By on June 13, 2010 in Archived, Events, Headlines

Holy Spirit Lutheran Church in Kirkland will host a formal discussion open to the public regarding climate change with Congressman Jay Inslee (1st District – Democrat) on July 25th at 7:00 PM.  The church is located at 10021 NE 124th St. in the Juanita neighborhood.

Congressman Inslee will cover such topics as the impacts of climate change being felt around the world, the current state of federal legislation, and actions concerned citizens can take to promote legislative progress.

The church’s advocacy and environmental stewardship committees are hosting the event with Congressman Inslee as part of the church’s continued effort to provide ongoing opportunities to explore topics which of are local and national interest as well as to educate, encourage, and enable church members and the surrounding community to take part in advocacy.  The church has hosted candidate forums in the past for candidates of the Kirkland city council and the state legislature.

    Rep Inslee has NO expertise on climatology. These political meetings masquerading as serious discussions of science are nothing more than propaganda exercises intended to raise support for higher taxation, more government intervention in business, and redistribution of people's wealth.

    There is a serious way to approach energy usage, production, and conservation. Unfortunately, Rep. Inslee lacks the knowledge and ability to lead such an approach.

    I agree that politicians are not the ones to discuss climate change or any other scientific matter. They are unable to even understand the basics of economics. Politicians like Mr. Inslee need to spend their time learning how to cut back on their own unsustainable spending of tax dollars and stop telling the rest of us how to conduct our lives.

    I was at the Inglemoor high school town hall meeting. Inslee was asked about the benzene used to extract natural gas, and its effect on the water table. He looked like a deer in headlights, had no idea and he sits on the energy committee. After this many years in congress he should know what he is talking about and it appears he does not.
    Only a fool would vote for him again.
