Lantern Endorsed by MOBAMA, Green Movment
July 9, 2009
Members of the Green (Lantern) Movement,
Today, MOBAMA (Missouri for Obama) and the Kansas Democratic Party became the latest high-profile endorsements for the Green Lantern, joining eco-justice heavyweights Green For All and 1Sky. "I've never been prouder to be Green," the Lantern explained at his 3rd annual DC Green Jobs Fair.
It is critical that the green movement turns out to vote tomorrow to ensure that green jobs is a top priority in the new administration.
The Green candidate is committed to putting the American Clean Energy and Security Act to work in DC and will unite industry and unions, create jobs and institute job training. The nation's capital will be a shining example of energy independence.
Look, it takes more than a Superhero to build a better world. The Green Lantern is fighting for you, and for the liberation of America from its energy dependence, but he needs you!
The online election starts tomorrow morning from 7 am - 6 pm EST.
Please tell 3 friends about the Green Lantern. Together, we can create a better world.
Evil Villain Sarah "SnowFLAKE" Palin faces Green Lantern
July 8, 2009
In our last episode, the Green Lantern--candidate for DC Mayor--took to the northern skies in search of Marrion Barry's elusive mystery woman.
Suddenly, over the Alaskan pipeline, our hero's Ring of Power darkened. Bending the fabric of reality, the Lantern turned on the Northern Lights and came face to face with his arch-nemesis Sarah "Snowflake" Palin.
Dressed to kill in a fur-lined designer outfit (paid for with government $$), riding a sled pulled by her Republican lapdogs, and taking aim at a pack of baby seals with a machine gun, was the evil scourge of truth herself. Removing her X-ray glasses, the Snowflake eviscerated a beer can with her fingernail dagger, drained it with one swig and burped a thunder clap.
Sarah Snowflake's evil voice iced over with insincere folksiness: "Never gonna happen ya know Lantern. We got it all worked out ya know."
The Green Lantern response was clear and confident. "You will never stop the will of the people Sarah Snowflake. I will be Mayor of DC."
Snowflake Palin smiled cruelly. "Doncha get it Greenie? It's like a whatchamacallit. Ya know, like a umm, conspiracy!" The Flake let out an evil high pitched cackle. "We're gonna stop the election!!!"
The Green Lantern needs your help! Democracy cannot be stopped.
Show Sarah "Snowflake" Palin the WILL OF THE PEOPLE.
Vote now to direct Green Lantern's next action.

Marion Barry foiled by Green Lantern
July 6, 2009
Mere hours after the Green Lantern announced his candidacy for DC Mayor, a sudden cry shattered the night!
Rushing to the scene, the Green Lantern discovered an elegant woman being accosted by a shadowy figure. Leaping into action, he incapacitated the attacker, DC Council Member Marion Barry, as the mystery woman melted into the gloom.
The Lantern's assurance to DC Metro police that local nuisances like Barry would no longer blight the city's reputation when the Superhero becomes Mayor was interrupted by Barry's contemptuous cackle: "You'll be Mayor in your dreams, Lantern! In your green dreams!"
What will happen next Lantern fans? Your votes will determine the Lantern's decision, but time is running out!
The choice is yours.
