I was wondering if the drought was the President’s fault … I image Gov. Dayton’s as well … let’s not forget Franken and Klobuchar (not sure I spelled that correctly) … and I have read through the grapevine that Ms. Bachmann is doing a rain dance and is thus doing her part … notice some cynicism here … okay I’m guessing some do not!
Hot debate. What do you think?

No Jessie Mr Obama isn’t responsible for the drought. I wonder however, when will you admit that he accepts no blame for himself. It seems no matter that he PROMISED the American people he would have all the financial problems solved in 3 years, he didn’t get it done. Now he wants more time, says the problem was bigger than he thought. To me that means he didn’t understand what he faced, or he wasn’t competent to be President. In my opinion, either option means he needs to be replaced.

And before any of you complain or use the excuse he has to fight the Republican House of Representatives, let me remind you he had both a Democratic House and Senate for his first two years. Incidently, they were also there for the last 2 years of the Bush administration. Just think back to then, that’s about when things started to unravel.

You people need to stop with the politics this is mother nature and climate change that has been slowly taking shape to the point it is effecting weather in different regions of this country and others around the world. The big problem comes a chance of fires that can do enough damage to homes and other buildings if it spreads. Now usually we have some type of decent rain but there hasn’t been much since early August and the clouds of dust tell a troubling tale. The drought has spread this far north which effects more then just the ground. The trees, the lakes as well as our water tables beneath the ground.
