Issues of concern to people who live in the west: property rights, water rights, endangered species, livestock grazing, energy production, wilderness and western agriculture. Plus a few items on western history, western literature and the sport of rodeo... Frank DuBois served as the NM Secretary of Agriculture from 1988 to 2003. DuBois is a former legislative assistant to a U.S. Senator, a Deputy Assistant Secretary of Interior, and is the founder of the DuBois Rodeo Scholarship.

Stop giving your money to the enemy
Take a look at this list of company political donations.
Some may surprise you, like Levis Strauss, whose donations went 97% to Democrats.
And as far as Levi Strauss I quit buying their products when they closed the local factory in Tyler, Tx and moved it out of the country. It cost a little over 500 folks their jobs.
It was only a small sacrifice...never liked their jeans anyway.
No real surprises there for me. I feel a bit sad that the Tea Party blogger had to refer to political parties as "the enemy" but at least he was bi-partisan.

No more Quarter Pounders? Oh woe is me.

Me neither. They just didn't fit right and the bottoms bunched up on my boots.
