Water for a tourist site or water for the Yuma valley iwhere a lot of our vegetables are grown in the winter.......schools. Water for swimming pools for senior citizens or water for growing food.
AZ and the Colorado River are not designed to accomadate the vast number of transplants there. Its common sense. People just don't like common sense because its an inconvenience to them.
After 4 years in AZ, I've learned that most AZ residents are transplants who are too lay to
deal with the long winters and too cheap to pay for anything. If you want water, move to a place that has it. Its what would've been done 100 years ago.

Spot on. Just like the folks who live in tornado ally or those who live along the river basins. Every year we see reporters pushing microphones into the faces of disheveled folks just to hear "we will rebuild". These folks expect the unexpected. And it almost never happens.
I never read the OP's links. I never will. Simply because he insists that no one can have an opinion unless they do. But I could guess the article complains that the President is responsible for droughts and/or a town in the desert is arid and somehow the President is to blame.

Typical.
Or places that NOW have droughts and can't deal with them like Georgia? Maybe the Midwest when they have an epic winter and are in real trouble? Sheesh!
We in Arizona pretty much have to only deal with heat and or fires. Oh, I forgot, many places in the US with nasty winters also have that like the Carolinas and Minnesota. Chicago had a heat wave a few years back that killed 100's of people.
This is from a reputable source, CNN, apart from the biased source the OP posts from.
Quote:
The city sits in the desert but gets most of its water from springs in the Huachuca Mountains. Some of the springs are in a wilderness area protected by the U.S. Forest Service. From the Huachucas, the water runs 26 miles east to Tombstone through one of the longest gravity-fed water systems in the country.
Tombstone's water line was damaged in last year's massive Monument fire. The city says the feds are blocking emergency repairs that are critical to its survival.
In court papers, lawyers for the federal government say there's no emergency. Instead, they contend, Tombstone is using the fire's aftermath as an excuse to "upgrade and improve" its water system.
Kathleen Nelson, the acting ranger in charge of the Coronado National Forest, says the Forest Service has been letting Tombstone do some work, as long as it complies with the 1964 Wilderness Act.
...
Rangers say the Wilderness Act prohibits "motorized" or "mechanized" equipment because it might damage the wilderness and disturb endangered species. The conversation showed how far apart the city and the rangers had grown, and how frustrated the city felt in following federal rules.
This has nothing to do with Obama, the usual scapegoat in the OP's threads. It's an issue of what the laws now states.
As conservatives here always seem to crow, the government can't ignore the law when they want to. This is the consequence of following the letter of the law.
"This has nothing to do with Obama, the usual scapegoat in the OP's threads. It's an issue of what the laws now states."
That's the plan, worked for the mob, the boss was always insulated from the hits he ordered.
Obama's regulatory agencies by pass the elected representatives* of the people and establish rules. EPA is the worst offender under the realm of Cass Sunstein czar of info and reg affairs.
*Obama rails against the SCOTUS over ruling the elected representatives of the people to invalidate obamacare while over ruling the elected representatives of the people to pass obamacare.

NEWS FLASH: Obama didn't invent the Forestry Service.
He didn't invent the EPA either, which isn't involved with this issue.

I am sure that you will never have an inkling of the fact that that great President you like so well is involved very heavily in the attempts to kill the Constitution of the US and that the removal of the 10th Amendment would be more important to the people wanting this than any other amendment. Of course, you never read any of my links and will remain ignorant of how the problem of water for Tombstone is so heavily related to what they want to do to us.
Hey, thanks for not reading my links. Too many of them are aimed at educating people like you in what is going on so make sure you keep that left leaning brain of your from knowing what is coming.
Another ignorant member of the left lean has tuned in to demonstrate that ignorance. Ain't it something!!!!!
