Maureen OтАЩDowd, one of my favourite columnists at the New York Times, wrote this recently about the Obama campaign:
{Obama}тАЩs already in danger of seeming too prissy about food - a perception heightened when The Wall Street Journal reported that the planners for ObamaтАЩs convention have hired the first-ever Director of Greening, the environmental activist Andrea Robinson. She in turn hired an Official Carbon Adviser to тАЬmeasure the greenhouse-gas emissions of every placard, every plane trip, every appetizer prepared and every coffee cup tossed.тАЭ
The тАЬlean тАШnтАЩ greenтАЭ catering guidelines, The Journal said, bar fried food and instruct that, тАЬon the theory that nutritious food is more vibrant, each meal should include тАШat least three of the following colors: red, green, yellow, blue/purple, and white.тАЩ (Garnishes donтАЩt count.) At least 70% of the ingredients should be organic or grown locally, to minimize emissions from fuel during transportation.тАЭ
Bring it on, Ozone Democrats! Because if Obama gets elected and there is nothing funny about him, it wonтАЩt be the economy thatтАЩs depressed. It will be the rest of us.

By the way all you Hillary champions of postings past тАУ IтАЩm collecting on my bet with iTrade that there wonтАЩt be a President Clinton elected in November тАШ08
