President Obama joins Facebook, addresses climate change in first post
Source: CNN
President Barack Obama joined Facebook on Monday and said he wanted his account to be "a place where we can have real conversations," diving right in with his first post on climate change.
In that post, Obama took Facebook users on a walk through his back yard at the White House and calling on Americans in a video "to preserve this beautiful planet of ours."
"Not only do I want future presidents to be able to take walks like this," Obama said in a video post on his profile. "I want to make sure that the American people are able to enjoy the incredible national parks, incredible beauty, the mountains, the oceans, that have been one of the greatest gifts we've ever received."
The President chose Facebook because "at a time when nearly three in four adults online use Facebook, this feels like a great place to do it," he writes.

And I shut down his discussion forum within minutes of posting and within hours of it starting up?
DU archive now, I guess. George W. Bush Facebook page: How Kerry Votes Were Switched To Bush Votes
I'll dig up the link on edit.
ON EDIT: That post is missing from DU now. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x8472711
The graphics are still online and I saved the pages, images, etc. Check this bit of Deja DU:
Bush removed the Discussion area entirely that very moment. I had an image on my web server in the post so Bush's computer requested the image from my server and that's how I acquired Bush's computer's IP number.
