addendum to previous post

Dear Friends,
Just want to call your attention to the LA Times today, which headlines "Conservative Duo reach seat of power." It states that the billionaire conservative Koch brothers "are now at the center of Republican power," having contributed  over a quarter million dollars to members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. "Nine of the 12 new Republicans on the panel signed a pledge distributed by a Koch founded advocacy group...to oppose the Obama administration's proposal to regulate greenhouse gases." ...A top goal is "restricting the reach of the Environmental Protection Agency which oversees the Kochs' core energy businesses."
Perhaps the demonstration in Rancho Mirage brought some light to this matter, which is obviously of very serious concern. "Our Democracy is not for Sale," or is it?
Thanks for listening!
