For the record, my cite of the issue of starvation was to show that as a group, politicians and their ilk do not get in a lather to solve a problem that costs human life everday right now, that is directly addressable, and for which there is NO disagreement on, as to its existence and human costs.

No, they would rather chat about something that MIGHT be ocurring and that might have serious consequences and that we MIGHT be able to curtail a bit, if at all.

Why? Imagine Al Gore or anyone else trying to sponsor a gasoline tax that would pay for food, water, water projects, and related matters. Well, I assert, this would go nowhere fast.

However, if Al is trying to save Malibu beachfront property being to Alec Baldwin, well, that is another matter.

Oh, yes and those polar bears. BTW- I love polar bears.

I would always go back to my list of those who WIN under the global warming is real and we did it scenario. That list explains alot.
