I Just Called Sen.Inhofe's Office Regarding Stopping Al Gore's/Live Earth's Concert in DC
Edited on Thu Mar-29-07 11:42 AM by RestoreGore
Previously I had posted that I believed Mr. Gore and Live Earth should have it's U.S. concert in venues like Glacier National Park by remote feed and other areas showing the effect global climate change is having on our country. I had stated that the usuals would try to play this as a partisan political concert and try to stop it, and Senator Inhofe has once again not disappointed on that score. However, that also does not mean that I am against it in Washington DC because of the importance of getting this message out.

That is why when I read that he is now trying to kill the resolution to keep it out of Washington DC I called his office to tell them that this is not a Democratic or Republican issue but a HUMAN issue and that Al Gore is not making this up, but only relaying what scientists have been stating for years. I also stated that I could not believe he was trying to stop citizens from actually displaying love for their planet, and that we all better join together soon because we are running out of time at our present rate of using GHGS that will make this planet unsustainable for human life. I asked him to reconsider using his political partisanship as a revenge tactic simply because he does not like Al Gore and see the bigger picture.

And yes, I know my words are probably wasted but if enough people called his office and flooded it with phone calls and faxes perhaps he would see that this is indeed not a political issue. And I also told him I have Republican relatives who also believe we are contributing to this crisis and that we have to do something about it. The Alliance for Climate Protection's board also has Republicans on it, including Theodore Roosevelt's great grandson.

So please, call his office and tell them that HIS political partisanship and personal vendetta should not stand in the way of citizens exercising their first amendment rights and that it is imperative that we join as citizens to work to preserve our planet!

1. Also ask Inhofe: Did he try to block the Crowning of RevMoon at the Capitol?
Edited on Thu Mar-29-07 11:43 AM by blm
I would bet more Republicans support environmental awareness than there were Democrats who support RevMoon the way Republicans do.

3. Good one! Oklahoma should be blanketed with documentation
of Jim Inhofe's support for the Moonies.

2. I called his office the other day to denounce his disgraceful behavior
Edited on Thu Mar-29-07 11:43 AM by calimary
in the way he treated a former Vice President and man of the GREATEST integrity. He acted like a brat. No wonder Mommy Boxer had to give him a good scolding in front of everybody.

This is good advice. YES we should be calling people like him who are doing nothing but getting in the way. WILFULLY getting in the way.

4. yes, absolutely, KEEP HIS PHONE RINGING
Edited on Thu Mar-29-07 11:51 AM by RestoreGore
And yes, how dare he treat a former Vice President the way he did, and yet respect a phony crook like Cheney. He needs to be told what the inconvenient truth is, and that truth is that he is an accomplice to the affects this crisis is having on real people and other species NOW.

6. Finally someone gets to the point
These are the reasons he says the things he says about global warming. Because he's paid to say it. I'm amazed the MSM hasn't picked up on this, though I probably shouldn't be. Moreover, his lap dog scientist David Deming at the University of Oklahoma has had many research grants funded through an Exxon-Mobil front group, and nobody talks about that either.

7. Yes, and don't forget Richard Lindzen
The crackpot who was allegedly paid by EXXON to appear in front of Congress and is a signer to the Leipzig Declaration which has also been debunked. I was waiting for Mr. Gore to mention the Leipzig Declaration in his testimony when Inhofe uttered Lindzen's name. They should have been exposed right there and then for the paid shills they are.
