JeeeeeeeeeeZUS! I can't believe how idiotic some (most [all]) of our politicians are. Currently, Rep. Pete Olson (R-TX) is pushing a bill to overturn the Antiquities Act (the act that Teddy Roosevelt and numerous others used to establish the vast majority of all our National Monuments and Parks) and allow drilling for oil in National Parks, including Yellowstone. What in happy h*ll is going on in this country?! Fortunately, the bill is not expected to pass the Senate or the President, but the fact the people are even SUGGESTING a thing is a serious concern. How long will it be before the political conditions are just right and a bill like this actually passes? We need to stop being so freaking obsessed with oil, like, yesterday. I'm normally pretty conservative, but the things most "conservative" politicians are talking about lately is down right horrifying.
