Feds Started the California Fires
Yeah, you will never read that in the paper.
"Calif. officials hunt for clues to cause of giant wildfire; Firefighters make progress trying to contain blaze" by Jacob Adelman, Associated Press | September 3, 2009
LOS ANGELES - .... Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger visited the fire area yesterday and served breakfast to firefighters, scooping Cream of Wheat into paper bowls and giving them plenty of protein so “they get all pumped up for the next fight out there with those fires.’’
Nice photo op. Pffft.
Please keep that in mind.
The fire has taken a toll on firefighters, who bunk down each night in tents at the huge fire command center....

"Schwarzenegger tours fire devastation; Vows to help victims; blazes losing strength" by Greg Risling and Raquel Maria Dillon, Associated Press | September 4, 2009
LOS ANGELES - Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger toured a ravaged community yesterday after a wildfire destroyed dozens of homes.... [and] talked to residents about their losses.
Schwarzenegger got an earful from some residents as he toured the community of Vogel Flats in Big Tujunga Canyon, where most of the 40 homes were leveled.
Bert Voorhees, 53, who lost his 800-square-foot home, wondered why firefighters didn’t have aircraft or strike crews available before the fire raced into the canyon during the weekend and wiped out the community.
“I just know a terrible mistake was made in this canyon,’’ said Voorhees, a civil rights lawyer. “It’s much bigger than this canyon. The fact that it cost two guys their lives, it’s like bigger than any of this.’’
Voorhees suggested that fire officials bowed to political pressure and opted to protect richer neighborhoods to show off an aerial assault instead of snuffing out the fire when it was in its infancy.

So WHO are YOU GOING TO BELIEVE, readers?ME -- who TELLS you the TRUTH through my analysis -- or LYING "officials" and NEWSPAPERS that TRANSMIT their lies?
Here ya' go:
Fire officials denied they were influenced by legislators on where to put firefighters and equipment. Firefighters began to bring the blaze under greater control.
Schwarzenegger.... later thanked firefighters for their work. At one point during the tour, the former bodybuilder picked up a 30-pound barbell amid the wreckage.
“Even though we are still battling those fires, we are now trying to help get people’s lives rebuilt,’’ Schwarzenegger said. “When you see this kind of devastation, it’s horrible to lose your home, your personal belongings.’’
Of course, it is not your mansion or home burning, governator!
I'll bet Californians are glad to be getting rid of this usurping prick!
Btw, he LEFT YOU WORSE OFF than when he came in, Californian!
Despite their overall progress, firefighters dealt with a flare-up overnight in a remote canyon as strong down-slope winds “just kind of blew the fire up,’’ said US Forest Service official John Huschke. Full containment was expected Sept. 15, meaning fire officials expect that they will have the blaze completely surrounded by then.
Why should we believe them? Why?
They say progress and its flaring up!
Firefighters have been conducting an aerial assault on the fire to complement ground efforts. Helicopters have doused the fire with 1.7 million gallons of water and airplanes have dropped 670,000 gallons of retardant on the fire.
Wow, what an IMPRESSIVE SHOW!!!!
“We’re changing the pace and treating this as a marathon,’’ US Forest Service incident commander Mike Dietrich said. “If it were a 26-mile race, we’d only be at mile 6.’’
And you will be done in TWO WEEKS! That SURE IS RUNNING FAST!!
Of course, you WOULD if your ASS is ON FIRE!
In this case, it is the BULLS*** LYING not the actual fire.
