Why Do Republicans Hate America's National Parks?

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Is there some reason the states can't control their own parks? Why do they need to be federalized?

The only people who can afford or are interested in visiting national parks are the 'Makers' IE those who kept their pricks in their pants, their face in the school books. In other words the REPS.
The 'men who pee sitting down' are too shit scared of getting anywhere neare then their big screen to 'nature'.
It was hilarious a few years ago in a National park camp site. One evening sitting around a large communal fire there wer about fity of us just looking into the embers. All perfect strangers. Someone said: "Not to cause any trouble but how many people here voted for Obama?" Not one hand went up. Then a huge laugh.
Nuff said.

I suspect it might be for the same sort of reason you Liberals New Messiah hates America (as a whole).

Hey, if you can assume something about Republicans than I can assume anything about Your New Messiah that strikes my fancy and my assumption has credibility exactly equal to yours.

Suck it up.

Republicans hate any land they cannot log, mine or drill on

The picture above is how the far right guarantees Dem victory in national elections.

I wonder if they are paid Dem operatives.

CrusaderFrank, Stephanie, and 007 may be such.

We see the results of the privatization of prisons, elder care services, foster care, and so forth, and you ask such a question.

The federal property belongs to We the People, not the states and the special interests.

I assume that the AUTHOR of the OP gets it already.

But the short answer to the faux question offered in the thread title (taken from the DailyCrapagandaKos), "Why Do Republicans Hate America's National Parks?" is simple.

They don't.
