Even if the government would pay attention to its human constituents and restore the water to them, isn’t it kinda silly that a state with nearly 1000 miles of coastline has any problem at all with water?

I drives me nuts when Enviroweenies would see humans suffer to save a critter that virtually no one has ever seen.

The spotted owl put many a breadwinner out of work and the darned bird died anyway.

I’m all for stewardship but these clowns never consider the impact on human beings.

I say we throw a hose over the Oregon border and steal their water. They’re so high, they’d never notice.

This sort of institutional insanity makes one wonder if there is any hope for survival.

"This sort of institutional insanity makes one wonder if there is any hope for survival."

If we just figured out a way where the liberals died off first it might be worth it.

“As usual, government IS the problem.”

That’s right. As I’ve posted to past articles on the matter I believe it’s part of another one of Feinstein’s land grabbing schemes.

Jerry Brown used to say “I’ll take that under advisement”, or he was taking whatever the topic under advisement, and then wouldn’t do anything. That appears to be the tactic of Feinstein’s as well.

These clowns aren’t going to do a damned thing for the farmers, or the State but milk it for all they can for their own personal wealth, and power.

Didn't know they had Twitter for a DEC. :-)

Instead of just talking, a True Terminator Governor ™ would simply throw the lever that turns on the water and then post armed guards at the door. Let Judge Wanger try to enforce his idiotic order.

Arnie hasn’t the desire or the nads. A Tom McCormick would.

It’s criminal what the environazis, politicians and judges are doing here and all over the West.

That’s pretty comical, coming from an Californian. Besides, you might want to check on how well the farmers on our side of the Klamath Basin noticed it when their water was taken.
