Obama’s already on to pushing ‘climate change’
Our far-Left, liberal-progressive, wealth-redistribution, nanny state-seeking, job-busting, health care destroying, president will be corralling key Republican and Democratic senators on Tuesday whose support is critical for passing a climate change law, in an attempt to push climate change.
