HR 1505 - Hippies - our greatest threat

[Ben Lamb]

HR 1505 comes up for a floor vote today. It's packaged with 20 other bills.

1505 creates a 100 mile swath on both our northern and southern borders where control of public lands is handed over to the Department of Homeland Security, and the Border Patrol. Both the BP and DHS have said that this bill is far to expansive in it's power grab, and that it's not needed or wanted.

We had a little fun with that at the Bully Pulpit: http://www.mtbullypulpit.org/2012/06/give-me-liberty-or-give-me-death.html

Maybe if we just legislate mandatory shower stations at the Canadian border, the hippies would be less odiferous and therefore less offensive?

 

[Ben Lamb]

It's not the showers that worry me. It's universal healthcare. It's how we can't get rid of Alan Thicke and Alanis Morrisette.

What is SFW's stance on this hippie problem? Anyone?

 

[Ben Lamb]

If they can get some tags for them, they can fix the problem.

Aerial gunning.

 

[Ben Lamb]

You're clearly not thinking of this as a new revenue stream.

But can SFW cash in on this unless the get their own Helicopters? Or do the helicopters fall under the "doing good for wildlife and stuff" line item on their 990?

 

[Oak]

I'm sure they will find someone to "donate" the helicopter time. They had no problem finding someone to donate helicopter time in Alaska to get folks to the bear control camps. Now, what do they get for "donating?"

 

[Ben Lamb]

They get 5 bears on Corey Rossi's tag.

I, for one, like hippies.

Doesn’t seem sporting to blast bongo music out the window then take them out when they come out to hippie dance. Baiting?

Would the Rainbow Gathering be considered the rut?

You think a fly-by with a crop-duster loaded with AXE body sprad would have a similar effect to salt on a slug?

 

[Ben Lamb]

FYI - On the Hosue floor, Rob Bishop (R-SFW) just \blasted public land hunters and anglers calling them "fake."

What chance does this have of passing the Senate?

Oak weren't you and Dink going to go camping at Civic Center Park in Denver last weekend? Any pictures you guys would want to share from your outing?

50-50.

It's an election year and senators in border states that are running tight races might have to vote for it to avoid the huge influx of corporate cash that would help push them out of office.

Sad that this is what politics has come to: Make no decision without first deciding how they will screw you on it.
