Where's the fight to put a price on carbon? Where's the protection for the Gulf after the worst environmental disaster in our history? Where's the clear bold Dem message that would combat the anti-science, corporate-whoring message of the right??

I could go on and on but the answer is simple: Dem "leaders" have adopted a kindler, gentler version of Republican corporate-whoring rather than standing up for the earth and the children who will inherit this mess.
