That's ridiculous! Enviro whackos and their cohorts are very strategic in seriptitously subverting our freedom to enjoy the outdoors and even our own land. They play politics for their own reasons and I have seen attitudes influenced by their non-sense that is so disserving to land owners/land users and unserving to anyone else.

The truth is that enviro whackos are succeeding, through the current administration, in taking the freedom away from many who use land including the actual land owners. Well, I love the outdoors, I enjoy spending time away from population, and I like being able to own my land.

The Sackett family of Idaho owns a half-acre lot in a residential area near Priest Lake and wanted to build a home. But after excavation work was begun the EPA “swooped in” with a “compliance order” that requires them to undo the excavation and restore the “wetlands,” and then leave it for three years at which point they could seek a “permit” that could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Or they could wait for the EPA to prosecute the alleged Clean Water Act violations, which could result in penalties of $25,000-plus per day.

According to officials with Pacific Legal Foundation, the Sacketts’ land has no standing water or any continuously flowing water, and they would like an opportunity to challenge the EPA’s “wetlands” determination in court. However, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, the most overturned court in the land, said before a court could issue a ruling on the EPA’s order, the family would have to go through a years-long, $200,000-plus process of formally applying for a federal wetlands permit.

Supreme Court halts EPA bullying
03/22/2012

In this administration, the 9-0 Supreme Court decisions highlight the degree to which the president’s policies are far outside the mainstream, both legal and political. If you can get Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Antonin Scalia to agree that the government has overstepped its bounds, you know that the administration’s disregard of constitutional and statutory boundaries is as egregious as it is obvious.
