Does Obama have any conscience at all?

even worse...if you are illegal alien, you can continue to fish on closed federal land and keep everything you catch and leave your trash everywhere....but if you are an American Citizen with a license, you'll be stopped, fined and probably arrested if you complain

In an earlier thread about parks being closed, Spence mentioned that if no one is on duty, no one is there to help in an emergency, so it's prudent to shut down the parks.

Here's the flaw in that excuse.

In Rhode Island, they pull the lifeguards off the beach, what, Labor Day? Do they prevent access to the beach after that? Nope. I'm free to go on the beach, and swim in the water. There might be a sign that warns me that no lifeguard is on duty, and that's it. The state is not liable if I choose to swim and get hurt.

No reason why the feds couldn't do the same thing with the WWII memorial (which is usually unmanned anyway, I have been there 8 times, and on only one visit did I see one ranger there). The only conceivable explanation, is that this administration is going out of there way to make this as bad as bossible, to stir up anger that Obama can direct against Republicans (which has had the side effect of plummeting his approval rating).
