Mule, you are talking BS. Nothing more, nothing less. You keep saying things that aren't true. Please put some facts behind your ridiculous claims or stop.

Agricuture in California relies on water from another state? Nope, another one of your lies. While i will state that the imperial valley used water from the colorado river, that river is on the border of california where the water is drawn so it is as much in California as any other state.
BUT here's the catch: the imperial valley is not much when compared to the real agriculture center, the central valley. take a good look at a topigraphical map of California, see that big long green strip down the middle from san Francisco to the grapevine? all agriculture and all watered from the sierras (in California). Stop making things up.

You keep saying that oil and grain pass right by you, cool. Let it keep passing you by. Who cares? Will it keep passing by if NO is no longer there? yes, it will. Suggesting that the mighty mississippi will stop flowing and the shipping will stop without NO is more ridiculousness. No one here believes that, even you. Plow new orleans under and the oil will still flow. The grain will still ship. The seafood will still get to where it's going.

Ever heard of the alaskan pipline?
Do you really think that the west coast refineries rely on oil from the gulf to run? No, they don't. West coast refineries rarely run any gulf coast oil if any.

You are talking BS and making stuff up. Stop it.
Either way I'm done talking to you about this. As I stated before my name is not holmes and your racist comments and your made up BS are wearing a little thin.
Sorry if I'm steppin' on your toes there sammy, but what goes around comes around.
First, if you think 91 billion made it down here you're tripping.
Second, Katrina only has one n.
Third, If you think the govt has been supporting people down here since the storm you need to smoke less of CA's #1 agricultural product.
Fourth, the folks in Northern CA don't even like S CA.
Fifth, I think ya'll missed an opportunity by not electing Mary Carey Governor.



Now I'm gonna test that education again OK. So if CA doesn't need water then:
1.why is the Colorado river going dry?
2. Why did ya'll (southern colloquialism translating to "you guys") take all the federal money to get water from the Colorado River?

Now comes the informational segment. This may come as a shock but ocean going vessels don't do well in a river. Consequently, they must be loaded and off loaded. The place where this activity takes place is called a port. Get out YOUR map and you will find that ports are located on coasts. Coasts are vulnerable to storms from the sea. Stop me if I'm going too fast. The ports in Mexifornia are also vulnerable to earthquake, tsunami & landslides. So if we're gonna do any plowing under I say we start there.

You may think that if the oil stops flowing CA will continue unimpeded but I think that's your education failing you again.

Is this guy your neighbor?
