Certainly agree with #40- thanks for flagging me; been offline most of the day trying to download some of those "free" files for a backup browser I'm working on ( and using now...)--

Do you think President Bush had much to do with the decision?

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Thank you!

[Barnacle]

...the endangered suckerfish for which the water was diverted last year doesn't need as much water as previously thought.

Well, how do ya like that?

Congratulations!

Here's hoping you don't have any Spotted Kangaroo Rats running around.

"Do you think President Bush had much to do with the decision?"

I do, after all we have been FReeping him since last spring about this issue.
And over 30,000 people signed the Petition to turn the water back on.

More news.

Congratulations! Wonderful news for all of you who worked so hard. President Bush spoke of it when he was there and I was wanting so much to believe him.

And I want to believe this is the end of the farmers' problems because to buy seed, reseed into prepared soil, etc., etc., is going to be very costly for those farmers who haven't gone out of business over this fiasco.

I think the reversal decision was at the highest levels of Interior.

AMEN Praise GOD!!!

Our prayers have been answered. I just hope it isn't too late for most of the farmers there!!!! GOD BLESS KLAMATH FALLS FARMERS!!! You are the backbone of America!!!!

I plan to spend the summer in Calif., I hope to get to meet some of you great Calif. freepers!!!!!

What wonderful news for the farmers that have been able to hold on.
I feel so sorry for the farmers that have already lost their farms due to
the inviro whackos and their cause.

Thanks Tonkin for the flag

[The Mayor]

Bump!

[MissAmericanPie]

What wonderful news, but what a shame that these people have had to go through all this to use what belongs to them legally anyway. The E.P.A. needs to be cleaned up and all liberal U.N. workers replaced, deported, ran out of town on a rail, tar and feathered....

[John R. (Bob) Locke]

Good on ya for your efforts, amigo!

Sort of wondering if the bureaucrats aren't hedging their bets, though.

Give them the water they need and are entitled to Mr. Bush!

[christine]

BUMP!! :):)

[ForGod'sSake]

"It's water. There are never guarantees when dealing with a natural resource," he(Keys) said.

What has been the historical record of water availability for the farmers. Until the wackos came along, were there seasons the farmers went without because of drought, etc?

Thanks for the Ping!!!WE ARE STARTING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!! So many people working behind the scenes for an incredible cause. Thanks to Free Republic and a lots of other great groups and individuals America is starting to be America again!

Eight years of a puker in office and we almost lost the country to the greenies. Battle is far from over, but we are making progress!

[wcbtinman]

These govt people sure are arrogant. Doleing out water that isn't theirs, and saying that "it should be enough" as though they hold the keys to life and death.

Time to feed the hogs.
