Now, the CBOS are cutting funds for schools, parks and libraries, senior citizen services, and other social programs on the basis of a “revenue shortfall crisis.” However, there seems to be all the money needed to fund one high-priced study after another, always conducted by companies with strong Republican ties. Oh, and the CBOS is also great at ignoring zoning ordnances and planning board recommendations when it come to their friends wanting to build commercial development in former scenic and historic farmland areas.

As I remind people; Why are you surprised at what is happening? This is what Republicans do.

And here’s something even more ironic…the government and environmental groups are having to pay Plum River to actually PROTECT the lands that were leased to these environmental rapists!
Baucus, Conservation Groups Announce Massive Land Deal. I wonder hoe many of these acres RE-PURCHASED (likely at massive profit to Plum River [ex-Burlington Northern]) are going to have sub-divisions and McMansions nestled inside of them now?

Though I was kind of in awe of the technology. Syncrude does great spin.
