Yes you are absolutely right.
American Thinker online mag (June 23) has a great article about the idiocy and also the willful destructive management practices the Corps have been practicing for years now.
I’m too clueless to know how to post it but the title is “The Purposeful Flooding of America’s Heartland.”
Devastating piece. They have some punk murderous bureaucrat quoted in the story saying the horrific flooding “may be prolonged headache for the small towns and farmers along the way but it is a boon for endangered species.”
That is about a half a step from the Bolsheviks justifying the starvation of Russian peasantry for the larger interest of the Revolution.
But the Commies, at least, wreaked their evil in false (and deadly) pursuit of a perfect society. These scumbags do it in the name of the plover, the ferret, the spotted owl, the snail darter.
Or so they say.
Here is a link to Minot’s tv station that is giving a minute by minute broadcast about the flood. At noon today they got the word that the flood level is increased by 3.5 more feet.
