A struggle worth fighting for!

Las Cruces, New Mexico; home to the most delicious red and green chile, the tenacious Las Cruces Bulldawgs, and New Mexico State University the mecca of higher learning in New Mexico and surrounding areas(sorry Isaac UNM has a long way to go). Within a couple of weeks from my departure of the land of enchantment I remember why I vow to come back.... the influx of new transplanted citizens who decide to start changing the socio-political make up to what they and their Eastern and California liberal school told them what to do.

As a native son with roots in New Mexico dating back to the early 1800's it is my duty to return and fight this radical liberalism plaguing our state. Direct leaders of this movement are the members of New Mexico Wilderness Alliance, Dona Ana Wilderness, Rep. Steinborn and the Eco terrorists of Earth First. Before my move back to college in Chicago, the Dona Ana Wilderness designation was getting hotter than the best green chile from Chavez farms. I was a little irritated with the fact that I could not stay and really take an active role in this fight. I am happy to know and endorse the great New Mexicans like Jim Scarantino and the People For Preserving Our Western Heritage who are combating these pinko idealists.

The politicians who are giving legitimacy to this liberal cause are Rep. Steinborn, Commissioner Osc...OH wait REP. STEINBORN!! He is the head of Dona Ana Wilderness and Southern New Mexico Director for New Mexico Wilderness Alliance, son of one of the most repsected individuals and past mayors of our great city David Steinborn(rolling the eyes) who would never use the power of his office to see the city plans for development way back when and then go and buy those proposed lands( East Mesa anyone?) to make a quick buck. Maybe it is because I am young and naive and that's what I grew up learning from the vast majority of loyal Democrats. I think there is something fishy with his involvement in this issue. He is the link to NMWA, which has been linked to the radical and idealist Earth First. There is more to this agenda; its not just about saving a couple of mesquite bushes and lizards.

Oh as I was saying Commissioner Oscar Vasquez Butler is not shy in his support of this liberal push for wilderness. I watched his smug populace smile while putting on a pro wilderness pin on his shirt at one of the meetings sponsored by Congressman Pearce. Mr. Butler has to have an opinion about everything and let everyone know about it because he is force to be dealt with... his hat is rather intimidating, A real John Wayne. heh.

I wish all my luck to the good folks fighting the good fight and hope that the people of Las Cruces see the real politics behind this issue. There is more to it than preserving the Organs, Robledos etc... These liberals want to rid any human existence on the land. Cattle ranching, agriculture, and the simple outdoor recreation we all enjoyed in high school will be eventually phased out if we let the left get their way. Fight on friends!
