Secular Talk: Energy Secretary Told To Shut Up About Global Warming

[WhoIsNumberNone]

Yes, team Obama actively muzzled Energy Secretary Stephen Chu and many others on climate change in its first term, as we've long reported.

But in a lengthy piece, "Locked in the Cabinet," Politico explains that the West Wing put the leash on almost all of their cabinet secretaries. It just so happened that "the smaller dogs proved easier to muzzle."

1. It would be nice that when I vote for a Democratic Administration,

that we actually get one. And some people wonder why all the talk about both parties being the same. Well, except for the little matter of degree, they are and have been pretty much the same, ever since the DLC took over the Democratic Party.

Blue Dogs, DLC, 3rd Way Southern Democrats and the like, are all Right Wing pollution of Liberal and Progressive policies.

2. Money doesn't talk is swears obscenely and saps the democracy from our very government

This is why the number one domestic political issue for me is Citizens United v FEC. This is not compatible with our Nation and what we Dream.
