not me, I'm not into masochism. A bogus position that'll be filled with rubber stampers much like the commission.
I know someone who sat on the WAG for many years and it was very frustrating and IMO a waste of time for him

His removal is bad sign from the dept(or governor). If we're thinking of the same person. We're headed in a very bad direction and systematically being silenced. I think we fail to support each other and it comes back to bite us.

Seems like he spent hours every day fighting issues for hunters and cattleman and he really thought the department was listening to him and that he was getting through to them. So............many years, hours spent, letters, meetings etc., etc., and in the end I believe it was for nothing. If I ever said something bad about the department he would tell me I was wrong and they are listening to him and that he is getting through to them. Thankless job duty, wouldn't wish it on anyone after seeing how much he put in to it.

Not enough of them will have a splash of Pendleton with him, or understand the BS he delt with advocating for us.

Guess I was a little to close to the situation and saw what he put up with and dealt with for many years. Gaddy - If you were referring to me I wasn't meaning to come across negative by any means, if someone wants to jump in and give it a go I wish them luck. Just don't like all the lies and deceit and seeing someone pissed on when they truly cared and tried to make a difference.
