Change.org ^ | 7/24/16 | Me, as "Hopalong Ginsberg"

[Slings and Arrows]

WHEREAS, Secretary of State John F. Kerry has suggested that air conditioners are as big a threat as ISIS, and

WHEREAS, it is the duty of our elected and appointed government officials to lead by example,

THEREFORE, we call upon the U.S. Department of State to remove air conditioning from all property that the Department owns, rents, or otherwise employs, including but not limited to embassies, consulates, office buildings, etc., all vehicles owned and/or operated by the Department, and any other property, real or movable, owned, rented, or otherwise employed by the Department.

[Slings and Arrows]

Start a petition. ;)

[Slings and Arrows]

Sauce for the goose, etc.

Agreed we can’t have A/C at any gov.t building anymore,hand-fans(if only I had a photo) like those in church will work just fine.
To begin with all govt. a/c thermostats should be set at 85 degrees in the summer and 45 in the winter. Think of the energy that can be saved.....

[ifinnegan]

This is brilliant.

[Slings and Arrows]

Thanks!

Think globally, act locally.

[DJ Frisat]

LOL — gotta love this one!

Wasn’t it Obama who campaigned on conservation of energy through reduction of thermostat settings, yet then was exposed for having quite a high setting of his own in the WH?

Hypocrites, all of ‘em...

[irishMN]

They left a loophole, they need to add ‘devices capable of dehumidification’ to non-allowed devices. Otherwise awesome lol

[Oscar in Batangas]

Make it a petition on the White House petition website. They are obliged to respond if it gets >100,000 signatures, I believe.

[Slings and Arrows]

Good point.

[IamConservative]

How hypocritical can you get? Standing in an air conditioned room telling people A/C is more dangerous that ISIS.

[BunnySlippers]

Haha! They areal overpaid Dems.

[BunnySlippers]

Remove it from his homes and automobiles first ...and hotel rooms.

People say it’s hell trying to shop in big stores in Europe ....no AC.

[Slings and Arrows]

Thanks, I didn’t know that.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

You’re most welcome. I hope that in some small way you experienced epistemological closure.

[NTHockey]

Must be recent. Wife and I went to Spain and Italy in 2011 and 2012. All stores were air conditioned.

[I want the USA back]

Start with the white house and all the limosines.

[MNDude]

I’m sure they’ll gladly remove it from our military and VA Hospitals.

[stockpirate]

And from the cats he and any of his lacky staff uses.

[Squantos]

And ...... all government employees homes.
