I just saw this CS review article on my google news.

It has a link to the executive agency document about it:

Nice link - more crap.

IF you can't dazzle them with brilliance - Baffle them with bullsh*t.

This forum is amazing...

I logged on to post the link to this article, and here is this thread at the top of the list.

Hopefully we can keep this kind of passion and energy going, because the fight of our lives is coming.

Our constitution is being overthrown by the enemy within, without firing a shot, specifically the 10th amendment in this case;

"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

Alas, even if the issue is left to the states, as it should be, our state is stabbing us in the back as well.

Sigh.
Hang on folks, it could get ugly.
Forever vigilant,

Willy

It may or may not make a difference, but they heard us....

Dear Mr. Peguinpower:
Thank you for writing to express your concerns about the Interagency Ocean Policy Task Force's recommendations for a comprehensive national policy for our ocean, coasts, and Great Lakes. I appreciate hearing your thoughts on this issue, and I welcome the opportunity to respond.

As you know, the Interagency Ocean Policy Task Force was established by President Obama on June 12, 2009. The Task Force is responsible for developing recommendations for protecting and restoring the oceans, coasts, and Great Lakes. After hosting more than 20 meetings with a broad range of stakeholders and interest groups including commercial and recreational fishing groups, the Task Force released its Interim Report on September 17, 2009 and its Interim Framework for Effective Coastal and Marine Spatial Planning on December 14, 2009. The Task Force is expected to provide a final report with all of its recommendations later this year.

I understand that you are concerned that the Ocean Policy Task Force does not explicitly recognize the role of recreational fishing in the stewardship of ocean and coastal resources and that you oppose the issuance of an executive order adopting the Task Force's recommendations. Executive orders are issued by the President of the United States. If you have not already done so, I encourage you to contact President Barack Obama to express your concerns about the Task Force's recommendations.

President Barack Obama

The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW
Washington, DC 20500

http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact

Please know that I recognize importance of balancing the protection and restoration of our oceans, coasts and Great Lakes with access to recreational and commercial fishing opportunities, and I will keep your thoughts in mind should this matter come before the United States Senate in the 111th Congress.

Again, thank you for writing. I hope you will continue to keep me informed on issues of importance to you. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please contact my Washington, D.C. office at (202) 224-3841. Best regards.

Sincerely yours,
Dianne Feinstein
United States Senator
