5. Yes she's corrupt, it's a prerequisite for BFEE membership.
I wonder how much she's enabled the rape and poisoning of Earth?

6. What a FN surprise! Again, they picked the right asshole to milk....

our public lands and forward their agenda.

Interior Secretary Dirk Kempthorne said Clarke had created more recreational opportunities for Americans and sped up ``environmentally sensitive'' oil and natural gas production on federal lands since taking over the agency in January 2002.

Just how the F public lands are better off with more mines and oil drills in our public lands I have no FN idea. It appears the oil and mining industry are the real winners here. Seeing how this is Bizarro World, it all makes sense.

``Our public lands, our forests and our landscapes are better off'' because of Clarke's service, Kempthorne said Thursday.

POS.

7. A lot of people now believe that the BFEE folks use reverse speech
or something that means the truth is the opposite of what they say. Like "Mission accomplished", Freedom is on the march", "our public lands, our forests and our landscapes are better off..." meanwhile, a huge Artic ice shelf broke off up in Canada yesterday...
