Rep. Rob Bishop of Utah, chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, said in response to this edict:
“Mr. President, I want you to know that we are saddened by this abuse of the Antiquities Act. It is sad that this entire process has been done in secrecy and in shadows. And Mr. President, I want you to know as Utahns, we will use every tool at our disposal to do the right thing — whether it be legislative action, judicial action, even executive action — because what we have seen so far is a poor procedure. It’s a poor policy and it reflects poorly on your legacy. As Utahns, we will fight to right this wrong.”

I've enjoyed watching the righties and their faux outrage on this thread for the past eight years. It's going to be a long two years before we get to see that again.

If Obama discovered a cure for cancer there would be a critical thread, maybe something like "Obama taking away jobs from doctors."
There's a political cancer named Obama. And it will be cured on 1/20/17. And we will celebrate and dance in the streets.
