Obama is too busy being sequestered to care about the environment. Doesn’t he realize that the economy depends on surviving climate chaos? What’s few billion here and there, like after storm Sandy for example, pretty soon we will be talking real money.

Marilyn845 commented on the diary post Pres. Obama’s Big Oil host has history of war profiteering, discrimination (Action) by joanneleon.
Obama ignores 50,000 of his constituents protesting Keystone XL pipeline in DC and more across the country. Instead, he goes golfing with a man owns a company that builds pipelines: Jim Crane. Nice.

Marilyn845 commented on the diary post Saturday Art – Thoughts on Manipulating Photographs by Steve Johnson.
When it comes to creating an art work, it may be the only thing we have control over, in our lives. For a beginner I advise looking at the blank canvas or the computer screen and trying everything, do what pleases YOU. Experiment, wallow in it like a drunk in a liquor cabinet. Forget the [...]
