Environmentalists have cheered the decision by the Obama administration to tap Recreational Equipment Inc. CEO Sally Jewell as secretary of the interior, a position to be vacated by Ken Salazar.
“In Jewell, President Obama chose a leader with a demonstrated commitment to preserving the higher purposes public lands hold for all Americans – recreation, adventure, and enjoyment,” Sierra Club executive director Michael Brune said in a statement.

Of course she gets the nod from environmentalists.
She’s made a living selling GoreTex to rich hippies who parade around the country saying they’re all about the environment(see OWS), etc. And they get to do that because their parents don’t want them around, so they give them access to a bank account and a credit card and throw them out of the house(see any PHISH, Widespread Panic, Trey Anastasio concert).
They get to do that until their folks tell them its time to grow up and then they put away their patchouli oil and move back to Westchester, North Jersey or Beacon Hill.
Criminal ELF terrorists are cheering this. They’ll be elevated to respected status, within 4yrs.
Counting coup? Gloating?

The irony of REI is, it was founded as a Seattle area co-op by climbers and hikers who were tired of buying gear at high price stores.
The price of gear sold there today - especially if it has a logo on it - is painfully high.
But then if you don;t pay taxes and have your medical covered by the government, I guess you can afford it.
Anyway, I digress....
her found her in his binder full of liberal, activist women!
>commitment to preserving the higher purposes public lands hold for all Americans
No, not for Americans that use guns or motorized vehicles.
Yet another ecofreak forced on America.
I one time pointed out that hunters and fisherman contribute more to conservation and the environment than the tree huggers. It did not go over well.
People like her have been ruling our world for some time. They sponsor most of what you see, hear and read. They are the gatekeepers of candidate choices. They have their fingers in every locale. They’re obsessed with control.
