That could have been a mistake. It could have been an applause line for a young crowd.

It could though, be a hint that we might really start talking about it. It kills more votes than it gets nationally right now, so they couldn't campaign on it.

Oil / shale / tar sands needs to stop. Now. Tariff the hell out of any country we can't compete on cost with due to their lack of regs and cleanliness.

My district is sending a shithead to congress. So I have to live vicariously through other people, who have representation that cares about things like this.
