Guest opinions on water compact; Stand up for what's wrong
It takes courage to stand up against something that is totally wrong. Here is an ode to every irrigator and every person who has stood against the injustices contained in the proposed CSKT Compact, now fully exposed by the Compact proponents themselves, and the recent Tribal lawsuit against “everything and everybody” in Montana:
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” --Theodore Roosevelt, 1913
Justice, like truth, will prevail.
