Another Nail in the Global Warming Coffin

E-mail the Congress:

EIN News says, "Largest U.S. Farm Group Rallies Against Climate Bill. The largest U.S. farm group will oppose aggressively "misguided" climate legislation pending in Congress and fight animal rights activists, said American Farm Bureau Federation president Bob Stallman on Sunday. In a speech opening the four-day AFBF convention, Stallman said American farmers and ranchers "must aggressively respond to extremists" and "misguided, activist-driven regulation (reuters.com)".

Where have these people been up to now? Perhaps they finally see that the ship is sinking. Most likely they have been sitting on their haunches, because they have been receiving subsidies and did not want to shake up the goose laying the golden eggs. But, the goose is dying, and we should all be giving a last-minute effort to keep it alive.

In spite of that negative comment, hooray for the American Farm Bureau Federation and particularly Bob Stallman! We can use all the help we can get in trying to wake up Congress to the terrible myth of carbon dioxide in global warming and the need for its control.
