Let's return for a moment to last spring, when doom and gloom descended on the San Joaquin Valley in the form of water-allotment reductions that, we were told, would bankrupt the farmers, idle the workers and turn the region into a modern dust bowl.
Perhaps you remember when TV commentator Sean Hannity, with ample PR help from the huge Westlands Water District, went on the air with a series of heart-tugging stories about how farms and jobs were being lost because wrongheaded environmentalists and federal officials were diverting "valley" water to protect insignificant smelt and salmon.

Lies and Spin...
I became physically ill when all that was going on last year, just from the amount of lies perpetrated and the spin/politics going on..Those Ag 'concerns' on the "West-died" are the biggest bunch of scamming "Welfare Queens" in the West and their main business is NOT producing food, but LIES, OBFUSCATION, and spreading their own form of pollution throughout the area and through the food-chain system. All along with their hands held out for more scarce resources....and crying about it on NATIONAL TELEVISION & 'everybody' goes along with their 'game-plan'!!!!
