Kempthorne – Good Choice for Interior Dept. 



President Bush made the right decision in nominating Idaho Governor Dirk Kempthorne to be Interior Secretary. 

Kempthorne will continue the good policies of departing Interior Secretary Gale Norton. Cutting back on federal land acquisition, changing the Endangered Species Act, increasing state and local participation in land use decisions, and increasing access to federal lands are expected to continue. 

ALSO – Here is another reason Kempthorne is a good choice!!! The leftwing environmental extremists are, once again, whining and crying and demanding that their diapers be changed. They DO NOT like Kempthorne, so that means it is just about certain he will do a GREAT JOB!! 

For example, the League of Conservation Voters reports that Kempthorne as a United States Senator had a 1% average score from them. From the League of Private Property Voters, Kempthorne had a 100% average score!!! So who represents your interests, the land grabbing anti-everything enviros or private property rights and access to federal lands? 

Kempthorne began working with Secretary Norton within months of her swearing in, in 2001. They worked together to reverse a terrible Clinton Administration decision to re-introduce grizzly bears into Idaho, which was guaranteed to threaten residents and cut off recreational and commercial access to public lands. 

They continued to work together right into 2006, when Norton handed over management of wolves to the state of Idaho, giving Governor Kempthorne and the state government the flexibility to protect people safety and rights as well as manage the wolf population. Kempthorne believes the people on the ground in the impacted areas should have a big say in how things are done in their back yard. 
President Bush did the right thing and he should be thanked. 

ACTION ITEM: 

THANK President Bush for nominating Dirk Kempthorne to be Interior Secretary. 

SPECIAL NOTE TO IDAHO: 

*** IMPORTANT *** If you are from Idaho, it is particularly important to let President Bush know he did the right thing. You Idahoans know Kempthorne best, so THANK President Bush. 

TO EVERYONE:
