Time to improve your accuracy Doug...  Wise Use is:

                  Anti Environmental-EXTREMIST

... Not anti-environmental or anti-environmentalist as you ever so often like
to claim.

Oh Dougie...  There are some VERY valid private property concerns, such as
preventing those who think like AlGore from TAKING private property without
due process or due compensation.  Though the socialist nature of the
enviro-extremist movement won't admit it, it is private property, freedom and
free enterprise that made this great country great...

Funny, most folks consider anyone who owns private property a person who
SHOULD be concerned about private property rights.  Is it really that
complicated an issue Doug?


Now that you've spewed forth a lot of venom at Wise Use, why don't you
explain to the readers here about YOUR solution to environmental issues -
where BIGGER GOVERNMENT and more federal control (resulting in higher taxes)
is *the* only solution.



Cheers,

Pat
