“It’s obscene!” cried George Lloyd, 67, of Placerville (El Dorado County), as he stood Friday at the Tunnel View lookout, a panorama of magnificence rising behind him.

McClintock will fix this, right? Yosemite's in his district. Or, maybe he'll just push to privatize the park service, or the park outright, right?

That'd be his first choice.

He's a useless Tea Bagger. He would sell the naming rights to all the features in the Park if he could. Just imagine on every map "Yosemite Falls by AT&T" and you'll see what kind of person he is. Some Republicans are trying to do just that, or worse; sell all our national parks, monuments, etc, to mining, oil, and ranching companies. Who ever pays the most (in campaign funds) gets it.
