    I'm watching LA burn and got to thinking....
    I'm watching hundreds of homes and businesses burn down and what if al Qaeda recruited arsonists to set fires all across America?

    That would be far more devastating than flying planes into buildings.

    Whatever the cause Dags, I've never seen fires that are so out of control. The fact the firefighters are totally outmatched is scarier than the damage itself, they've basically admitted they can't predict the fires movement or when they might be able to get it under control.

    As for Al Quada, I'd say it's a reach, taking a kalashnikov to an NFL game would have more impact or anything similarily shocking. Lets hope Bin Laden is hiding out in Anaheim Hills.

        I've never seen a fire move as quick over such a large area in my life. I'm near Santa Clarita and the smoke is in the air here although not too bad, can smell it more than you can see it.

              Mike...You're a good guy but that's innacurate, a Presidents first responsibility is his peoples safety regardless of his politics, if he knew Al Quaida were active in California he'd round them up and torture them by giving them Clippers season tickets.

                What can he do? Arrest every Arab in the United States owning a cigarette lighter and can afford to buy one gallon of gas?

                      That's exactly my take, this is a pantomime acted out at the same time every year and every year Arnie promises it won't happen again and three months later cuts the firefighters budget. You couldn't make this stuff up.

                        idiots should set fires more periodically instead of dealing with these out of conrol fires EVERY YEAR

                          I don't think anyone cares about California burning other than Californians. Thought the neighboring states should put out a smug alert.

                                My neighbor thinks the fires are being started by angry gays after the passing of Prop. 8.

                                  Now there is an idea... I like it and I will present it to "cousin binny"... I am not into guns
                                  so "Osss" might have to get someone else to do this one unless he gets me 72 Virgins and I am not waiting to die to get them I want them up front!!! I hear you don't get to take your cock with you when you go so what good would it do to wait...
