Just when you thought things couldn’t get any weirder…

Weird is not what I call it ....

The Obama Administration now wants to demolish three dams in northern California to supposedly save the salmon… But the whole reason to support the move was based on shoddy and inconclusive scientific data.



Greenheads say the dams threaten salmon. They want the dams gone and Obama agrees.

Now a scientist is challenging the junk science behind the decision.
The City Square reported:

    Against intense local opposition, the Obama administration wants to demolish three dams on the Klamath River in Siskiyou County, California. Low-cost clean hydroelectricity as well as water for irrigation would be lost if the dams were removed. Removal of the dams would also cause chaos for ranchers, homeowners, and small business who live and work in the downstream of the dams. Despite this, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar has been trying to force dam removal for the supposed benefit of some salmon and steelhead spawning habitat.

    Now, Prof. Paul R. Houser of George Mason University alleges that the administration’s plan is all based on junk science. In his role as science advisor to the Bureau of Reclamation, he was closely involved in the project. He has filed a formal complaint (PDF) alleging “intentional falsification” and “intentional . . . compromise of scientific and scholarly integrity.”

More junk science, who would have thought?!  /

My God, these people want a war, what other conculsion is there...no matter how much the sqweaky minority eco-whackjob's whine, no matter how much industry bends over backwards building alternate salmon routes...nothing ever satisfies these Nazi pricks!  They want to kill all industry and kill people.  They hate people!

These "ranchers, homeowners, and small business" people should be taking up arms and saying enough is enough!

There really is no end to it, is there?  They're not satisfied with higher gas prices, no homes sales, etc etc etc --they just keep going.  It's because through out this country BO's election embolded all these libs to push their own world view onto the rest of us.

Hopefully, November will be the beginning of bringing an end to it because right now, no, there's no end.

Every damn day.

Read, a while back, that this will cause the river bottom lands to flood (flood land)
which will then be called "wetlands" and by law preserved and protected from human
disruption.

More of the same ideology that the Corps of Engineers followed when they allowed the Mississippi to overflow, flooding out all of those farmers last fall.
