It appears that liberals once again prove without me doing anything that they are just as dogmatic and overtly emotional like Born-Again Christian/Protestant trolls, completely incapable of even posting basic facts/statistics to counter the article that Vega posted.

I will get heat for this post and I will have Tulemutt/Loribee/Ruth4Truth alliance post more of their ad-hominem/sarcastic comments/insults flung at me for going against the liberal zeitgeist. Prove me I'm wrong and post objective facts/statistics for once rather than devolving into petty insults because you are too prideful to admit you are wrong.
Where in this post are any objective facts/statistics? Is it only up to others to do the busy work while you rant about lack of facts?

Edit: Aha, saw the follow-up. It is a Catholic Takeover thing! Oh well, Pope Frank seems a lot more sensible than this year's 'Pub class.

Besides that, the Republicans have been complete failures in stopping liberal pet projects like Feminism.
sounds an awful lot like a grandiose narcissistic fantasy

The question is
Should my tax dollar subside Almonds/nuts/.....farmers..., so Chinese can eat cheap Almonds/nuts....????
20% CA water is used by city people
80% CA water is used by farmers.

It really does not matter how city people use/waste the water. It does matter how farmers make money with our water.

The majority of California is NOT desert. How many times do we have to go over this?

True the southern part of the Central Valley IS desert according to climatologists' rainfall gradations (<10 inches average annual rainfall). Areas around Bakersfield and Hanford and Visalia, for example. Why it wasn't left to grazing.......as some parts of the Great Plains should have been, and those areas get MORE rain than quite a bit of the Central Valley.

Percentages are right, though. But the city people are kinda screwed because they don't have a lobby in Sacramento.

Most of the valley is semidesert, which makes a huge difference, as semidesert tends to be wet enough to rinse salts from the soils. The whole southwest third of the San Joaquin Valley which is true desert is too dry to be farmed sustainably, without huge environmental costs and wasted water. Pulling back ag. in that area would be better for the state as a whole. The other 70% of the Central Valley (the semidesert to Mediterranean parts with > 10-12" of precipitation) are not really where most of the problems occur.

Pretty ironic when you consider that a good chunk of that was, until about a century or so ago, submerged under Tulare Lake.
