Great post, Lance. You motivated me to post for the first time. I generally consider myself liberal as heck (see, I even feel bad swearing lest I offend someone).
But the point you bring up is something I believe in because it goes to the very the essence of hunting. Do you want to be an observer or do you want to be a participant? Anyway, viva particpants! I know some people who are even more liberal than me who have asked me to take them hunting because they understand the primal difference you pointed out.
Anywho, thanks for the post.

P.S. I hunt coues like I do most other things in life, not very well but very enthusiastically. Also, I think Bob is closet liberal. He's got the lingo down, man.
