2. Read by 60+ people, commented on by 1. No recommends.
This is why we're in trouble.

People are afraid of what's happening, and so they run from it and ignore it.

Democrats should make global warming their #1 issue, and stive to be the party that works to save our fucking ass, because it's in the fire right now and too many people either don't realize that or choose to ignore it.

3. MORE IMPORTANT THAT WE THREATEN AL GORE OVER A POTUS RUN
than act upon the climate crisis.

All the "RUN AL, RUN!" people who talk about how Po'd and dissapointed they'll be if he doesn't run , or how it means he doesn't take the issue seriously.......you sicken me.

You make me sick because you care about nothing but your own little political ambition.

You don't really understand the issue of global warming and what Mr. Gore has done thus far.
