Hey Look! A natural disaster! Let's blame the president!
"...the ability of the state's National Guard has been compromised because too much of their equipment and personnel is in Iraq." Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA)
"How about sending our National Guard back from Iraq, so that we have those people available here to help us?" - CA. Lt. Gov. John Garamendi
Your BS detector should be going crazy right now.
While roughly 2,000 National Guard troops from CA are currently serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, nearly 17,000 troops remain in the state to help with the fires if they are needed.
Just one more example of the Democrats attempting to politicize anything and everything. When will they have to deal with the blow back? Sadly in a state like CA, this type of repulsive and misleading rhetoric is generally rewarded by the voters and ignored by even those with integrity within the Democratic machine.

I have to agree with them to a certain point though: I think the U.S. should stop trying to fix the rest of the world and focus on the problems in our own country.
Oh we definitely need those extra 2000 National Guards to fight the fires - They can shoot the flames out.
anonymous- you really think all the National Guard can do is shoot guns?
