The DNC Agenda omits the environment as an important issue; speak out!
Please tell the Democratic National Commitee to Add the Environment to the Party's Official Issues Agenda!

The DNC does not currently include the environment among the Party's official agenda issues listed on their web site, http://democrats.org/agenda.html. As a Democrat and an environmentalist, I feel this is a huge mistake that needs to be corrected immediately. It sends the wrong message at a time when environmental concerns are greater than ever.

If you too feel that this is a mistake, please take moment to sign this petition to the DNC Chairman, Howard Dean. Lets get the goal of a healthy environment back in the Democratic Party message where it belongs for 2006, 2008 and beyond. Thank you for your help!:

5. makes me feel even better about joining the greens.
this shows that the dems are corporate puppets just like the GOPosse. maybe not to the same extent, but they are certainly in their pocket. after a lifetime of being a yellow dog democrat, switching to the green party was not a move made lightly or easily, or one that i'm still completely comfortable with. but news like this reassures me that i made the right decision.

You guys lets please send some comments about this. Environment is an extremely important issue and I don't want to lose votes to the greens either :)!

This is a great way to set us apart from the republicans who don't give a rats ass about the environment and lie about global warming or pretend like it doesn't exist. Lots of moderates care about the environment as well!

8. DNC folks:
:hi:

You've sold out. You no longer deserve my vote. The planet we're stuck on and it remaining viable for OUR CHILDREN is surprisingly important.

9. Interesting that the DLC website cites the environment as a ...
prime concern on the agenda.

Thoughts from the DLC haters re: this? Frum runs DLC. Dean runs DNC. DLC site mentions environmental protection, DNC does not.

:popcorn:
