(nautical) To appear at a distance, to emerge in the field of vision.


Men are qualified for civil liberty in exact proportion to their
disposition to put moral chains upon their own appetites, — in
proportion as their love to justice is above their rapacity, — in
proportion as their soundness and sobriety of understanding is above
their vanity and presumption, — in proportion as they are more
disposed to listen to the counsels of the wise and good, in preference
to the flattery of knaves. Society cannot exist, unless a controlling
power upon will and appetite be placed somewhere; and the less of it
there is within, the more there must be without. It is ordained in the
eternal constitution of things, that men of intemperate minds cannot be
free. Their passions forge their fetters.
  --Edmund Burke



















Exxon is afraid, and here's why: our first ever national TV ad, Exxon Hates Your Children, is finally hitting the air, starting tonight. It's one of the very first ever truly crowdfunded, truly national political TV ads, with over 125,000 views online already - and Exxon knows that it's because people have had it with Big Oil, Gas & Coal's destruction of our children's future.
Now we need to prove their fears correct - we need to make the ad such a big hit that it sends a shockwave through our politics. Here's how you can make Exxon Hates Your Children a national gamechanger:
  1. Let all your friends know they should watch it, on TV or online, by tweeting it out and sharing it on Facebook.
  2. Sign our public petition to Congress and Exxon, telling them that the first thing thrown out of our budget ought to be corporate welfare for Big Oil.
  3. Pledge to watch the ad, then let all your friends know to do the same.
  4. Help us get Exxon Hates Your Children on the air where *you* live.
Thanks for all you do to make this movement real.
Sincerely,
John Sellers, The Other 98%
