Dear U.S. Senate, Please Grow Yourselves a Pair On Climate and Energy

Dear U.S. Senate:

Please read this article about how China is taking the clean energy and vehicles lead and is poised to leave us in the dust in the next great economic boom - green technology.

Every day, it seems, I read something like this. Could it be any more clear just how important it is to our economic recovery, not to mention our national security, that you grow yourselves a friggin pair and pass a climate bill that packs the punch needed to propel the rise of our new green economy?

I don't care about bipartisanship, Senator Reid -- if Congressional Republicans' views on climate and energy are unfortunately somewhere between Fantasyland and The Flinstones, that's their problem (and is a big reason they are in the minority). I care about passing a bill that gets the job done.

Let's do this while you've got the votes -- because if you don't get the job done, you won't have those votes for long...

Yours truly,

Jon
