Wasn't Democratic Underground founded to oppose George W. Bush Junior?Jeb Bush is running for president. WHAT THE HELL ARE WE GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
By working with another of the wealthiest people on Earth, President Xi Jinping of China, he plans collapse the worldwide economy. These two idiots plan to drive the world into a two-class system, similar to the Medieval Period.

After Bush wins, which he will - one way or another, according to past vote counts in Florida - when he ran against John Kerry, he will export more jobs to China. The main problem large companies from the USA and other nations have by polluting in China, for profit, is jet-streams, Gulf-streams and other atmospheric conditions. Exporting jobs to China equates to importing poisonous emissions all over the world. The end result is Climate Change. Did you know we are living during an extinction event that surpasses anything ever documented?
Here's a better question: "Why is climate change considered a Democrat idea? Have Republicans and Chinese aristocrats found another planet where oxygen and clean water is plentiful? How much does a space-flight to that planet cost?
I put forward the idea that China should move its capital when Beijing was covered by toxic smog early last year. A year has passed, and apart from the shock therapy of APEC blue, the air quality in Beijing is still sickening. While some people are worried that Beijing residents could turn into environmental refugees and run away, let's face the realitythe majority of mainland China's 1.3 billion people are, in fact, already environmental refugees.

(15,235 posts)1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image...
1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
9:11 And then God created the USA PATRIOT ACT and code for the NSA by saying "Be fruitful, and multiply." God(dess) finally gave a commandment people would actually follow, while we overpopulate...
"And," while we cannot add Climate Change to Pollution to see that it equates to total destruction of humanity, we sure know how to $uck-up!
6:66 And God(dess) should send me a damned spaceship ticket, before we over-pollute or overpopulate the planet!

in the next year, the way things are going, nuke power is going to be a deciding issue in the campaigns.
the environmental changes wrought via nuke pollution will be making headlines on a near daily basis. Bookmark it.

(146,254 posts)won't even be a blip on the screen of issues for 2016. Some people think a lot about it, but most people pay no attention at all to the nuclear power plants near them on any sort of regular basis.
There is no groundswell of opinion about it at all in the general population, so it won't be an issue for 2016. If the subject comes up, people generally have a negative sort of feeling about it, but then they forget about it again.
It certainly wont be a deciding issue in the election. Not a chance.

(13,685 posts)It is the nuke pollution that will be making headlines.
Already nuke power percentages of the total electric supply are dropping, and if not for Obama being a friend of one of the largest nuke companies in the US, the 2 plants being built because of government subsidies would have never broken ground. Big money in nukes, y'kow?
Like I say, the coming stories about the pollution will make nuke supporters look really bad in the coming campaign. People will be shocked and will react thusly.

Remember when Obama told us Fukushima was not going to bother us and that he would tell us if ever it was a threat?
Showed right there just how much he is owned by nuke power. We are damn lucky we haven't had a bad mistake in the US since TMI.... but the 100+ reactors we have running are ticking time bombs. Tick, tick, ticking....
