"For years, the enviromentalists have been stopping forest thinning with lawsuits because they hate the logging industry so bad. Well, pat yourselves on the back. Thanks to you, there's no trees left to log!"

"This is a notice to all those hoping to overthrow our state government: In the district representing Senator Pearce, we voters stand 411,000 strong! Granted, not all for Pearce, but you can bet over 20,000 are standing with him."

"The same folks who claim that E-Verify is too prone to error for employers to rely on, tell us that the government will handle our health system efficiently."

"The economy is slowing, but if we want to make the U.S. economy look great all we have to do is use the top 10 percent of Americans, our corporate leaders. According to newspaper reports, the top 10 percent wealth grew by 30 percent in the last year."

"Now that the Republicans have taken on the demon Planned Parenthood, the evil NPR and the dangerous consumer advocate Elizabeth Warren, where are the jobs?"

    ----------------------------------

    Sen. Russell Pearce in his Conservative District 18: With 20,000 that are standing with him out of 411,000. And where (recall Russell Pearce organizer) Randy Parraz said they collected 18,310 valid signatures by registered voters in the District. But, even if the recall election somehow succeeds to be this November, or next year in March (for removing Pearce from office) there will be the ‘District 18 run again’ in the November 2012 general election.

    First Venter:

    Environmentalism has understood the need for fire to keep undergrowth under control for more than 40 years. It was the US Forest Service who lead the way to prevent all forest fires, not environmentalists.

    Second Venter:

    Let's see what happens to SB1070? Now that Albama has passed its version, we just might see a split between cuircuits that will take the matter to the Supremes. Once SB1070 is either up or down, Pearce's legacy will determine his future.

    Third Venter:

    "Same folks," you say. And you know this for a fact?

    Fourth Venter:

    Someone out there, but on your thinking caps and correlate this statistic with history and the rise [and now fall] of the middle class.

    Fifth Venter:

    Yes, I assume your point is "It's going to be the economy, stupid!"

    Mr Whiting
    You can try and defend the Tree Huggers all you want but the facts show that Forest Service said mega fires like the Rodeo Chedisky fire would happen if the forests were not thinned and yet The Center for Biological Diversity sued to stop all thinning. That's why Heber had a billboard that called that group ( Environmental Terrorist ) for several years, so who should we believe an arm chair expert or someone that was actually at the meetings and knows the facts?
