California has not built a single new reservoir in over 40 years despite their population doubling in size. Only an environmental extremist would think that is acceptable.

Think about this: If a husband and wife had a 30 gallon hot water tank in their home and then decided to have 2 or 3 kids, do you think they would get a bigger hot water tank?

But it is okay for wind turbines to kill bald eagles by the thousands on the basis of a false premise.

Yes indeed. The federal government, using the epa policies, has shut down the farming in California by cutting off their water and shutting down the farms that produced 20% of American foodstuffs. The feds are becoming more evil and wicked every day.

There is no drought. The Saudis are stealing the water:
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-01-17/saudi-arabia-buying-american-farmland-export-agricultural-products-back-home

Not only that, they are buying up land. Ever wonder why Obama wants those ordinary American ranchers of fed land?
The Saudis are building mosques, exporting jihad “refugees” and aim to take over the US.
Axis of evil=Saudis, Obama, and their ISIL army.
No media outlet I know of has ever asked why Obama has NOT insisted that the Saudis take in these so called “refugees.”
Why?

He will certainly take the Central valley of California. But the leftwing drones in the cities vastly outnumber the rest of us.
