I think if we all march in one big group, maybe they will get it! It is not "made up" anger with the spending. I have not been paid like they do for ACORN people. So let's march soon! July 4th?????

Schumer: 'The Hard Right, Which Still Believes' in 'Traditional Values'...'All That Is Over.'

I am so sick of the liberals stating these values are a joke. Just because the don't have morals or values, they think we are all the same. I am one to say NO WAY .... I believe in the American way and dream. I came from nothing and I made something of myself without any help from the Government. So the American dream and values are alive and well. If they don't think so, please go to France!

It would be easier and cheaper to hire armed forces to be placed on these ships than sending the entire Navy which leaves us vulnerable in other area's. Again why is the US the police of the world? Why do other countries pay these demands from the pirates? It only encourages and emboldens them.
Force is what is needed with these type of people, not talking ...... hear us Obama!!!!

WASHINGTON (AP) - The president's new science adviser said Wednesday that global warming is so dire, the Obama administration is discussing radical technologies to cool Earth's air.
John Holdren told The Associated Press in his first interview since being confirmed last month that the idea of geoengineering the climate is being discussed. One such extreme option includes shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun's rays. Holdren said such an experimental measure would only be used as a last resort.
"It's got to be looked at," he said. "We don't have the luxury of taking any approach off the table."
Holdren outlined several "tipping points" involving global warming that could be fast approaching. Once such milestones are reached, such as complete loss of summer sea ice in the Arctic, it increases chances of "really intolerable consequences," he said.
Twice in a half-hour interview, Holdren compared global warming to being "in a car with bad brakes driving toward a cliff in the fog."
At first, Holdren characterized the potential need to technologically tinker with the climate as just his personal view. However, he went on to say he has raised it in administration discussions.
Holdren, a 65-year-old physicist, is far from alone in taking geoengineering more seriously. The National Academy of Science is making climate tinkering the subject of its first workshop in its new multidiscipline climate challenges program. The British parliament has also discussed the idea.
The American Meteorological Society is crafting a policy statement on geoengineering that says "it is prudent to consider geoengineering's potential, to understand its limits and to avoid rash deployment."
Last week, Princeton scientist Robert Socolow told the National Academy that geoengineering should be an available option in case climate worsens dramatically.
But Holdren noted that shooting particles into the air—making an artificial volcano as one Nobel laureate has suggested—could have grave side effects and would not completely solve all the problems from soaring greenhouse gas emissions. So such actions could not be taken lightly, he said.
Still, "we might get desperate enough to want to use it," he added.
Another geoengineering option he mentioned was the use of so-called artificial trees to suck carbon dioxide—the chief human-caused greenhouse gas—out of the air and store it. At first that seemed prohibitively expensive, but a re-examination of the approach shows it might be less costly, he said.

Please watch and pass to others!
Glenn, you should play some of this on your TV program.
