Lynn Woolsey on a Spending Spree?
April 24, 2010
Is this woman trying to buy votes or what? After the story abour earmarks, I see this KTVU post about another $1 billion she is spending to “restore” the SF Bay. Where is the money coming from? Is she so confident they will get the VAT tax that they will have the money to pay for all this pork? Remember, this is not because of the commerce clause in the constitution they are doing this, but because of the EPA, another huge bureaucracy funded by us. We are not against cleaning up the bay, but use California’s money to do it… What? They are broke too? Those crazy Democrats! – Editor
======================
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. — Rep. Jackie Speier, D-Hillsborough, was in South San Francisco
Friday to announce the introduction of a bill to the U.S. Congress that would spend $1 billion to restore and clean up the San Francisco Bay.
The bill, the San Francisco Bay Improvement Act of 2010, would give the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency about $100 million annually over a 10-year period to fund projects that would restore the health of the Bay, which has been harmed by pollution, invasive species, and the loss of wetland habitat.
Speier said Congress has spent money on problems with other estuaries, including the Chesapeake Bay and the Great Lakes and hoped her fellow members of Congress would approve a bill for the Bay Area.
“I never predict whether a bill’s gonna pass, but I don’t introduce a bill without putting every effort to make sure it will end up on the President’s desk,” she said.
The bill was co-sponsored by the Bay Area’s congressional delegation: Anna Eshoo, John Garamendi, Mike Honda, Barbara Lee, Zoe Lofgren, Jerry McNerney, George Miller, Pete Stark, Mike Thompson, and Lynn Woolsey.

Got something to say?
these earmarks are nothing short of criminally insane. i am in woolsey’s district and i look forward to her being replaced. tomorrow is not soon enough. we are going down and these people are playing the ‘business-as-usual game as if they have all completely lost their minds. and are being paid off.
$100 million annually to the epa, easily one of the top ten corrupt organizations. will we ever have zero tolerance for criminals? for the support of criminal activity, organizations? it’s a wonderment.
the bay cleanup bill, on a personal level, is the most egregious. and i have no intention of using euphemisms here. the bay is polluted. so millions of dollars should be spent to unpollute it. okay -
please pay attention here. weather modification and experimentation with toxins through chemtrails has been especially heavy in the bay area for a long time. most heavily in the past three years. the particulate matter that is being sprayed daily from unmarked military planes and some commercial planes has been analyzed by professionals numerous times and shows the same toxic chemicals time after time. california is losing trees and birds, people and animals are being made and kept ill through upper respiratory problems, skin cancer, eye infections, arrythmia, colds and flu that never quite go away, depression, suppressed immune systems and on and on. please check out rosalind peterson’s website on this if you are not familiar with the spraying. ms. peterson was invited to address the united nations on the effects of persistent contrails on agriculture and other life. her address can be found online.
the light apple brown moth spraying that has been shown to be so toxic that it has been lethal to pets and wild animals, solves no problems. only creates them. there is no problem in the first place with the moth. but someone – someone is making a great deal of money in these crimes against the environment, and human and animal life. which members of congress have alerted the residents to these dangers or stood up and said enough! wouldn’t you think…..?
the chemtrail program alone is incomprehensibly expensive. it is pollution that injures and kills. i hope the irony is not lost on anyone – but the solution is to keep funding the lbam spray and chemtrail program, which is vehemently denied by lynn woolsey for one, the govt in general, the faa and the epa, AND give the corrupt epa $100 million each year to clean up the water while the planes are spraying overhead.
so…not only will millions (or billions) be spent on projects like the bay clean up and a bike trail in bodega bay, but the cause of the pollution and ill health will not only not be addressed or even admitted, but the residents of the bay area will continue to fund their own demise.
no need to go into hunger and homelessness.
the first step toward normalizing the unthinkable is to treat as reasonable the unreasonable, the unconscionable. poison, rape, ethnic cleansing, torture, genocide, all unquestionably wrong. the arena of debate, that political correctness demands, over whether or not people should be poisoned is a self-defeating trap.
in the last few years we have heard debate over issues that should not be debatable. we are fast becoming inured to atrocities and lies and invalidating the power of self-evident truth. walk away.
