1- While there are many advocates in Congress for selling our public lands Trump isn't one of them contrary to what the dems tell us he wants.......like on every single issue since he's been elected. Lest not we forget under Obama we saw the parks and monuments locked up tighter than a drum because he was proving a point about who held the power......... Trumps boys hunt and fish and that's a a big plus for most of us in that regard.
2- Gavin Newsome, blah blah blah...So Ca governor must have learned from the Pelosi's since they are related and he just got a 3.7 million dollar house that fell in his lap, that he promptly went in and took out a 2,5 millions dollar cash out refinance since refi funds aren't taxable..........Smell Fishey???????
3- I'm sure Wyosam is right in the middle of writing some letters to China about the exploitation of slave labor by Nike, Apple, the NBA and WNBA, and Black Lives Mattter accepting funds from companies so soiled by forced labor monies that in no time at all they'll be reeling with remorse and wanting to repent......cashing those big fat checks!
4- Sam could organize another letter writing campaign to the Democrat party itself pointing out the fact they've received donations from some of the same entities with their soiled hands filled with dollars from slave labor. Then they could also point out why they don't agree with the destruction of American monuments and building's being condoned by their elected leaders while ordering the police to let them do as they wish........which is the destruction of public property and in complete violation of our laws and their oath's of office.
5- Now Sam's admitted to writing letters when things aren't right and it would appear so much. (ooops, cut a little more than planned)
So Wyosam, hope you take this in the spirit intended not as a rebuttal of your thoughts, since in reality the Dems feeble attempt at bipartisan ship was nothing more that a diversion to show some positive accomplishments over the last 3+years and in the gesture of support I too will take it!!
1- yes, as I said Trump was on the right side of this. I give the guy some credit and you all still get your panties is a wad.
2- why does everyone assume I give a **** about the clowns elected by the state of California?There are a lot of folks on here who live in that state- their problem, not mine (beyond the idiotic things they do on the national level, which there are 535 of those clowns. Only 3 of them “belong” to me.)
3- I don’t wrote letters to China for a couple reasons. First, I don’t speak any of their many languages. Second, I’m pretty sure they don’t care what I think. What I do, is avoid their products as much as I can. I am stuck with apple unfortunately, and I DO let them know they should be keeping as much of their operations here as they can. I buy refurbished though, and keep those things forever, so they probably don’t care. As for the NBA etc, I don’t support any sports with my dollars, I’ve got better ways to spend my time. BLM- I support their right to peaceably assemble, and I do think there is still a lot of systemic racism in this country. The sh they are doing now isn’t doing anyone any good.
4- I will happily write letters to my elected leaders, whichever party they are in. Other than a couple county commissioners and on or two of my state reps, all my elected officials are Republicans. I’ve spoken to them all in person multiple times. When there is a Democrat in the White House, they get letters. On one occasion I spent some time in DC professionally and got to speak with several senators and congressmen from both parties from around the country. If they needed to get an earful, they got one, regardless of party.
5- Dem’s feeble attempts? Go look at the roll call votes. Without Democrats, Trump would have nothing to sign. This bill would be dead in the water. The Republican senator from the increasingly blue state of Colorado introduced this bill, and it was smart- getting this passed is a great way for him to represent his whole constituency, and almost certainly keep his job. Republicans had zero chance to do this unilaterally, since half of them voted against it. It had near unanimous Democrat support in the senate (2 didn’t vote, rest aye). I didn’t find a nice chart for the house vote, but I didn’t look very long. I didn’t need to look to see how Liz Cheney votes.
I don’t take any offense to social media comments. Some are more interesting than others, and I enjoy reading them if they are well thought out and not just parroted nonsense. We al have different beliefs (well most of us- there are those who just line up with the party line on everything, which are a waste of space).
we can argue about how we got it, but I think we can all agree this bill is a win for sportsmen, so that is something we can call a win while the country is in a tough spot (not pointing any fingers, we’ve certainly got some stuff to work out that isn’t getting fixed by either party alone)
