One of the fires got out of control because firefighters made a big mistake. The firefighters, whose regulations and judgement are known by all Bushists to be idiotic and inexplicable, just couldn't bring themselves to do what needed to be done.

The fires didn't spread and go wild because they had fuel. They went wild because somebody didn't fly a bucket of water ... at night ... into a densely wooded area. You've hit the nail on the head! Bravo!

And here I thought that we just had a whole bunch of wild fires last year and were supposed to be focusing hard on this issue. Now we find out that Davis did his part, and the Bushies sat on Davis' request. Could it be because the Bushies are pushing for deregulating old growth clear-cutting and want to ignore the undesirable (to lumber companies) dead wood and brush?

No. It's firefighters and their stupid regulations. Dumb firefighters. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

Stupid really.
