Clean air?  Clean water? A clean environment?  These are not goals pushed by the Republican presidential candidates.  The Sierra Club has posted the Republican view at Vimeo (h/t DailyKos):

Romney didn't ask what American citizens thought about having clean water, air, and environment. Romney asked "...some of the oil and gas executives...." their opinions.  As you can see, Romney is more interested in the views of corporations and their CEO's than those of the American people.  We must remember that Romney thinks "..corporations are people too, my friend..."  However, we should remind Romney that corporations answer to stockholders who are looking for profits. Elected officials answer to their constituents who are looking for a stable, safe life.
