I looked that up, denverpost.com . W looks like he's using a carpenter's saw, which is pretty silly. You might use a bow saw for light work, probably a chain saw for any major brush clearing operation like W's supposed to be promoting. I have a distinct memory of Reagan doing a photo op with a chainsaw at his range. A quick search couldn't find a picture, but I got this confirmation: reaganranch.org And in the tool shed, one can see the McCulloch Pro Mac 850 chainsaw that Reagan frequently used to clear trails and cut logs. That guy knew how to do photo op. Also found this comparative reference, again not flattering to W: Think of all the recent images of presidents outside under the clouds: Bill Clinton jogging into McDonalds. George Bush the First zooming in his cigarette boat. George Bush the Second picking his nose at a baseball game. Ronald Reagan with a chain saw. webcenter.gorp.aol.com I also found this story on the "wildland fire plan". nytimes.com . Doesn't sound particularly substantial, but at least it's not another salvage rider "Forest Health Preservation" bill. The problems caused by 60 or 80 years of misguided "Smokey Bear" policies aren't going to be fixed easily or quickly.
