The State Department has confirmed President Obama will skip the Rio+20 sustainable development summit in Brazil next week. It’s the third consecutive global environmental conference that Obama will miss after he avoided the last two UN climate talks in South Africa and Mexico. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Environmental Protection Agency head Lisa Jackson will lead the U.S. delegation.

So much campaign money to raise...so little time to do it in.

This will further alienate his Environmentalist supporters.
Maybe he’ll Tweet them from a fund raiser.
