Here's what some GOP types think of our SE Colorado ranchers
At the risk of giving these people undeserved blogxygen, I’m quoting part of what they had to say HERE in regards to the Army’s proposed annexation of land around Pinon Canyon. (To be followed in time by grabbing as much of the rest of SE Colorado as they can get their grubbies on.)
“The next photo that we want to examine is the Pinon Canyon photo that appears about 17 seconds into the video. That photo was taken right at sun up. The orange is the color given to the land as the sun’s rays go through the thickest part of the atmosphere. The shadows caused by the hills make the areas in shadow look more lush than they are.
No one seems to have thought of this when the photo was used, but anyone who uses the full screen mode on YouTube will see how unproductive and barren this land is. If more land is needed for maneuver training by the Army, it is hard to justify protecting this kind of land from that use.”
Yeah, it’s hard for THEM to justify. They haven’t lived on that land for generations. And they don’t even mention the ancient archaeological sites and dinosaur footprint fossils. If these wise guys can’t see any value there, how can there BE any?
