Ashley Judd articulates the history of how corporate abuse systemic in all are communities has destroyed the Appalachian way of life. I know that Senator Feingold is trying to protect Wisconsin against Ron Kind who wants to drill in the Great Lakes. It would destroy the Great Lakes regions way of life. These big energy guys have no intention of slowing this abuse, and have candidates who are financially invested in their co. So it would be like Ron Kind is a corporate spokesperson of B.P. because he owns $315,000 in BP stock.

2. I am Extremely Proud of Ashley Judd...

She is a powerful voice for the people of Appalachia who have been so horribly impacted by big coal. Their reaction to her words, they posted a picture of her topless (hands strategically placed) with the caption, if Ashley Judd can go topless, why can't the mountains? (paraphrased)

Big coal, big oil, big pharma...all the same.

...plus she's a fellow alumnus of the University of Kentucky.

3. I briefly looked at that and, was wondering what that was about.

Now it makes sense.
