Wow its been along time since I have been on here. Ok so lets see what we have going on oh ya just really quick on our soon to be new Governor, I like Gary Herbert I have meet a few times and he was nice to me and all those who came up and talked to him. He was in line with my view points. I am not a fan of Huntsman at all, I was till he started to go off the reservation. The main problem I had with him was his environmental policy's to combat so called global warming.
We also have the senate race which have been in the news between our current senator Bob Bennett and Tim Bridgewater and Mark Shurtleff. I don't know what do here I DO not like Bennett at all he has not done a good job at all representing Utah. How dumb does he think we are? just because he held up some of Obama's appointees we will come running over to him? I don't think so, I will be supporting someone other than him. On the other hand we have Mark Shurtleff oh boy, could someone run to the cameras faster then him. I am not sure how I can support someone who spoke at a Pro illegal immigration rally, and he is our attorney General?

I just wanted to comment on one of Utah’s state lawmakers Rep. Michael Noel, R-Kanab. Here is what was reported by the Associated Press


4:34 PM MST, February 6, 2009

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A state lawmaker says he wants to reclaim Utah's lands and resources from the federal government so the public can use them for recreation and energy development.

Rep. Michael Noel, R-Kanab, says he's declaring another Sagebrush Rebellion and he's also drafting a bill to make it a state felony to try to stop legal development of federal and state lands.

The bill is a response to environmental activist Tim DeChristopher, who in December successfully bid $1.7 million for 13 parcels at a lease auction for oil and gas drilling in Utah.
Environmental groups blasted the auction, parts of which have since been invalidated by Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, saying it threatened the state's wild lands. DeChristopher has acknowledged he made the bids with no intention to pay for the leases he won.

I for one support this bill, I think what Tim Dechristopher did was on the boarder of eco terrorism. He stopped the leases that could bring money and more jobs to Utah. There is nothing out there where the leases where being auctioning off.
Now the problem is our Governor, Jon Huntsman, he should have vanes bulging out of his for head over this. This was a clear over reaching of the Federal Government and the new Obama Administration; but of course he doesn’t care, he is a populist anyway. Furthermore I hope this Tim (tree hugging) DeChristopher gets put in jail for this.

No oil for you.

Yesterday I was looking and reading the story's of the day on the Internet, and behold I saw a story, one that is no big shock. You may remember sometime ago the land for lease here in Utah for oil companies to drill down near the southern part of our state. President Bush signed an executive order stating it was ok to sell these leases so we could start drilling for badly needed oil; well today the Obama administration said uummmm no we don't want you to drill for oil that we need so we donʼt depend on other nations. Ok I added that last part, but that does not change that fact that we need to drill drill drill, off the coast, here in Utah and everywhere else there is oil. We have found so much oil here in Utah and South Dakota it is unreal. I am all for alternative energy sources donʼt get me wrong, but the fact is what we are trying now is not the answer. Bio, solar and wind do you know how many solar or windmills it would take to produce what we use in oil? It would be a lot. Bio fuels cost more produce then it would to use the oil, hint we use more resources to get the bio then just use regular old oil; not to mention that we are burning our food, can anyone tell me how that is good? The truth is oil is cheap (Right now) and is easy to get, we use oil for so many things it would blow your mind. Do you really believe Obama when he said he is going to get us off oil in 10 years? I donʼt, and I donʼt care how aggressive he is about it.
