GOV. DANIELS Attempts to Pitch and Deal for Campaign Contributors who want to legalize canned hunts in Indiana ... (Note to reader: check and see what group gave Gov. Daniels $20,00o.00 in campaign donations .....) http://www.fortwayne.com/mld/journalgazette/14055708.htm In a last minute attempt to either get cash (taxpayer) payment to 15 special Hoosiers who have invested in shooter bucks (live trophy antlers) as a secondary business, or allow these same operators a MONOPOLY for seven more years to cash in on their hundred thousand dollar investments, Daniels continues to pitch for "compromise." Hey, do you think getting $20,000 in campaign donations from the game farmers (cutely named Sportsmen's PAC) www.indianacampaignfinance.com could be influencing his sense of "fairness" for these special Hoosiers? Ya think, just maybe? THE INDIANA legislature NEVER AUTHORIZED this business - even though the game operators tried every single year since 1999. THEY NEVER GOT a bill authorizing them as a legitimate business in Indiana. NEVER. Maybe, just maybe, they should have taken those EXTRA hundreds of thousands of dollars and put them in a CD or under the mattress until THEY GOT LEGISLATIVE APPROVAL. It is COMPENSATION ENOUGH that they get to keep their earnings from this unauthorized "business." They took a risk. They circumvented the laws. They voted for Daniels. Now they want cash (taxpayer) money to to go away? That is commonly called EXTORTION. How many other businesses can circumvent the legislature for years and then DEMAND A CASH BUYOUT or MONOPOLY FOR ANOTHER SEVEN YEARS? Apparently there is no 800 number at which to leave the Governor a message. So - cough up a few cents or use your cell phone minutes:
(317)232-4567
No sweet deals for special contributors. Our wildlife policies are NOT FOR SALE.
It is legal to sell deer for meat, urine, antlers, and semen. So - let them SELL MEAT according to USDA slaughter laws.
BUT - No spearing and shooting retired circus and zoo animals. Not in Indiana.
No matter HOW MUCH THEY CONTRIBUTED TO THE DANIELS CAMPAIGN!
Calls needed today and tomorrow. They are working feverishly to get taxpayer cash or a monopoly by the weekend. Only YOU can call out the Governor on this ......
