Washington Post -
In a sort of power lunch for the not-so-powerful, President Barack Obama broke bread Friday with four winners of a contest for people who give to his campaign in small amounts.

4:55 D85 40H 'You're handing a wasteland to Eternity's Kids. U r OK with that?' SL
It's really not my purpose to harangue. If I believed you are really okay with handing eternity's children a wasteland, including today's young people, I suspect that except an say no more. I think you just haven't to looked, I think he haven't thought; maybe deliberately but nonetheless.
I didn't read the article but a headline in USA Today, that I saw in this coffee shop, in 20 years the Bengal tiger will be extinct. The science is clear that between 50 and 250 species go extinct today. Today. 50 to 250 went extinct yesterday. And at our current pace this will increase, is increasing by little bit every day, instead of decreasing and stopping, which we could do this.
I can't believe that you won't do everything in your power, devote everything you have everything you are to stopping this. Think of the movies they tried to show us where we're headed from the tragically real scenes in The Matrix, Total Recall, remember that scene on Mars, Avatar, Silent Running, Soylent Green... These weren't idle entertainments. The authors were seeing where we were going and desperately trying to show us, think about them. This is what were we are now, it's not a movie. We are handing this off to eternity's children. Eternity's children won't know what dolphins swimming in the sea are, what reefs are, what it is not to be going to war over food, what it is not to deluged with wars over what land is left that hasn't disappeared under 6, 18, 30, 38 foot sea level rise. Eternity's children will never know what Earth was like with 2 million species, roughly what we have today. At our current pace by 2050, half of them will be gone.
I can't believe you're okay with this. I can't believe. I believe you want to devote everything you are and everything you have to stopping this. And I'll keep sharing such thoughts, and doing everything I can to awaken you from the affloholism that's enabling you to allow this to happen, until I believe it's really, really want you in your heart, what your character wants.

Peggy Noon today picks up a theme, recently invoked by David Brooks, which has become a relentless Republican talking point on the presidential stump: Barack Obama is a divider or, as Newt Gingrich inimitably put it to a crowd in Davenport, Iowa, which I report in my print column this week: "The Pre...
