Some of it drains into river systems. Some of the water evaporates from the soil it is applied to. A lot of it evaporates through transpiration. With evaporation it leaves behind minerals in the topsoil, increasing the salinity of the soil, decreasing it's productivity.

come on FOX never lies:
Yesterday, USA Today and Gallup released a new poll that found that a whopping 61 percent of Americans oppose efforts like those of Gov. Scott Walker (R-WI) to strip public sector unions of collective bargaining rights. The poll also found that only a third of Americans support such a policy, indicating that Walker is pandering to the far-right of the American electorate and is hardly representative of mainstream political thought in this country.
This morning, during a debate about the situation in Wisconsin and collective bargaining rights in general, the Fox News show Fox & Friends referenced the USA Today/Gallup poll. With incredible brazenness, the Fox hosts actually reversed the results of the poll in order to claim that two-thirds of Americans supported Wisconsin-style laws rather than opposed them.

Now, court documents filed in a lawsuit make clear whom Ms. Regan was accusing of urging her to lie: Roger E. Ailes, the powerful chairman of Fox News and a longtime friend of Mr. Giuliani. What is more, the documents say that Ms. Regan taped the telephone call from Mr. Ailes in which Mr. Ailes discussed her relationship with Mr. Kerik.

Yes we know, they made a mistake. Now let me ask you this, "does the NY Times lie?"
http://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2011/02/028470.php
Eric Lipton told a falsehood to demonize conservatives. I'm not expecting a retraction. Then there is Dan Rather..................... Oh, I almost forgot about the two page spread just before the election about McCain's affair.
Fox made a transcription mistake. It isn't the kind of thing you can even get away with. Seriously, it is too easy to check. These others? Not so much. You can hyperventilate all you want but it just exposes your own bias.

You still can't explain why fox news isn't covering the ogalla issue. It is clearly incredibly important. Were talking about food and huge potential increases in food prices(dare I say availability)
There is no excuse.
This is but one issue that might affect us in the near future which fox news hasn't even touched upon.
Thats fucking corrupted.
There are dozens dozens more that you can't even fathom yet because you haven't been properly educated on the subject or tried to actually learn about environmentalism.

Tell us more about the Delta smelt and the San Joaquin Valley. Until I hear what you have to say about that I will assume that I know a fuck of a lot more about it than you do.

HAHA Fox news made a mistake.
Looks like a deliberate mistake. God damn your head is hard.
I think we should boycott that place. Seriously. If they're really fucking around like that and they call themselves a news station. Do you know how many old people watch this bullshit and get their opinions from it?

Why would anybody make such an easily exposable error on purpose? They are fully aware that there is an army of retarded Soros apes monitoring their every word. Deliberately making that mistake would be far more idiotic than the mistake itself. Stop projecting.Quote:

Don't know, don't care. Boycott it all you want. I do.
Say, you know who calls themselves a newspaper? The Village Voice, that's who.
Quote:
Here is the pertinent part of Erdoso's column today:
"Last weekend rallies were held in all 50 states in support of the teachers' union in Wisconsin. And at the Wisconsin state capitol, at least 70,000 people came out on Saturday to protest Governor Walker's attempt to break the union.
Sounds like a big deal, right? Hundreds of thousands of people turned out on behalf of teachers in one state who were holding out for collective bargaining rights, despite opposition from Republicans and from bigtime "liberal" columnists who also consider schoolteachers grossly overcompensated....
You wouldn't know it, though, from the report of Professor William Jacobson at Legal Insurrection, who flatly declared, "50-State Union Protest Falls Far Short Of Predicted Turnout."
Edroso went on to list some rallies I failed to include, none of which were sizable other than one supposedly large rally in San Francisco:
"Also consider the other rallies Jacobson excluded: San Francisco, for example, reported 50,000 attendees."
There's a problem here for Edroso.
The link which supposedly confirmed there were 50,000 people in San Francisco actually stated that there were only 2000 people at the San Francisco rally and that there were 50,000 people nationwide (outside Madison). This confirms my estimation that MoveOn.org and the unions failed to bring out significant numbers except in Madison.
In fact, this estimation was half my estimation, so surely that was some right-winger trying to smear the labor movement, right?
Wrong. The source for the 50,000 nationwide number was a MoveOn.org spokesman interviewed by the liberal AlterNet website:

you're quoting a blog run by a law professor at a public school (PARASITE) who has no sources to dispute the crowd estimates except his own reading of other blogs.
you're just mad because the protest in WI alone was bigger than anything the KOCH baggers were able to do last year....
