FOE Action tells McCain, "No more pork for corporate polluters!"

Friends of the Earth Action president, Dr. Brent Blackwalder, calls out McCain:

You know how self righteous John McCain can be when he talks about corporate pork and earmarks, but do you know why he opposes the Lieberman-Warner global warming bill?  He plans to vote against it not because it could lavish $1 trillion on the profitable oil, gas and coal industries, but because he wants to add hundreds of billions of dollars more in earmarks for the nuclear industry!  

Yeah, what a maverick.

"Senator McCain throughout the campaign has been trying to make it seem like he's a moderate on the environment," said Friends of the Earth spokesman Nick Berning.  "But his actions haven't been consistent with his rhetoric.  We're going right after that image to put pressure on him, because we do want him to be a maverick on the environment."

FOE Action has a new television ad running nationwide on CNN.  Let's help out FOE Action and start smacking McCain around a little, instead of each other.
