A Global Warming Question..................?

If the environ wackos would let the State clean out the schrub, there would be less field/wood/brush to ignight.

God help those who are in harms way I might add. Fire of these magnitudes are devastating for everyone.

It's amusing to read so much misinformed partisan bigotry about the tragedy of wildfires in California.

For those who don't know the state at all, California has vast foothills that are covered with grasses that dry out in early summer, so it only takes a spark or lightning strike to unleash some pretty spectacular fires. It has always been this way there even if you go all the way back to when the only people living in the San Joaquin Valley were Tule indians.

See the mountain-sized foothills in the background of the photo in the link below? That's why this happens:

Yes lets help the San Andreas fault so California will seperate from the rest of the USA!

there is no such thing as global warming. i know, we will always have with us those empty headed libs who have to be told that after using the bathroom you must clean yourself. their lost without gore or some dem telling them to do this or that. that's why they believe were in the midst of this hoax called global warming. but what it's really about is control. it's already been mentioned in several speeches from gore that we, the citizens are going to have to make more sacrifices. i read an article from the new york times, u.k., that there is a possibility in five maybe ten yrs we will only be allowed to use our vehicles only three to four days a week. of course, emergency vehicles are excluded. i believe it will happen.

Have you ever been through a major fire you piece of sh!t hack?

I doubt it. The devastation is unimaginable.

And you are using this disaster as political fodder.

Unbelievable!

And for the rest of you idiots, California doesn't need or want you.

No wonder conservatives have a reputation as cold hearted bastards.

Let's let California be annexed by Venezuela or North Korea, it is already 3/4 of the way to communism and especially the San Francisco and Berkley area wants it.....

If it weren't for global climate change, Minnesota would still be covered by a massive glacier.

Polar Ice Caps melting: It couldn't be caused by under water Volcanoes, noooo it must be people driving their SUV's. (that is if I believe the StarTribune, Algore, MSNBC, Wall E, CNN, ABC, New York Times, CBS, et al...)

The West Coast has the best record of environmentalism in the nation. I say let's drop the Midwest. My carbon footprint doubled when I moved from NY to Michigan.

'R8...' is right !!

What a pathetic use of those poor sods in California for an even more pathetic question!!

yup

and global warming IS NOT happening!!!!
