Default Missing the point? I think not. Kentucky "disaster" man-made

OK so you refuse to look at the cost/benefit analysis of overhead lines

underground is a wiser decision. I just wanted to understand your point.

Apparently you want to do the same thing for the amount of tree trimming
that "should" be done.

You should be on the obomination team dictating how we all should be
living our lives as I'm sure you could do a better job than any of us
are doing.

I don't know about you but I'm wondering when my Federal and state of
Cale-forn-na tax refund checks will show up.


Cost/benefit analysis is no way to deal with people's essential
services. That is a slippery slope that invariably ends with people dying.

I am neutral on Mr. Obama, but I have seen nothing indicating that he
plans to tell anyone how to live. It is quite a stretch to equate me
stating that disasters are made worse by inaction, to a desire to
micromanage strangers' lives.

People who overpay their taxes all year and then get refunds are morons.
I will cut the state a check, like I do every year. Do you enjoy
loaning money (interest free) to your hero Arnold?
