Sarah Palin to California: Turn on the Water!

This was a popular message in Central California which has been turned into a man-made dustbowl because of a 2" bait fish:
Sarah Palin came out to an adoring crowd and she adored them right back.

"I hope you don't take it for granted what you have here in California. It seems like really beautiful pieces of a puzzle come together here in California where you have the man power the work ethic that's here. You have the technology and you have the God-given natural resources here. So the only thing standing in the way is a government that doesn't understand that they need to back off and allow you to do what you do best," Sarah Palin said.

And for Central Valley farmers like Ron Pereira from Los Banos, Palin spoke words he understood.

"She's right on. Our water issue here in California, especially with a wet year like this year, and we have only 80 percent. I mean it's ridiculous. Why don't we have 100 percent?" he said.

Palin hit the water issue hard calling the Central Valley's water issue a government-imposed drought that needs to be reversed.

"This is the epitome of the place for potential and this is the epitome of the place for government to have realized, ‘We screwed up. We're taking away people's livelihoods by shutting off their water. Lets undo some of the mistakes that we have done in this community and let's allow these people to have their jobs, their livelihoods, to have what it is that their work ethic from prior generations,'" said Palin.
It's not just California that's causing the problem. Federal environmental protection rules and endangered species laws are greatly contributing to the problem, and with a California state government that's not willing to fight for its citizens, you end up with the disaster that's currently underway.

Even though California is a blue state, it's not blue because of the people she spoke to in Central California. The farming communities are much more conservative, but the state ends up in the liberal column mainly because the two largest population centers, Los Angeles County and the Bay Area, trend so far left.

Palin speaks the language of Red State America and that's what ticks the left off so much.
