SAN FRANCISCO (KPIX 5) — Got milk? Chances are it’s from California. There are more dairy cows in the Golden State than anywhere else in the country. But all that milk and cheese comes at a cost to the planet.

Tom Frantz keeps a running count. He says dairy farms have taken over his farming community in the San Joaquin Valley. “There are ten of them within what I call smelling distance of my home,” he said, noting they’ve moved in in just the last 10 years.

I guess the EPA shutting down a ton of agriculture to protect the triple decker slime snipe or whatever it was has let farmers to move into something different, dairy!

Yeah! Who needs milk, or cheese, or meat?

I will gladly sacrifice all these things, and more, on the alter of my global warming religion! Mother Gaia demands it!

Dairy farming is thankless work. Your whole life revolves around those dairy cows.

I was raised in Chino where there were literally millions of dairy cattle but only about ten thousand people. One of my childhood friends runs the association of Brown Swiss and Milking Shorthorns.

What is really bizarre is that I grew up being told how evil the pioneers were because they slaughtered the millions and millions of buffalo (yes, I know; bison)that once roamed the prairie. “ There was one continuous herd from Idaho to Arizona to the Mississippi.” Did these animals not fart and poop? Or did good environmentalist cherubs come down from heaven and carry off the climate polluting ozone destroying poop in silken handkerchiefs?

(did you ever notice the word ‘mentalist’ in environmentalist?)

Wisconsin is still the dairy state. Our milk and cheeses have won awards.

Gee, I drink milk, and I pee.

Do I quit milk, or cut off my p.....?

It is SO HARD (oops, no pun intended) to save the planet.

Reading the whole article shows that the problem is that Democrat politicians would rather get donations from the farmers.
So: Throw the bums out Franz!

Handed out by the evil Wisconsin Dairy cabal, no doubt.

(I just wanted an excuse to use the word "cabal").

That's why the Midwest has some of the richest farming soil in the world.
