Bush Hoses Cali Again!

Quote from TriPack:



Who created the $38.2 billion deficit? And when you're that far in the hole, what is another $0.43, particularly when the threat is so imminent?

The threat has been imminent for years, it has been a miracle that it didn't all go up yet. Davis, who is a pathological liar by the way, is just now asking for the money. It's a political move to get the blame off the insane environmental policies and actually put it on the Bush admin. This is right up there with "republicans want to do away with your social security".

You don't mean to tell me that Republicans want to keep Social Security, do you???

i have a question: Who really and truly gives a flying f#ck about a bunch of trees??? Chop em all down for all I care....and if anyone really and truly cares so much about these trees, please feel free to tell us all where you live?????.....seems like everyone wants to save the environment as long as they can clear cut some land for their home first.

Quote from Madison:

$430 million? notice this article doesn't say who's gonna pay for that?

don't these people realize that the iraqi's urgently need garbage trucks and post offices?!? turkey has to be bribed, and wolfowitz has a ton of really important photo ops to fly to.

these people have no sense of priority. they should go back to eating cheese and let the big boys make the decisions.

you forgot about the $3bln bribe to PAKISTAN.

Quote from TriPack:



Yes Einstein, but if it was such an imminent threat then by doing nothing the governor may have put the state government in jeopardy of both civil and criminal negligence for not doing anything to protect the citizens in four counties who were affected by the fires.

sounds to me like the gov did his job -- the feds control the forests, they pay for stuff like this with specially allocated disaster funds (which apparently sat in a bank the whole time) -- and dumya didn't do a goddamn thing about it.

sad, too. cali's a great state for the outdoors stuff.

Quote from jem:

...In the debate Cruz bustamonte said, it is not rocket science, we spent too much.

You tell me who was responsible for spending too much. Please I want answers. How the hell did this happen. California was a great great place. If this was not the democrats doing whose was it? ...Whose fault is it the California has billions in debt? The republicans?...So yes I blame Democrats but I believe I have the right to and I believe I am correct...

Let's not forget who's grown the federal government at record levels since his "election."

(I'm not disputing what you're saying; just pointing out that spending isn't the partisan issue most repubs would lead you to believe it is).

Wow, TM, I think that's the most offensive thing I've ever heard you utter.

May you enjoy your paved planet.

....Oh...Im sorry...im sure you a) won't ever own a home ( chop down the trees and put up a 3500 sq ft home?) drive a car or have a driveway??

what a crock....tell me one thing you have done to alter your lifestyle to help the environment?? driving a fuel efficient car?? big deal....where does your garbage go??? when you flush it what happens? how many people are living in a big home when a two bedroom would suffice?...the computer your using...is it solar powered??? or is their a powered plant churning out the energy on some sacred land that helps you scalp the mini's ???

take a look at all the chemicals in your house...hairspray, gel, cleaners, armor all, bleach, deoderant...now that you feel good about them not having ozone depleting elements...think about all the chemicals that are spwed in each and every one to make them....and the massive factories ect.....we only are concerned with the environment as long as it doesn't effect our lifestyle...anyone who disagrees is either a liar or a homeless person who has no choice
