Palin decries water restrictions at Calif. college

"A faceless government is taking away their lifeline, water, all because of a 3-inch fish," Palin said. "Where I come from, a 3-inch fish, we call that bait. There is no need to destroy people's lives over bait." Read on

I am not sure what is scarier - the picture above or the fact that people are paying this woman 75k to talk for 40 minutes? Are you kidding me?

Nice, gettin all political on this site. Sarah Palin is a moron and you people that write about her latest gaffe are morons too.

Agreed Palin is a moron. However, educating folks that the verbal sewage she spews is in fact shit and not gold is important.

Its a shame that she feels the need to decide that the delta smelt is not worth saving. not a political statement - simply an observation. bait? thats not bait ... this is bait ...

Doesn't her family fish for salmon. How would she feel if the salmon were no longer there to help her make money. She is a Hypocrit. Cailfornia Could of made some man made lakes. This would help fight there water shortage.

I see most of these mindless backed comments have no clue about the bait being referred to. This tiny fish is adversely affecting the largest agricutural producing area in the world. Along the lines of the spotted white owl 'scare' is what this bait is being used as. More illiberal dribble by radical leftists trying to take over more control. Fact, bank on it.

Yo, Trout Sniper. If the subject concerns fish and fisheries, don't you think this is the perfect forum to discus politics? This woman claims to be a lover of the outdoors and nature, but still publicly spews this mindless verbal diarrhea in order to gain supporters for her political agenda. The chum gang is educating you on a subject that should be important to you.

Yep bait is bait...and the delta smelt is a key indicator species for bait in that ecosystem...and it doesnt take a scientist to figure out no bait, no predatory fish...Over all the delta is fall off the table and its not hard to see its due to water exports...one more reason I dont fish or spend money in CA

This cannot be a political posting- there's a picture of a fuckwit attached- oh, sorry.

Intellibronc, thanks for the reminder why it's necessary to rebut the idiotic ramblings of the ignorant and your claim that California is the largest agricultural producing area in the world is just plain wrong or was it intended not to be taken as a factual statement?

Oldschool, you made my point loud and clear by your post. You are a troll! Besides who cares I dont go smelt fishing that often.
