One of my fellow students asked our professor (who was nationally known), “Could you sue for…?”
The professor replied, “You can always sue. The question is, Can you win?”
Why not pave it all? Save us all the trouble, pave it and build a string of McDonalds.
Obama: Oh, another GOP lawsuit? Toss it on the stack.
So the Utah AG thinks he can steal public land?
Utah’s public lands deserve stewardship…
I believe we’ve identified a serious flaw in your position. Whose lands?
And in this case I believe the answer is a resounding “No” is it not, OC?
Of course, that’s no reason not to waste copious amounts of taxpayer dollars. (see Kobach, Kris)
Well, you see, Obama isn’t a real President because he’s black. So, nothing he does actually counts.
In other, entirely unrelated news, I really hate this idiotic racist GOP.
Darn, I was hoping they would auction off the land around Bundy Ranch. 640 acre parcels to the highest bidder, proceeds to the Office of Nation Debt.
Why would any R complain about that?

Riding roughshod over Cliven Bundy and his ilk isn’t such a bad thing.
Hahahahahaha no.
“[T]he Administration should look for ways to strengthen schools, pave roads, and build the local economy.”
- The GOP wants to abolish the Dep’t of Education. Why is it suddenly the president’s job to strengthen schools? [rhetorical question]
- Most roads, even in Utah, are the responsibility of the local municipality, county or the state.
- This, from the UT gov’s FY2018 budget proposal, p. 79-- “[T]he state should exercise caution to not become overly reliant on federal funding and the attached strings…”
The Utah AG is a whiner.
Is Prez Obama farting also an egregious overreach of flatulence? wtf…
POTUS should not do this … or nominate Supreme Court Justices either —
Come and take it.
Exactly… the President’s powers to designate national monuments is pretty iron clad. I don’t think even later Presidents can rescind it.
But, you know, have fun bloviating, guys.
