Gonna be so much armchair quarterbacking on firefighting and forecasting weather events. Bunch of walking, talking Dunning-Kruger charts, happily backing clown political theater from a clown governor.

I keep getting heavily downvoted for pointing out that while the loss is tragic, the lodge is not the reason that people flock to the Grand Canyon from all over the world.

Yeah but you gotta be asking the important questions, why did they put the lodge there in the first place, huh? 

Worth investigating.

I can't believe Obama did that to us. Will his reign of terror never end?
