With only one day over 90F (July 3) gardeners and agriculturalist have
been dismayed. Now on the 19th (92F), 20th (91F), and 21st (91F) we've
added 3 more days of heat which now has tomatoes ripening for gardeners,
and has set off a tsunami of grapes for local wineries who are now
running 10 - 12 hr./days for employees.

Kucinich noted that none of the government programs targeted for

"appeared on the GAO's list of government programs at high risk of
waste, fraud and abuse."

[W]e have the situation with the deficit and the debt and spending and jobs. And itıs not that difficult to get out of it. The first thing you do is you get rid of corporate welfare. Thatıs hundreds of billions of dollars a year. The second is you tax corporations so that they donıt get away with no taxation.
