The best campaign counter-attack video I HAVE EVER SEEN. Obama 2012 

”So we’re going to call their BS when we see it and we need your help to call them on it too and set the record straight. So share this, tweet it, facebook it, I keep hearing about tumblr and whatever that is…please use that too. Thank you.”

-Stephanie Cutter / Deputy Campaign Manager at Obama for America. 

And a Tumblr shout-out. 

Just for the tumblr plug at the end >.<

You have my axe, Obama campaign.

What I like most about tumblr is how educated the users can be. Will always reblog.  This generation knows how to argue.

So this is real.

Yeah. And it DOES say “HIHATER.”

America doesn’t say it, but every pregnant woman I’ve ever known has been given paid maternity leave. Loads of it. It might not be mandatory here,…

Maternity leave existed about 10 years ago at my old job.  Then most companies changed over to “short term disability” and insurance companies have taken it over.  In most places, this means you have to take a week of vacation, and then you get 5 more weeks at one-quarter to one-half pay.  Then you can take family medical leave at NO PAY.  The only thing that is required is the family medical leave, so companies really make you feel bad for taking short term disability for maternity leave.  As far as family values goes, USA sucks.  Actually the same companies will give you full time sick leave/PTO for an abortion.

Dear Michelle Obama,

I’d like to wish you a very Happy Mother’s Day! You are so wonderful with your kids and your family warms my heart.

Unfortunately for many American families living in rural communities across the country, we are living with the very real dangers and consequences of fracking. The unregulated gas industry is sacrificing our air, water, health, animals, farmed foods and our pristine way of life for profits. They do not care, but I’m sure you do. Children near well sites are getting asthma at alarming rates. Livestock are dying. Citizens can light their tap water on FIRE. People are getting cancer and neurological diseases near fracked wells. Our organic foods are being contaminated with chemicals in the air and water. Our pristine landscapes are threatened with the industrialization of our small towns. We do not want to sacrifice our lives to this highly risky method of gas extraction.

There are sustainable energy alternatives like solar and wind that do not poison and kill our citizens.

Please ask your husband to look at the science and to BAN FRACKING. It is NOT safe as the industry would lead you to believe. Our families want to have a Happy Mother’s Day too.

Well said!  Signal Boost.  This is my “Dear Michelle” letter too.

What is fracking?

Horizontal hydraulic fracturing — or fracking — is a drilling method used by oil companies to extract gas from shale as deep as 8,000 feet below the surface. Horizontal fracking mixes hundreds of chemicals with millions gallons of water and blasts it into the ground under high pressure to break up shale and rock and release gas.

How is it dangerous?

Not only does the process use millions of gallons of water which are then contaminated by chemicals and radioactive material, the fracks often leak chemicals and gas into the ground water, contaminating wells and rivers that supply drinking water for millions of people. The extent of the harm caused by fracking remains unknown, but many residents exposed to the water and air contaminated by fracking toxins have reported health concerns ranging from nausea and fainting spells to respiratory problems and even cancer.

Where does it take place?

Fracking is happening in 28 states. Any land containing shale is prime fracking territory. The effects of fracking can be felt in a wide radius around each and every drill site.

Mark Ruffalo, “I heard about hydrofracking before I moved my family to New York, and I thought it was going to be the greatest thing since sliced bread. It was going to bring this vibrant new economy to upstate New York. But I also started to hear some questionable things about it. So I went to the old Internet and started doing some research. At this time, there was very little to learn. The gas industry is very rosy and extremely positive. There were inklings from EPA whistleblowers and people in Wyoming whose homes were filling with gas and were coming up with these neurological disorders from the drinking water. So I decided, “I have to go look at this for myself.”

You can make a difference, guys ♥

This really gets my goat.  Does this mean all aborted fetuses are Christian?  What about the miscarriages, are they Christian too? Last time something was carved in the palm of my hand, the hand was useless.
