"Yikes! I Might Be...Militia!"
Just a few days ago, the Guardian newspaper reported that the conservation charity WWF and an ad agency admitted that a press campaign comparing the loss of life in the New York 9/11 attacks and the Asian tsunami “should never have been made” (see ad campaign image at right).
Today, a Washington Independent report highlighted the effort by Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) to push climate change legislation on the eve of the anniversary of Sept. 11. Near the end of the piece, the writer highlights a comment made by Senator Kerry during a speech at George Washington University this morning:
“You know, the 9/11 Commission report found that in the lead-up to the attacks, we suffered from a ‘failure of imagination.’ We need to close the “imagination gap” on climate change and help people to envision a new kind of threat.
Who knew the French senator had ever worked for a living. Apparently, he’s been moonlighting with an advertising agency.

Actually, I suppose you would be surprised to know that Senator Kerry has been working real hard and putting in many hours for the sake of our country for many years now. Of course, if you actually used your computer for research rather than just to pass along misconceptions then you would already know this.
