Posted by: Maven on March 13, 2010 at 8:02 am

From the blog of Congressman Devin Nunes:

“The Natural Resources Defense Council, Defenders of Wildlife, Sierra Club and others tell us that the reason the San Joaquin Valley needs to be transformed into a desert is because the Delta pumps are destroying the salmon population and the water is desperately needed to save the Delta ecosystem.

To this end, environmental radicals, operating in the name of Gaia, Mother Earth, the wiccan religion and a host of other cult-like organizations, have litigated, legislated and extorted away the water needed for San Joaquin Valley communities.

    Well, Nunes gives no space to comment on his blog, so I guess that I’ll have to comment here. I would have expected his level of comments from Glenn Beck or Ann Coulter, but I guess that this is what his employers at Westlands want done; portraying those who understand the science of ecology as radical loonies while the free market big ag corporations continue to raise profits based on subsidized water. It seems to me that the radical, un-American anti-free market are those who continue to ask everyone else to take the risk so that they can make a larger profit. They cry about farm jobs as they mechanize production. They cry about the lack of water when they don’t know what to do with all the water they get.
