Gov. Schweitzer urges conservation groups on against that "row of vultures."

Schweitzer, however, doesn’t promise any explicit help-

The “vultures” are the corporate lobbyists, according to the governor, but he says that his involvement could “complicate things.”

    “In most cases, we are going to play the cards as we go forward,” the governor told them. “Our strategy is to just let things unfold.”

    Ummm, what ever happened to “leardship”?

    Hey ya’ll

    Brian’s standing up for all kinds of things, primarily, his political career. Why should anyone expect anything different?

    I wish we could afford to put an ad in the New York Times discussing what a wonderful “leader” Brian has been on conservation issues.

Fantastic, here are the ground rules: No personal attacks, profanity, discriminatory language or threats. Keep it clean, civil and on topic. The Wildlife News does not fact check every comment but, when noticed, submissions containing clear misinformation, demonstrably false statements of fact or links to sites trafficking in such will not be posted.
