Today, you said:
"Pitching his message to Oregon's environmentally-conscious voters, Obama called on the United States to "lead by example" on global warming, and develop new technologies at home which could be exported to developing countries. "We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK," Obama said. "That's not leadership. That's not going to happen," he added."
Er, Senator: 1] Yes, we in fact can expect other nations to say OK if we choose to set our thermostats at 72 degrees. It's none of their business what we eat or at what temperature our thermostats are set. 2] Are you under the zany impression that we have to get the permission of other countries when it comes to thermostat-setting, what we drive, and what we eat? And 3] No, I'm not "clinging" to these questions out of bitterness, either.
I hope Obama's astonishing comments get the attention they deserve.
