The fact that this was an informal forum and not a full bi-partisan committee hearing did not go unnoticed. Panelists and members of Congress alike expressed disappointment in the issues lack of bipartisan attention.
Its a shame that this isnt an official hearing of the Natural Resources Committee because this is a very serious problem as it relates to our federal lands, our federal law enforcement, but also to the safety and security of the nation, said Representative DeFazio of Oregon. Homeland [Security Committee] should also be holding hearings on this threat of domestic terrorism, but theyre not.
In addition to sweeping the issue under the rug, committee members blamed the rhetoric and actions of Rob Bishop and other anti-park politicians for fanning the flames of these anti-government extremists.
Democrats make do with informal forum because the Reich Wing is too busy wasting money on Benghazi's Hannity witness to investigate homegrown terrorists.
