Is Meg Whitman in cahoots with Barack Obama?
Whitman gave $300,000 to the Environmental Defense Fund to protect the delta smelt and close off water to the farms of the Central Valley.
Now we have Obama closing Federal water in the Central Valley to protect the delta smelt.
"The federal government has proposed a new set of water-pumping restrictions in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, just four days after west-side farmers hailed a court ruling that temporarily halted a similar cutback.
The latest restrictions are being triggered by the delta smelt, a fish listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. The smelt are now being found near the massive delta pumps, which send water to west-side agriculture, including the Westlands Water District, and to millions of urban users from the East Bay to Southern California."
Whitman and Obama have the same goals--one uses money and the other the power of Washington to kill thousands of farms and tens of thousands of jobs.
They must be proud today.
Now you know why I am professionally helping Steve Poizner for Governor.
