Obama to publicly name San Gabriel Mountains a national monument today (Oct 10 2014)
Los Angeles Times ^ | Oct 10 2014 | Louis Sahagun

Posted on 10/10/2014 11:40:42 AM PDT by fifedom

residents within and near the monument's footprint, say they've been kept in the dark about the effects of the designation, and fear that the new status will hamper growth and fire safety. (A)bout 150 people protested Monday in front of the Pasadena office of Rep. Judy Chu (D-Monterey Park). Many said they were unsure about its potential effects on private property rights, flood control and emergency services.

And the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors recently approved a resolution opposing a monument designation in its region, where there has not been a public meeting held to discuss the issues.

The federal government has no right to this land. This invasion of private property should be challenged in court….but unfortunately, the judges are all part of Big Government, too. America was never supposed to be this way.

“All the conservatives who sat home in 2012 are now reaping what they sowed.”

And for good measure, watch them sit out the next two elections because some candidate doesn’t meet some conservative standard, etc.

Well and thusly, like magic, it will give them something to gripe on FR about ...

A few more legacy hungry democrat presidents and the entire land mass of the USA will be a national monument closed to everyone except politicians and their wealthy friends.

Sounds like a good idea for a book.

Any large deposits of soft coal found in the area? If so then that Malaysian guy may have a new friend in the White Hut.

No, but there is probably lots of lead precipitated from the LA smog

Don’t eat the dirt

Heavy Resistance to Chu-Obama Plan to Nationalize the San Gabriels


Unfortunately, probably won’t make any difference. Chu won the district 64% to 36% in 2012. The district dips down into the LA basin to pick up most of Pasadena.

Not planing to sit out any election, but I’m not voting for a RINO. Your attempts to blame conservatives for Obama’s actions sounds like you are still in the denial stage. The GOPe has insulted the base and needs to work on fixing that. Blaming the base is NOT a good first step.

Any vote for someone other than the Republican is a vote for the Democrat, Harry Reid and Obama........period.

Your short sightedness has helped to bring destruction to this country......thanks.

Not blaming conservatives who sat out the last two elections for Obola’s actions - he/it is what it is, which was obvious long before he left Chicago - just for his ascension for which they are partially responsible.

Sitting out an election/voting for someone other than a Republican amounts to the same as voting Dem. Better a RINO then a Socialist Dem, in my opinion, if not just for the psychological blow to the Dems.
