Was George Washington for Global Warming and Deforestation?
He chopped down a cherry tree for no reason. Just another politican ruining the environment and getting rich off of it. LOL
WOW Some people need to lighten up.
I`m sure Washington chopped down more than a cherry tree in his life time. A few pines and prob an oak and hickory....
