Thanks, GUEST for 'Monkeywrench Hope'   (see 3:00)

As for Nerd, I see no connection between someone's opinion of Alan Lomax and his ability to ferret out the truth concerning John Kerry's Enviromnmental policies!

Here are a few quotes from the article:      

    "We all know Bush, the inveterate nick-name dropper, dubbed Lay "Kenny Boy." But they over look the fact that Lay and the Kerry's are also very good friends and frequent dining companions. Moreover, Ken Lay was recruited by Teresa Heinz Kerry for a seat on the board of her environmental foundation, where he was assigned the task of heading the foundation's global warming task force."

    "They charge that Bush...wants to open the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to drilling. They say that Kerry opposes this. And that's true, too. But they elide the fact that Kerry told Teamster's president Jimmy Hoffa that while he won't drill in ANWR, he does plan to drill "everywhere else like never before." Where would everywhere else include? The coastal plain of Alaska, offshore waters of Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico, the Rocky Mountain Front, the red rock country of Utah, the deserts of New Mexico, the Powder River Basin of Wyoming."

    "There's more. Kerry met with the American Gas Association a few weeks ago and pledged his support for a Trans-Alaska-Canada Natural Gas Pipeline that will cut across some of the most incredible tundra and taiga on Earth -- a project that will dwarf the Trans-Alaska Pipeline. No one among the Beltway Greens even squeaked. This amounts to a grand and debilitating hypocrisy."
