Carly Fiorina blames liberal environmentalists for Calif. water crisis

Former Hewlett-Packard CEO and potential Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina is blaming California’s water crisis on “liberal environmentalists” who are “willing to sacrifice other people’s lives and livelihoods at the altar of their ideology.”“With different policies over the last 20 years, all of this could be avoided,” Ms. Fiorina said in an interview Monday on Glenn Beck’s radio show, The Blaze reported.
“Despite the fact that California has suffered from droughts for millennia, liberal environmentalists have prevented the building of a single new reservoir or a single new water conveyance system over decades during a period in which California’s population has doubled.”Ms. Fiorina said that as a result, 70 percent of California’s rainfall “washes out to sea” every year, The Blaze reported.
“California is a classic case of liberals being willing to sacrifice other people’s lives and livelihoods at the altar of their ideology. It is a tragedy,” Ms. Fiorina said.“Government has grown so huge, so powerful, so costly, so complex, it is literally crushing the life out of this country,” she argued. “It is crushing small and family-owned businesses, which are the economic engine of our nation. It is crushing possibilities out of people’s lives by entangling them in a web of dependence from which they cannot escape. The weight, the cost and the power of government are literally crushing the potential of the nation.“We must, absolutely must, get government under control, which means reducing its size and its power and its complexity in really fundamental ways,” Ms. Fiorina said, The Blazereported. “And that is why I am seriously considering running for president, and will make a final decision over the next month or so. I have come to the point of view that too many politicians have been captured in this system for too long, and they no longer see what needs to be done.

Actually has run for both Governor and Senator. This might be a name recognition move for another Senate run since Boxer is retiring and Feinstein won't be far behind.

She would dance circles around either.

Two time loser, a natural for the GOP.

She makes more money failing in the private sector.

In your mind.

Fiorina is probably fourth or fifth in the list of potential candidates...

...but still better than anyone on the Donk side.

In other words, Government has grown so large and costly, that we need the government to build a lot of reservoirs and water diversion projects so that we can take water from the people in the mountains, and the fisherman in the rivers and seas, and give it to people elsewhere. The people I want government to be big enough to help are the people I deem to be the most important...at the expense of the other people who aren't nearly as important.

The shit is running down hill! If you don't stop it, it continues on into the ocean! How wasteful of nature.

Global warming doesn't have any human inputs but liberals are causing the water shortage in CA.

If there weren't any laws prohibiting building dams, the dam would have been built, and a water reserve would be in place.
