I agree. The thing we all need to do is realize that people listen
when speaking respectfully. I don't like Bushes policies and what they
mean. But I also know we don't have much choice for the next 4
years. We either figure out how to get a long so we are heard or get bull
dozed. Apparently there are a whole bunch of people out there who really
like him. We will see if they still love him 4 years from now.
Gets back to the old saying: How do you eat an elephant? ONe
bite at a time.
Dialogue is important and that happens by listening and being
respectful. Butting heads is the fastest way to make sure that we don't
get heard. Now that is something to be concerned about.

I don't know this seems fly fishing related to me. The
president wants to lift/change protections on salmonids in the NW.
How is this NOT flyfishing related. Just because you don't want to
hear about it does not mean it isn't relevant. Thanks for sharing
