House Speaker Becky Lockhart, R-Provo, was flanked by a dozen
participants, including her counterparts from Idaho and Montana, during
a press conference after the daylong closed-door summit. U.S. Sen. Mike
Lee addressed the group over lunch, Ivory said. New Mexico, Arizona,
Nevada, Wyoming, Oregon and Washington also were represented.
The summit was in the works before this month’s tense standoff between
Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy and the Bureau of Land Management over
cattle grazing, Lockhart said.
"What’s happened in Nevada is really just a symptom of a much larger
problem," Lockhart said.
Fielder, who described herself as "just a person who lives in the
woods," said federal land management is hamstrung by bad policies,
politicized science and severe federal budget cuts.
"Those of us who live in the rural areas know how to take care of
lands," Fielder said, who lives in the northwestern Montana town of
Thompson Falls.

Here's the bones for my new novel.
That, above, might be chapter one. The rest, purely fiction
of course.
1
|
We were the
greatest nation ever.
|
2 |
You know where
we are today. Obama has administered the coup de grĂ¢ce to
our body, already gravely wounded by post Nixon government. |
3 |
Two choices.
a. Remain whole—all 57 states—and continue
on this course. Or—
b. Expel
from the union all
states in the utter thrall of Liberalism, thus creating two nations;
each free to trade with one another, but governed separately.
|
4 |
We are still
the greatest people. A new United States, strictly
obedient to the original United States Constitution and Ten Bill of
Rights will be reconstituted. |
5 |
In due time the
outcast Pox Amerika, continuing their course of
tyrannical government, and corrupting social experimentation, must suffer fatal moral and
fiscal
bankruptcy. One by one, then, each will revolt. One by one,
each will apply
for readmission to the Untied States. One by one each will be
evaluated. |
6 |
In
less than 100 years we will be whole, and free again. And
kick-ass.
|
Aside. The Communist Party's (CPUSA)
utter infiltration of labor unions in Oregon and Washington, during the
1930s, have a lasting legacy that makes both less than good partners in
any restoration. There
is, however, a good chance that, faced with the prospect of
honest government, they would bolt to California.
