Salazar wants to bring back the CCC under a different name, Youth in Natural Resources, young people working on our nation's trails and parks, and the Conservatives want to call it Obama's Hitler Youth. Excuse me while I bang my head on the wall.
Abe Lincoln was wrong, he should have let the Confederacy go.

I could be wrong but wasn't national parks Teddy Rs baby?
When your done banging your head take a sec and your homework.
It's YOU people, YOU liberals that see nazis everywhere.

Here, let me do a minor rewrite, how about that the bulk of Americans, liberals and conservatives who go to work, serve in the military, pay taxes, go to church and generally provide the solid back bone of what has made this country great. Next time you want to pretend over half the country doesn't exist, don't.

Politics aside, Winnemucca is a cool little town, with just about anything you would want, and a low crime rate.
I almost bought some acreage there, even had preliminary house plans drawn up.
My wife grew up in Nevada, says no effin' way is anybody going to get her out in the desert ever again. Something about watching the wind blow tumbleweeds across the desert when she was a little girl.

My wife grew up in Elko, we own land in various places in Nevada. I am fortunate, she loves the state. There is a lot of profound beauty there, just get up in elevation.
Ya'll know that archetype symbol of the west, the tumbleweed is not a native plant? It is a Russian import.
