If these lawsuits are bad for South Dakota, why are they good for Arizona?

Just like the anti-voucher Democrats who send their kids to exslusive private schools.

Naughty and not nice, Dysfunctional Daschle.

I'm not a lawyer, but it would seem that legislation of this sort represents a clear violation of the Equal Protection clause of the U.S. Constitution.

Not just from Arizona's perspective, but from a potential South Dakota litigant's perspective.

One of the cable channels showed a news clip from the fifties where they chronicled the lumber industry in the Pacific Northwest about clearing away dead brush, which "successfully decreased the chances of forest fires".

The Eco-Nazi's are forcing us back to the Stone Age.

Do we know the actual language that duplicitous Daschle added? Is it forestry/fire specific?! Remember the "mine deal" (another attempt at "enviro-exemption" for S. Dakota)...

"I guess being Majority Leader has its privileges,

I wonder what the Majority Leader is fixin' to do to help all the Citibank employees in his state who could be laid off. Enron Democrats

Senator Daschle's solicitude for Citibank goes deeper than the money, though he gets money, too. Daschle treats the Wall Street behemoth like a hometown industry. Two decades ago, Citibank lobbyists persuaded South Dakota politicians to be the first state to repeal its anti-usury law--an obstacle to charging sky-high interest rates. The state was rewarded by the relocation of Citibank's credit-card processing operations, now a major employer there. That lends political cover, but Daschle's loyalty also relies on personal connections. Former Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin, now senior executive at Citigroup, the parent conglomerate, is the Senate leader's personal guru on big-think economics. Did we mention that Citigroup was one of Enron's lead bankers and on the griddle itself? Or that, in his day job, Rubin beseeched a top-level Treasury official to intervene to save Enron? The bank's active concern for its biggest debtors in trouble does not extend to its little ones.

Let's hope that all the states who are and have experienced fires:
Arizona
Colorado
California
Texas
Oregon
and others
sue the socks and chainsaws off Daschle and South Dakota for discrimination.

Just a wild thought. Daschle is so dysfunctional, that I sincerely hope he gets himself un-elected.
