Did'ya see John Kerry at the Denver-New England game in Foxboro yesterday?
So did I. There he was with wife Teresa and Pats owner Robert Kraft in the enclosed owner's box watching the game being played in the cold. Man it was so cold even Peyton Manning's passes looked like frozen ducks.
Cold or no cold, Kerry still insists temperatures are rising-at least in the perhaps, overheated owner's box.
Since John is a big football fan, why not give him tickets to a Packers game in Green Bay sometime next month like week 16. Let's see what he says about global warming then.
Instead of taking pot-shots at a fat fish floating at the bottom of a narrow well (Kerry), which don't you try explaining to California's drought-plagued agricultural growers that there is nothing at all to global warming, nothing to see here, move along... don't look at your dying apricot trees, just pay attention to how funny John Kerry looks...
ReplyDeleteI will be happy to explain it to you, Siarlys, Old Boy. The reason that there is no water in the San Joaquin Valley (once America's breadbasket) is that the politicos up in Sacramento diverted the water that once ran to the SJV all in the name of saving the smelt fish.
ReplyDeleteLook it up.
And the snail darter?? Both extremely valuable fishery resources.
ReplyDeleteThe politics in California really Smelts bad!

Jane, you ignorant slut... or whatever Jane said back to Chevy Chase before he had a sex change operation and changed his name to Chevette...
ReplyDeleteYou're wrong Gary. The absence of water in the valley is due to extremely low snow packs. Some people might believe that water just flows from nowhere, but California's rivers have, during all periods of known human occupation, been swelled by melting snow from the Sierra.
This is true of many parts of the world... if the global weather patterns don't pile up snow at elevations where it will take time to melt during the spring and summer, thus providing a natural reservoir to keep the rivers running, they are going to fall to a disastrous degree.
Of course once that starts, and its been going on for some decades in the southwest, then people start fighting about priorities for the little bit of water that is left.
elwood... you haven't read up much on Tennessee, have you? The snail darter became an issue because a lot of small family farmers in the Tennessee River Valley wanted to keep their farms and not have the big bad bureaucrats of the TVA take the land away to build an unnecessary dam and create a recreational lake for upscale sportsmen. The down home folks latched onto the snail darter as the only legal tactic available.
And you thought it was all some pointy-headed long-haired environmentalists...
Siarlys,
ReplyDeleteYou are confused and either talking about Wisconsin or some other California I was not aware of. The river that fed the San Joaquin Valley has been diverted to protect the smelt fish. People in California have been screaming about it for years and SacraMENTo refuses to listen.
