Dems Beating the Drum on Climate Change
2013-05-09
Most Obamanauts prolly don't know what a tin-foil hat is for. An e-mail from OFA - Organizing For Action, an Obama re-election group it seems. I forget how I got on their list, but this is really comical!
Break out the tin foil hats, folks.

House Speaker John Boehner and the chairman of the House Science Committee are both unsure whether the science behind climate change -- the stuff that shows pretty clearly that carbon pollution produced by humans is damaging our environment -- is real.

Instead, they're on the record saying things like this:

"The idea that carbon dioxide is a carcinogen that is harmful to our environment is almost comical. Every time we exhale, we exhale carbon dioxide. Every cow in the world, you know, when they do what they do, you've got more carbon dioxide." - John Boehner, April 2009

As long as our members of Congress continue to develop their own theories behind climate change, we will fall further and further behind in our ability to make actual progress on this issue.

Make them do better. Add your name to join OFA's team that will hold climate deniers in Congress accountable:
Link snipped. We don't need to contribute to their insanity...
We owe it to our environment and our economy to start having real talk on climate change.

Join us -- and we'll be in touch with next steps soon.

#5  It's just as likely that it's keeping us from sinking into another (long-overdue) ice age, Glenmore.

Fire up the barbecue! ;-p

#3  I believe our combustion of fossil fuels is causing climate change. SOME climate change. I don't have a clue if such change is of net harm or benefit. I am quite sure we cannot actually DO anything to stop it - every organic molecule we choose not to oxidize will be oxidized by someone else soon enough, all to our own economic loss. Accept what we cannot change, and know the difference.

#1  Yep, sign op/ like / send us $ 3 for a chance to breath the same air as Michelle and I.... All for future use as a data point in the OFA predictive analytics machine.
And if you think that you, as a typical Rantburgerr, who has never "liked" a progressive website in your life don't have a voter preference profile in the OFA data mine.... I have a tin foil hat for you!
