liberals who refuse to even CONSIDER putting up an actually pro-climate candidate

I got a push poll from my Congresswoman, Liz Fletcher (D), accusing her biggest primary race rival of being a far-left extremist who would destroy the Houston economy with his climate alarmism. The poll also accused him of sponsoring Hamas terrorism and being weak on women's rights because he wouldn't negotiate on an abortion bill.

Still a little squishy on Pervez Agwan, but Fletcher's poll did not help her case.

Political polls be like:

Do you support: (A) TERRORIST DEATH AND VIOLENCE (B) RAINBOWS AND SUNSHINE

Published results: 99% of people support ME!

Its more:

How would you feel if you knew that Candidate A loves kittens and personally donated $50000 to the SPAC, has six shelter kittens of her own, and has advanced legislation to fund a study that will guarantee all cats receive adequate housing, food, and medical care without raising taxes or increasing the national debt?

How would you feel if you knew that Candidate B once kicked a stray cat over a fence, took money from an organization that refers to cats as "feral" and "unloveable", hates Garfield, and won't support the CATS Acts?

Okay, thank you for your response.

Now, having heard those messages, would you feel more inclined to support Candidates A, C, b, or D?

Houston had not only like 100+ days of 100 degree weather, but we were also entering emergency water management conservation AND fire danger all over texas. It also doesn't help that Houston has a chemical plant explosion every other month. The idea that the economy and climate are separate it's so unhinged. Who is her opponent?

Pervez Agwan is the one to watch
