HAPPY EARTH DAY!

This is the day the republicans hate. They mock Earth Day just as they mock women, the poor, the elderly, the sick, blacks, hispanics, teachers, veterans and Mother Earth. Republicans hate trees almost as much as they hate tax day.

HAPPY EARTH DAY!

Where's the fight to put a price on carbon? Where's the protection for the Gulf after the worst environmental disaster in our history? Where's the clear bold Dem message that would combat the anti-science, corporate-whoring message of the right??

I could go on and on but the answer is simple: Dem "leaders" have adopted a kindler, gentler version of Republican corporate-whoring rather than standing up for the earth and the children who will inherit this mess.

"Vote for us - we're nowhere near as bad as the Republicans."

Woo-hoo!
