Remember when I told you that John Kerry was coming for your air conditioner because it was a bigger threat than ISIS? I Told Mr. Kerry that he needs to lead by example. Well, someone started a petition on that very point.

WHEREAS, Secretary of State John F. Kerry has suggested that air conditioners are as big a threat as ISIS, and

WHEREAS, it is the duty of our elected and appointed government officials to lead by example,

THEREFORE, we call upon the U.S. Department of State to remove air conditioning from all property that the Department owns, rents, or otherwise employs, including but not limited to embassies, consulates, office buildings, etc., all vehicles owned and/or operated by the Department, and any other property, real or movable, owned, rented, or otherwise employed by the Department.

You can sign the petition here. It is very close to the target threshold of 50,000 signatures needed to send it to the President. I wonder if he’ll have a clue what the context is?
