Dear Al,
In order to solve the climate crisis, we can't just change light bulbs -- we need to change laws.
We're closer today than ever before. Right now, Congress is debating clean energy legislation that will jumpstart our economy and help solve the climate crisis.
On this Earth Day, can I depend on you to support this crucial legislation?
Yes. I'll get 10 people to sign the petition in support of clean energy legislation within the next week.
This is the historic comprehensive energy legislation that we've been waiting for. It will create millions of jobs and help solve the climate crisis by closing the carbon pollution loophole.
After so many years of inaction and obstruction, it's incredible that we have finally reached this point. But the legislative process is never easy. With powerful forces fighting hard to maintain the status quo, it will take all of us working together to seize this moment.
Today, you are one of more than two million Repower America members, and tens of millions of Americans, who want to take positive action for our planet. This is it -- a chance to demonstrate nationwide support for clean energy to our leaders in Congress, and help to bring about a new economic era based on clean energy.
So please, talk to your friends. Talk to your parents or grandparents. Start a conversation with a co-worker. And ask them to join with you and the millions of other Americans who want Congress to support clean energy jobs by closing the carbon pollution loophole.
Yes. I'll get 10 people to support this historic clean energy legislation in Congress.
I support clean energy but I'd like to help in other ways.
Your efforts have brought us this far. I hope you take this opportunity to make this a historic Earth Day.
Thank you,
Al Gore

Thanks EM... I will be signing it soon...As my cousin had said in a sister thread...we had been running too many bad vibes lately...so we though we would take the focus off of the 'negativity' of others and focus some positive energy instead... ;)
No use advertising 'bad' links when we should be concentrating on 'good' links in stead...
As for watching others activities...well that is why we have DHS...The FBI...and the CIA for...I am SURE they have already SEEN what we have been complaining about...We will let them HANDLE it! :clap: http://z8.invisionfree.com/Al_Gore_Support...entry10748944

yes, papa and I had come to this agreement. Reporting on the 'bad' activities of others just gives them attention they do NOT need!
It's OK to Parody Failure or Report on Tea Party Lunacy, but we felt we were giving Hannity.com just waaaay to much publicity, for what they are saying.
We were showing you 'examples' of what we are fighting against. We have decided it was better to report these activities to 'authorities' rather than give them a 'bigger bloody soapbox' to pontificate from!
So THAT is why we are linking and working on POSITIVE THREADS!
If you all don't mind that is. :laugh:
