<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">This is still a little biased, but I think it generally ‘splains it well! (I say biased, because such comments as the one about global warming assumes an inherent acceptance
of global warming rather than an understanding of what is really climate change and the need for all citizens recognizing their individual and corporate responsibilities for the earth). Also under sources they list Brookings Institute, a known liberal think
tank, and ignore think tanks that might be more measured and balanced.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
