Diary of a Mad Voter: Joan McCarter. Public Lands Tag Sale. By Joan McCarter. New West.
While media talks about the horse race for President, it’s going to be a year of plunder on the public lands, and most it will not be covered. McCarter writes about what is going on, starting with the Bush Administration’s cynical ploy on the polar bears.
The President has given his last State of the Union Address; now for the last year of the ravaging of the countryside.
Dr. Ralph Maughan is professor emeritus of political science at Idaho State University. He was a Western Watersheds Project Board Member off and on for many years, and was also its President for several years. For a long time he produced Ralph Maughan’s Wolf Report. He was a founder of the Greater Yellowstone Coalition. He and Jackie Johnson Maughan wrote three editions of “Hiking Idaho.” He also wrote “Beyond the Tetons” and “Backpacking Wyoming’s Teton and Washakie Wilderness.” He created and is the administrator of The Wildlife News.

What can we do? ANy ideas?
“… last year of the ravishing of the countryside.” I think you meant “ravaging”. Unless you were, in fact, writing the beginnings of a public lands bodice-ripper 🙂
Thank you, John 🙂
