Two stories in today's Washington Post caught my eye. Both pieces raised my ire.

1. the first detailed the vandalism of a Hummer in a suburban DC neighborhood
2. the second confirmed what we knew all along–many of our VP's energy task force meetings were clandestine

There is no excuse for the kind of vandalism-in-the-name-of-the-environment that took place in Northwest Washington. Nor is there a moral basis or justification for Cheney's modus operandi. Neither instance is going to help us all find the middle ground so necessary to solving the issue of global warming.

Extremism at both ends of the global warming spectrum is counter-productive. Can't we all play fair, roll up our sleeves and get to work? What is it going to take?
