Last Night in Manhattan: Zach Braff, Kevin Bacon Maggie Gyllenhaal Turn Out for Global Warming Debate - DNAinfo.com
MANHATTAN — Several of New York's A-list actors turned out Tuesday night to a comedy event hosted by Sarah Silverman in honor of Lexus as the International Auto Show kicked off at the Javits Center.

Zach Braff, Kevin Bacon, Kyra Sedgwick, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Emmy Rossum, and Gretchen Mol were in attendance at Skylight West in Midtown for the event, a debate about the existence of global warming, called "The Darker Side of Green."
New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg: "Drill, baby, drill" = "Kill, baby, kill" - Ben Smith - POLITICO.com
“Drilling off the Virginia coast would endanger many of New Jersey’s beaches and vibrant coastal economies,” stated Lautenberg. “Giving Big Oil more access to our nation’s waters is really a 'Kill, baby, kill' policy: It threatens to kill jobs, kill marine life and kill coastal economies that generate billions of dollars. Offshore drilling isn’t the solution to our energy problems, and I will fight this policy and continue to push for 21st-century clean energy solutions.”
The Reference Frame: Obama: drill, baby, drill, and fight climate change
...it's preposterous to suggest that Obama is going to drill "to help to fight climate change". I think it's clear that he's giving the "fight" up, and it's painful that he doesn't have the courage to confess this obvious fact explicitly.
