PLEASE.....PLEASE...PUT THOSE DANIEL BOONE PARKWAY SIGNS BACK UP. EVERY SCHOOL CHILD KNOWS THE CONTRIBUTION THIS EARLIEST OF KENTUCKIANS MADE TO OUR GREAT STATE. THIS HAS BEEN A VERY SAD AFFAIR.

Congressman Rogers is paid $150,000 base salary. In the past 4 years Congress has voted themselves a 4% pay raise each year. In fact, the pay raise is automatic unless Congress votes it down. He is paid very well by our tax dollars for his services.

Daniel Boone is a legend. He did so much more for Kentucky for so much less. What next, renaming the Daniel Boone National Forest to the Hal Rogers National Forest?

It is not just the Boone Relatives that are furious about the changing of the Daniel Boone Pkwy name. As a native Kentuckian, I am appalled and wonder what Gov. Patton could possibly be thinking of to even suggest such an idiotic idea. Must not have been thinking ....AT ALL
Louie Nunn should be commended for his suggestion. He is a true Kentuckian.
