Why is there not much talk on national homelessness and global warming in this election?


 
I do wish there was more talk on how to help with homelessness. Making new jobs is great, I all for it, but how do we help people get those jobs if they live on the street? Employers do have this thing about employees having addresses and look nice.

And what about taking care of the environment? I do hear about clean energy but not much more. What's up with that? Has the skeptics won?

I am well in Obama's corner, but I do wish there was some talk on these issues.

Yeah it's funny how homelessness magically disappears every time a dem is in the white house. Then the second a repuke takes office it's back again.
Just like gas prices, and the body count in the war.

3. And I find that odd.

With the numbers of people now living in their cars and motel rooms growing and with the reports about the acidity of the ocean rising, you would think somebody would say something.

But 0bama got us a record low unemployment level of 7.8% and just by being elected the planet started to heal and the rise of the oceans stopped. Why do you doubt your messiah?

4. This election, those things don't get votes...

Global warming concerns are down to 18% of environmental concerns. Environmental concerns, not overall concerns. Romney is happy not to have to say it's all bullshit too many times, and Obama is happy to not to have to explain it.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/global-warming-no-longer-americans-top-environmental-concern-poll-finds/2012/07/02/gJQAs9IHJW_story.html

Homelessness? Sure it should be an issue, but until it hits the headlines neither one of them will talk about it. See above.

Not to mention there has been NO warming for 15 years now, but what do scientists know? It used to be scientists were gods, now when they say there is no warming the left doesn't listen.

Count your blessing DUmmy, if homelessness was high on the radar, 0bama would have some splaining to do.

If it makes the DUmmies feel any better, homelessness and high gas prices will get 24/7 coverage starting January 21, 2013.

Yep and unemployment at 7.8% will go from being a record low, to depression levels again, then in 2016 when we are at about 5% they will say that that is too damn high too.

If 0bama wins, they will say that 7.7% in 2016 is major progress.  :-)

I thought disappeared. But will certainly resurface once Romney is elected.

Nah, not banned. Every OP she ever commented on, she drug out the woe-is-me, victim card.

I'll field this one. Because there is a sharp ultra right wing slant to the media.

And at 11:00 a.m. January 20, 2013 exactly.  Down to the hour.

Very true.
How much damage will be done between 7 Nov. and 20 Jan.?
That part worries me the most.

If reelected, Obama will require every conservative to buy a new refrigerator and give the box it came in to a homeless person.....he will sign an executive order giving each homeless person a new refrigerator and a solar panel so they can have a guest room and cold beer.
