If I was mobile I'd apply.

Thanks, but I'd rather starve. Or more likely, get my house foreclosed and have to live in my little cabin in the middle of a national park, until pukes like whoever gets this job try to force me out. I figure that with the enemy in charge, it is just a matter of time before they start making a move against inholders again.

[308Mike]

Yeah, but if a freedom-minded conservative takes the job, there will now be someone on the INSIDE to keep this kind of stuff from happening and/or arguing against such actions.

The land belongs to the PEOPLE, NOT the bureaucrats.
