrease in recreation opportunites! Thus the local economies lose income, and tax base! Thus the LIES! of such groups! The local economies fail, the landowners lose, the tax bases go to H*** and the rest of the landowners not yet affected---their taxes go threw the roof! School bond levies have to be passed to continue to provide our children with the equipment they need.....what a destructive vicious cycle!!!!!!

The Bush administration also received low marks from the environmentalists for allowing the continued use of snowmobiles in Yellowstone National Park.

I hope environmetlalists find more issues to give Bush more low marks.

I am totally assuming that this was a joke! :-) Course we all know the dangers of assuming anything! LOL LOL

IMHO, it has nothing to do with environment and everything to do with power, i.e. wealth and control. These groups, and everyone they've managed to get hired into the system, align themselves hard with left-wing ideology and the Democrats. It reminds me a lot of the hypocritical rationale of feminists.

I so agree! Yet it also has everyting to do with promoting and agenda that will take lands from those that are the best stewards of the lands and that is the individual landowner! People like me that work hard to clean up my environment and have done a dang good job doing it, and now these nuts wants to take it from me and my family because we have in the name of "preservation"! Makes me sick! I would love to show how the lands of the landowners along the New River's boundries owned by individual land owners looks compared to the properties that the NPS owns! I will tell you this, it is most shameful what the NPS has done!!! A virtuall trash dump!!!

I am now told that this post was posted yesterday, I am sorry, I did not know that, can you fix it? I am not a moderator, and I am sorry, I did a search, but did not find it....can you add these posts or a link to the original post by Nucluside or yoe?

[Alamo-Girl]

I just posted a link to this thread from the previous one. I'm not sure whether it will do any good, i.e. whether the moderator will delete this thread, lock it or what.

[countrydummy]

thank you, I don't want to take anything from anybody! You are so nice!
