“FDR once said, ``Do what you can with what you got where you are.'' We have west coast salmon fishermen that can't fish because of the government's stupidity. The administration released water in the Upper Klamath Basin to water intensive crops that killed the downstream fish, the breeding stock of wild salmon. The result is that fishermen can't fish. The governments of the States have asked the administration to call for an emergency declaration to aid these fishermen. They have refused. Today, the House of Representatives will hear about the plight of the fishermen and the failure of the GOP leadership to help them. We will do what we can with what we got where we are. ____________________”
