John McCain tried to sell me one of these canvas bags, in exchange for signing up with the Environmental Defense Fund.  

That was before Obama turned the McCain-Lieberman Climate Stewardship Act into the McCain-Lieberman-Obama Climate Stewardship Act.  

I'm really getting confused by some of these groups that seem kinda half right, like the Environmental Defense Fund.  At first I thought McCain was just pretending to represent the Environmental Defense Fund, when his cyborg sent me that fundraising letter, 'cause the outfit he was pushing, endorsed by Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, was called the Environmental Defense Action Alert.  

But then I poked around the Net till I was pretty sure they were the same thing.  

The Sierra Club, the NRDC, and even----!!!!----the Apollo Alliance, are the only non-native groups working with the native Black Mesa Water Coalition in the Four Corners.  The Sierra Club seems sorta kinda OK there, in the native Four Corners, but here, Mary R. says they promoted Lennar's development in the shipyard.  And, in Obama's Illinois, around the Great Lakes, some local Sierra Club chose "clean coal" as their greenhouse gas limiting solution. 

But the Environmental Defense Fund seems to do some good stuff, especially with the Western Shoshone Defense Project, if I'm not mistaken.  So, anybody in the SF Greens know what to make of the Environmental Defense Fund?    

I got so pissed off about that Apollo Alliance using the Diné Navajo Dooda! Desert Rock Committee, which is fighting the Sithe Global Industries' attempt to build a 60-acre coal-fired power plant at Desert Rock, on the northwestern Navajo Rez,  that I left a message on one of their "It's getting hot in here" websites telling them to quit using these folks and their just-as-justice-ever-gets battle to promote the Apollo Alliance's crappy pro-nuclear, pro-bio-fuels, pro-ethanol message.    

I think that youth leader of theirs, Billy Paul, on leave from Yale for the past four years to promote the Apollo Alliance, is a a member of Skull and Bones in training, probably in training for the CIA as well.   R&R for one and all---Annie

In keeping with his promise to go beyond compostable plastic bags to 
re-usables, Ross Mirkarimi just forwarded the note below in his latest 
newsletter. Anyone who needs canvass bags should go for it fast and 
furiously so we can show the Dept. of Environment how high the demand is 
for such bags...

"Free Reusable Canvas Bags Available
