  1. I see the Tribune story now has live links to DeChristoper’s web sites.

    I think almost everyone (except maybe the grumpy Deseret News) likes someone who was brave and stood up to the oil speculators and the corrupt Bush Department of Interior folks.

  2. It seems hypocritical and illogical that criminal charges would be brought against this individual because he does not have the money. If a drilling company goes out of business and defaults on a lease are they subject to jail and fines? I doubt it. This is just another example of how little power we have as individuals in our system of government, especially under the Republicans who supposedly are “for less bureacracy”!

  3. “…especially under the Republicans who supposedly are ‘for less bureaocracy’!”

    That’s because they have been successful in transforming this into a “corporatocracy” instead, right before our very eyes.

    “Corporate personhood” has to end, now.
