I'd like Boxer to tell those she visits how they will be able to differentiate those fires "due to climate", from those fires caused by lightening, cigarettes and other causes.
I'd also like her to tell them just how many fires will be eliminated by signing onto her and Obama's plan for reducing CO2. And how much the temperature will drop through same actions.
Would make fascinating listening I'm sure.
