Sign of sickness

Sun., Jan. 31, 2016

Denial of climate change, also known as global warming, is a form of a personality disorder. Wanting to kill your born and unborn grandchildren is totally irrational. Taking money in the form of campaign donations with the promise of defeating legislation to protect our environment and future generations is the symptom of a severe psychopathic personality. Case in point: the Republican presidential candidates.

Sitting on the fence to disguise future intentions in order to garner money from the climate destroyers is equally sick. Case in point: Hillary Clinton. I could make a case that greed is a mental illness, but I will save that for a future letter.
