Senate vote public lands sale

I've emailed Lee what I think of his public lands efforts, directly but respectfully. I also told him if he persists, while not a UT resident, I will send $ to his primary opponent in hopes he loses his seat.

I've also asked Bentz to hold the line, which I believe he will. I know some members of that family, they are genuinely good people and he is a man of principle. I have no doubt his no vote will stand.
 
My reps are knob slobbers and sent me canned garbage responses.

They won't miss a second of sucking on the boot heel, I reached out to MN, SD, and MT reps.
 
Unless Lee introduced new language I think this is no longer included or am I incorrect?
I believe you are correct but Lee said he was going to try a third rendition. I would keep up on your senators as he could sneak something in last second.

A nice sentiment. But don’t forget the law of unintended consequences. A dark horse primary win will likely put an anti-American socialist as Mayor of NYC. If you think defenestrating any candidate you disagree with on a few issues will necessarily result in a better result for every other issue, you are not thinking clearly.

Regarding Mike Lee, is there any issue people agree with him on? He is scum. Anything would be better than him.

As a whole, yea, there are a few things that many people agree with him on.

I posted in another thread but when it comes to politicians it is hard to find one that you agree with on every single thing. Lee is no different. I disagree with him on this stance yet agree with him on others.

Here is a link to my post about why Utah keeps electing him. Post 36.

I’m thinking plenty clearly. My hope is he will have a strong challenge from a candidate with a good known track record. Then rational choices of whom to support can be made. Won’t be any anti-American socialists being nominated in a Republican primary in UT.

This is pretty important for people to start getting okay with again - Reagan and earlier, legislative accomplishments were made by building what were called Floating Coalitions. There was no 100%ism. In Congress, someone who "only" agrees with you 85% of the time isn't an enemy - they're one of your closest allies.

Lee's pulling some scummy stuff with the dirty way he's trying to get this land sale through, which speaks more to his character, but he might be extremely important for Utah to keep if they want him as Chairman of the Natural Resources Committee and voting 90% or 95% of the time in ways that help Utah and its people.

Can you name 5 of his positions on issues other than this bill? Neither can I.

And by your definition “anything” includes a political adversary that might be 100% pro public lands and 100% anti-hunting.

The Gods of the Copybook Headings are speaking again.
