Calif. Fires Burned, Copters Grounded

[nhboy]

"LOS ANGELES - As wildfires were charging across Southern California, nearly two dozen water-dropping helicopters and two massive cargo planes sat idly by, grounded by government rules and bureaucracy.

How much the aircraft would have helped will never be known, but their inability to provide quick assistance raises troubling questions about California's preparations for a fire season that was widely expected to be among the worst on record."

Don't we have four other threads about the fire?

The Governator already explained it, they could'nt run those helicopters because it was too dangerous in 100 mph winds.

I mean, why the eff are these reporters only reporting half the story to make the government look bad.

Doesn't matter - it's George Bush's fault.

Global warming and all that. Everyone knows global warming would be fixed in a minute if George Bush wasn't fighting it.

Only the head line makes the governemt look bad.

Then you get 3/4 of the way through the garbage and read that the governator biatch slaps eveyone and tells the truth.


Oh way to go nhboy for once again staying on top of things and reporting/posting useless old news.
