[...] Michelle Malkin was quick to blame environmentalists for the fires (this was before she picked up the arson angle). “Lawsuits have tied up the president’s Healthy Forests Initiative passed in 2003,” she said. I don’t know about the lawsuits, but it’s pretty much universally understood that the HFI intitiave, if fully implemented, wouldn’t have done a dadblamed thing to stop wildfires. Glenn Hurowitz writes that, among other things, the HFI “subsidizes the logging of fire-resistant old growth trees.” [...]

Boxer was in San diego today and the more she spoke the more I fumed and wanted to throttle her. CalFire tried pulling the same cr@p again that they pulled in 2003.

Those worthless imbeciles hate the military and would rather see all of California burn to the ground rather than allow the military to help put out fires.

Thank God that Micheal Turko was on the set (KUSI7/39) when Duncan Hunter was there. Turko was his usual pitbull self and demanded to know why CalFire wouldn’t allow the Marine Corp or Navy firefighting helicopter fly.

Duncan Hunter got pissed off when he heard that CalFires was pulling this cr@p again and promptly made some phone calls. I swear to god he must have promised to personally kick the a$$ of the head of CalFires if this was not corrected right then and there. This was Tuesday night, by Monday morning the situation had changed.

There are still a few issues to be worked out, but hopefully they will actually get fixed this time, unlike the 2003 Cedars fire after which CalFires swore to god that what happened in 2003 would never happen again.

My personal prayer is that the upper management of CalFires get their stinking military hating heads chopped off and stuck on polls where everyone can spit on them.

OK so I really mean that in a metaphorical manner. But believe me I really am angry at those stuck up stuffed shirt worthless military hating liberal sack of $hit$…

I just heard seconds ago on FOX NEWS Hannity and Combs, from the National Guard in California that as soon Gov. Arnold gave the order for national guard to help out with the fires, he had something like 2500 there, and he said with another 15,000 if needed. Sean Hannity asked if Boxers statement about not having National Guard because of the war was true, and he flat out said no. That even if we did need more, we could get them from other states.

[...] Michelle Malkin points us to an article printed several years ago reminding us that environmentalist will not allow the government to thin forests in an effort to reduce the potential of, or at least the damage caused by a forest fire. The GAO examined 762 U.S. Forest Service (USFS) proposals to thin forests and prevent fires during the past two years. According to the study, slightly more than half the proposals were not subject to third-party appeal. Of those proposals subject to appeal, third parties challenged 59 percent. [...]
