Tim DeChristopher is my hero
I saw him on Rachel's show and he went above and beyond just demonstrating. He the economics student at the University of Utah who pulled a supreme monkey-wrench on the selling of oil and gas leases outside Utah's national parks and monuments.

Here is the clip from the show..

Mr. DeChristoper's willingness to go to jail for his beliefs is highly commendable. I also applaud his ingenuity and courage.

2. No, not all. But years and years of Orin Snatch and the Mormoms have
made everybody pretty suspicious about anyone with a Utah driver's license.

:sarcasm:

P.S. I have Chuck Hagel and Ben Nelson. So I can feel for ya.
