Are all of the fires believed to be arson? Sorry if a dumb question...just not hearing much on the news.
Super serial picture of George Bush piling up brush in California right before he set the state on fire. Bush was heard to say "I hope some kids get hurt because I made sure they don't have health care". Shortly thereafter Bush was told that some American soldiers had been killed and he laughed really really hard. /spewing sarcasm off
First:
Dingy Harry is a crapweasel, and just proved it.
Second: Malibu burns all the freakin’ time, this isnt anything new. So Cal has fires EVERY Santa Ana wind season.
Third: Most of these folks DIDNT clear the brush away from their houses like they’ve been told to.
Fourth: California USED to have C-130(Prop-jet, more or less, being turboprops) firefighting aircraft. The FAA grounded them after a very tired C-130A with something like 25,000 flight hours had a main wing spar failure ( the wing folded upwards IN FLIGHT.. that can ruin your whole day)Now we don’t have those anymore. We have S-2’s, P-3’s, some older aircraft, etc. Unfortunately, the 747 and DC-10 tankers aren’t available for some reason, I’m sure they could be of great use at this point in the game.
Not to mention that the enviros fight any type of realistic fire prevention activity...
Oh geez...I’m 55 years old, was born in California and lived there for years and remember the wild fires every year. They will be followed this winter by mudslides when the rains come. It’s not global warming...it’s nature numbnuts.
Cheers
Moments later, when asked by a reporter if he really believed global warming caused the fires, he appeared to back away from his comments, saying there are many factors that contributed to the disaster.
What an ass.
Ummmm.....huh?
Lockheed C-130 Hercules. Complete with propellers.
Bad sign when a reporter asks if you “really meant that”.
Just like global warming caused Katrina, right? Yeah, that's the ticket.
Fire (Relationship to Global Warming): “Have global wildfires been increasing in response to global warming, as climate alarmists vociferously claim they have?”

Note: Unlike Gore's fictional Hollywood movies, the Cato Institute doesn't publish bullshit.
Hoping one or two of the liberal Democrats can read and comprehend the material but that is doubtful... so the pictures in the report might help...lol
Furthermore, the first fire was started by a fallen electrical wire... hurricane force Santa Ana winds can do that.
I just heard that one of the fires was arson. The perp's been caught.
No word on the 3rd fire yet.

LOL, what an idiot! The Colorado river basin is getting low because Vegas has a metro population of 1,777,539 which is about 1,777,509 more than it had 50 years ago. Not to mention it has more fountains than Rome and it's in the middle of a freakin' desert. More water is diverted from the Colorado river than any other river in the United States.
