+ Everyone talks about wanting Bush and his cronies out. Well make the effort. MoveOn.org wants to run an anti Bush ad during Super Bowl Sunday February 1st (one of the most watched time slots in America). CBS refuses to run it saying it’s too contraversial. It’s not. CBS wants Bush back for another term. Do you? The ad is controversial, but certainly not TOO controversial.

Watch the video and afterwards fill in and send a message to CBS requesting they air the ad.

Also of note is that MoveOn.org is hosting a video of the real US President Al Gore’s January speech on the history and politics of the environment in the US and the world. - also available as a text file. - Quite an impassioned speaker Mr. Gore. An hour and twenty minutes definitely worth spending to hear him talk about the current US administration’s behavior towards our environment; they disregard a hundred years of efforts by every previous administration to improve and protect the environment. He accuses the Bush Administration of “actually appointing the principal lobbyists and lawyers for the biggest polluters to be in charge of administering the laws that their clients are charged with violating.” They’ve also “gutted the protections of the Clean Air Act,” including revoking the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) determination that Mercury is a hazardous air pollutant; mercury released into the air by coal mines is not regulated. And they removed the corporate tax which supported the Superfund program, an arm of the EPA that cleans up hazardous waste sites. - In early January the EPA reported that the Superfund was unable to continue due to a shortfall of nearly $175 million; it used to have $3.8 billion in resources. This was under reported according to my news.google search. - the media distracted by so many other important issues, like putting people on the Moon and Mars perhaps. - it’s a fucking travesty that the world has to suffer the likes of Bush and Cheney, when Al Gore is the real President of the United States…
