The MBTA needs to be revisited on a conflict of (basic) laws basis, along with the validity of the USFWS' mission statement. The 'people' in this country were ment to rule, not the government, and NAFA has become the govn't tool to subvert this.

Beebe and Webster are what they are and as Brad said, we remember the good, generally, with a few that hold old festering grudges. As the board has pointed out, they have honored these 2 with an award. I have no doubt that there plaques will honor them on the "Wall of Rememberance" at the Archives. To me, Beebe and Webster are whom they are and are not the issue, but an example of what the issue is, as is the Golden Eagle(just for you Dan, allmost put goldie.) issue.
Well put. I don't have any answers. I'm burned out. But again, well put. I agree with what you wrote.
