Federal Takeover Of Our Coastal Fishing And Marine Resources?

Editorial - March 10, 2010 - Beaufort Observer

Ever heard of CMSP? We hadn't either until we read an ESPN Outdoors piece by Robert Montgomery.

So we did some research and what we found scares us to the point we've considered selling our boat and wonder if we're going to have to get rid of our fishing gear. We suspect the beer companies are equally uneasy about what lies in store.

It seems that President Obama has appointed a group called the Ocean Policy Task Force. The original idea was to plan Federal policy related to ocean fishing. But on December 14, 2009 the Task Force issued its Interim Report entitled: Interim Framework for Effective Coastal and Marine Spatial Planning.

The report is a stunning declaration of war against anything that touches our coastal areas... and going inland for many miles. This is all being implemented by Executive Decree. Not a single law is being passed by any legislature. A huge new federal bureaucracy is being created. Powerful new abuses of citizen rights are being planned. All compliments of Barack Hussein Obama, the Magic Marxist Messiah.

When did Obama become dictator?

What scares me is that I missed all the furor yesterday when this started. I usually read lucianne.com. However somehow this article from my own backyard slipped by. I only caught it when I saw it listed so high in the results of traffic from the previous day.

Who are these power hungry people? Not a single day goes by during which they fail to seize more and more power over our lives? For the North Carolina Inner Banks, this will be a disaster.
