As per “dutchsinse” the earthquake predicting channel on youtube, if you check the googleearth height above sea level, the dam top is at 900 ft, and the stream at the bottom is at 200 feet, for a drop of 700 feet. The river then further drops to either 28 or 20 feet above sea level at Sacramento. (I can’t remember, but you can check googleearth.)

Yes, SacBee (S for you know what), the fact is that (I remember seeing/reading them) until a very few days ago the nation was getting the equivalent of “move along, nothing to see here” from California officials and other state venues (maybe like you?).

The time to prevent the disaster was months/years ago when funds were allocated and work left undone because money was needed elsewhere for other things like illegals and high speed trains. Yet now with imminent disaster approaching, you and all your other bureaucrats throw up you hands and cast this black heart political stone. Fie on you. Fie on you.

Were it not that the people in that area are not the crazy liberal loons like those much farther south and westward to the see and it was these areas the ones in the pickle, I’d say they all can be evacuated using that high speed rail to nowhere. Sod all on you SACBEE.

All,

Read the first few paragraphs again, and tell me if you thin Erika Smith's screed sounds like a letter or email from a psycho ex-lover that you once broke up with.

We all know what you mean.

Again the left shoots too soon and into the crowd. This is now Trumps Katrina? The dam did not yet fail and it’s Trumps fault?
Pelosi was saying Flynn was an impeachable offense, lies... there is no balance. They are unhinged.

If I have a leaky toilet in my house and fail to fix it, whose fault is it after it floods my house? I needed that money to buy a new TV which I thought was more important and now I want taxpayer money to help me out.

That is how liberals think! If Trump gives them any money I’m going to be pissed. Let Hollywood stooges fork over the money, or give them the money on a loan basis. I have no sympathy for people that don’t know how to live within their budget.

Like truth and facts ever intrude on a proggie writer’s mission to demonize the right. Today’s poster child for proggie idiocy.

I lived in CA the first time this idiot was Guv.

He’s among the population control crowd who want to see CA’s ag industry diminished, lest they be able to help feed the country and the world.

That’s why they don’t give a damn about dams.
