Proponents of the Organ Mountains - Desert Peaks Wilderness Act are crossing fact-obfuscation lines reserved for the likes of Bernie Madoff. In the hopes that Senator Jeff Bingaman will somehow be allowed to slip this terribly misguided proposal through the lame duck session of Congress, radical environmentalists are now making claims that contradict all of the facts and documentation supplied by virtually every expert that bothered to make an appearance on News New Mexico. Despite their outrageous claims, the negative impacts that would be caused by this radical proposal are both far reaching and profound.
Sadly, rather than negotiate for a simple "Open Space" designation that would prevent any future development of the areas in question, wilderness proponents are now claiming this poorly thought out proposal will "strengthen" border security. And residents are now being warned in a new ad that Southern New Mexico will be LESS secure by NOT passing this ridiculous act.
We cannot ever recall seeing more absurd assertions regarding any legislation. Facts regarding the colossal folly of creating "Wilderness" rather than "Open Space" in the designated areas on the increasingly violent Mexican border can be found by clicking here:

These environmentalists are intellectually bankrupt and corrupt in telling the truth. You would be surprised how many of us are aware of this and dismiss them as loons and fools. It's doubtful this legislation will be voted upon let alone passed during the lame duck session.
Lets pray there's no vote on this measure during the "LAME IDEAS" session. Hopefully someone in the Sanity For The People Party is watching the fine print of the legislation being jammed through. Many of us would hate to hear Obama telling us one more time about something that was, "...snuck in..."
BTW, very nice picture there. It probably wouldn't look as nice with a mushroom cloud behind the back drop of the Organ Mountains.
I think I know where that photograph was taken. Isn't that where the filthy rich who don't pay enough taxes live?
