The Dems fight like hell to oppose this bullshit, but we are shot down as much by our otherwise supporters as we are by our adamant opposition.

1. doesn't look like he's going green from what I read.
looks like a litany of administration attacks on the environmental quality of this country including even the pristine park areas.

Am I missing something?

2. You must be a radical. The administration's views are mainstream
What other would you expect?

3. The shrub, with his manipulators, will eat our lunch in 2004.
5th Avenue adverising not only sells gadgets, they are EXPERTS in selling Presidents as well. My goodness.

4. Are you sure that you don't mean "goes FOR the green!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
As in $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

otherwise known from time to time as GREENbacks?

He is such a money grubbing little worm, isn't he?

When it come to $Green versus environmental green, is there any doubt where the shrub goes, like a fly to a stinking pile of crap?

Nice trick though, to get folks to check out the latest evidence.

5. What does this have to do with a RedJellyFish?
Concerned DUer's can check out http://www.redjellyfish.com/.

Find out about:

Activist camp teaches it all - from tree sitting to road blockades.
Deep in the Bitterroot Mountains of southwestern Montana, a giant solar panel powers a weeklong boot camp for the civilly disobedient, where training harnesses hang from trees and directories point students to classes on road blockades, tree sitting and forest navigation.

Return there often, and click to donate for free to save rainforest land and supply food to chimps.

Find out more about:

Better than Bricks: A School Built of Straw
As many educators and parents are beginning to realize, the physical space students occupy contributes greatly to their emotional and educational experience. That is why students at the Waldorf School on the Roaring Fork, in western Colorado, spend their days in a beautiful, nurturing, passive-solar, straw-bale school.

9. Yes, they have their share of nonsense on there........
I wouldn't say so much violated, but I think that is because I can tell the difference. A fair amount of the advertising is hokey. And of course some vendors of the products are hokey, too.

But, if they want to save a little rainforest and feed some chimps, I am glad to view it for the few seconds that it takes to click the links. (They keep a nice running total for the user about how many square feet and how many cups of chimp food have been donated.)

Well, some of the advertisers are quite good, too. Like Aubrey Organics for one. They have had links to organic wineries, and other organic produce vendors, etc.

I shop at the local natural foods co-op, and they have a lot of hokey stuff in there. Maybe it's like the old jazz tune made popular by Les McCann and Eddie Harris: Try to Make It Real COMPARED TO WHAT!

Did you check out the story about the straw bale school house? Now, I think that is useful information. I know people in the Southwest who have built some beautiful straw bale homes. This is quite a good advancement in architecture and aesthetics, not to mention energy efficiency and saving of timber resources.

Sometimes RedJellyFish has run a column by VeggieMan. He has some creative answers for those exploring and learning about alternatives to the SAD (Standard American Diet) sytems that prevail in the US.

Today, they also have a story about ......

Raising Vegan Children...
You want your vegan kids to be healthy, happy, confident, and compassionate. You want to make sure they're eating right. Raising Vegan Children in a Non-Vegan World by Erin Pavlina is an essential guide for anyone raising vegan children, or planning to in the future. Packed with practical, useful, and creative ideas, the book promises parent-tested answers to your most pressing questions.


Thanks for asking.

Keep on Truckin' ......................

8. You are very welcome, Cronus
although I might disagree with you from time to time and you with me, I think our objectives remain very much similar. Your base for data is truly respectable.
