Thank you for your service, Nophears. I feel like I owe an apology turning a fishing and access to fishing post into a political rant, but I can't help it. I honestly had to stop myself from typing more on that last post and could have gone on a lot longer. At the end of the day the important thing regarding the original post is that the federal gov't needs to bear in mind that fishermen vote, fishermen, as a rule, are not limited to blue collar or white collar and represent the full political spectrum, and they are awake enough to know the difference between someone peeing on their legs and rain. Maybe a little bit of "Tea Party" action will keep the feds out of our fishing holes, huh?

Mixing Politics with fishing is like trolling a 6' Shark as bait to try & catch a Mackeral...

You know I had the perfect solution...

All these people crying about not having a Job & Wanting Free Healthcare... JOIN THE MILITARY! We'll give ya a place to lay your head, clothes, 3 meals a day, a pay check and yes, FREE Healthcare...
Oh wait, Obama cut the Military Budget to pay for Jobs & Healthcare....
Huh??

I didn't want this to get off on a Political rant either, I have nothing personal against Obama, Mainly just the Democrat Party in general, ANY President we elect will come with his/her own Political baggage & agenda's that we will have to fight for/against...

Look at Historically, EVERY Democrat we have had cuts the Military to fund other Pet Projects, Democrats cut the Military and Defense and take care of the People, Republicans boost our Military & Defense at the expense of the people.. That's why we flip-flop every couple years, to keep things balanced out.

Luckily I live in a "Red" State, even though it's been looking kinda Purple last couple years, but even our great Govenor Rick Perry, He fought Congress alongside with several other Coastal Govenors and the CCA to explain how extremely BAD the Magnusen Act & the catastrophe they are creating in the Gulf by messing with the recreational fishing and the Billions of $$ in revenue & jobs it creates... Kudo's!

But then we had the whole billions of $$ wasted on Trans-Texas Corridor farmed out to foreign interests fiasco thingy.... What was he thinking??

Even in Socialist & Communists governments not ALL of the people are Happy, they just get "silenced"...
