PBS has a series out on the Dust Bowl, where they try to blame the 1930s drought on Oklahoma farmers.
The map below shows the area of the drought in red and yellow, and the area of the Dust Bowl in blue.
As usual, PBS is hating Americans at taxpayer expense.
Obama cut off White House tours for schoolchildren, so that he could try to blame Republicans. Now he is taking a $100 million trip to Africa at taxpayer expense.
Obama’s trip could cost the federal government $60 million to $100 million

The last time a major (category 3-5) hurricane struck the US was October 19, 2005.
It has been 2804 days since Wilma hit, the longest such period since the Civil War.
In 1954, the US was hit by three major hurricanes in less than 10 weeks.
Obama wants to restore the climate to safe levels of CO2.
In 2008, Lewis Pugh tried to Kayak to the North Pole from Svalbard. He made it about 2% of the way to the pole, before he was forced to turn around by ice and cold.
The MSM dutifully reported his spectacular failure as a victory against global warming.
The ice on that side of the Arctic always extends about 1,000 km from the pole, even in winter.
Just as the rest of the world (including Huffington Post) figures out that global warming is a scam, Obama decides to use it as an excuse to further wreck the US economy.
Obama humiliates himself on the world stage, yet again.

One month ago today, Obama told us that he had won the war on terror – and it was over.
Last week Obama told us that spying on Americans had stopped dozens of terror attacks, and that they need to keep spying on Americans as part of the ongoing war on terror.
Rowers’ attempt through Arctic’s Northwest Passage to highlight climate change
four men are set to embark Canada Day on an 80-day rowboat journey through the most cantankerous climate zone on the planet in the spirit of adventure and in an effort to reveal the shocking effects of climate change on the Arctic.
Meet the crew: There’s Kevin Vallely, an architect whose adventure resume includes some of Canada’s most harrowing expeditions; Paul Gleeson, an Irish cyclist and rower; and award-winning Canadian environmental filmmaker Frank Wolf. The fourth is Denis Barnett, also Irish and a team rookie who Vallely says brings “the wide-eyed enthusiasm of a neophyte” to the expedition
The 3,000-kilometre journey in an eight-metre rowboat will begin in Inuvik and wind through Tuktoyaktuk in the Northwest Territories to Pond Inlet, Nunavut. Along the way, they’ll contend with deadly threats such as unexpected storms, wild animals and bitter cold.
Rowers’ attempt through Arctic’s Northwest Passage to highlight climate change
They are leaving one week from tomorrow, and the entire route is choked with ice.
