Liberals hate woodburners
Liberals hate woodburners, there too independent and free. Look at how asking questions about what to write in your paper is meet with political opinions?
In the 2004 presidential debates, John Kerry got in a dig , jabbed at Bush's nose. Kerry made the comment when Bush brought up the Healthy Forrest Act , Kerry's dig was Bush passed it because he had money invested in a lumber company.
The story turned out to be true, Bush was invested in a company that diversified moneys into several accounts, one happened to be a lumber company in the PNW that Bush had $575.00 dollars in, big deal.
Bush had a reply that just plain kicked Kerry out of the ring, he turned to his opponent and politely asked "
Why Kerry? Do you need wood?" fallowing that up with a snippet of Bush cutting/clearing brush with a Stihl 025 on his Crawford ranch. Showed a man people could relate to.
Liberals hate independence, they look at wood-burning as a means for mean people to pollute the air, a way for you to be warm and selfish as there is a baby owl out there somewhere sleeping in the snow because someone was selfish and cut down there home!
New York Times gives liberals there marching orders, here is an example of there work, and headline......
Malawi Is Burning, and Deforestation Erodes Economy
MALOSA, Malawi - Lovely and lissome, the masuku tree rises maybe 35 feet at maturity, its wood the hue of a rare steak, its branches dotted with sweet golfball-size fruits that ferment into a tasty wine.
Jeffrey Barbee for The New York Times
Joseph Singano cuts yet another tree on a burned-out hillside. Electricity would be a cheaper fuel, but few villages have access to power lines.
The New York Times
Once heavily forested, Malawi is only about 20 percent covered by tree canopies, and the pace of deforestation is faster than almost anywhere else.
Working just after sunrise atop a small mountain not far from here, Injes Juma and his nine friends needed less than five minutes to sever a masuku at its base and send it crashing to the ground.
Another five minutes of furious hacking with axes and machetes reduced the tree to a stack of five-foot logs, ready to be carried down the steep grade to the highway below.
Mr. Juma and his friends are loggers, members of a vast fraternity that has illegally laid waste to half this nation, mostly in the last 15 years, all to hawk firewood and charcoal at roadside stands.
Catch the idealism?
"Selling firewood just to buy a cup of soup for his starving children" should have been the title.
Just my prospective, but you could have a lot of fun with what ever the direction you take your paper!
Would you please share it with us when you have a draft and final?
