SAN FRANCISCO—The executive director of San Francisco-based environmental group Rainforest Action Network has died in a swimming accident at a beach near Mexico's Pacific coast resort of Puerto Vallarta, police said Friday.
Rebecca Tarbotton, 39, was swimming Wednesday at a beach about a half hour north of Puerto Vallarta when she was caught by a wave and tossed around, said Adan Leyva, spokesman for Puerto Vallarta municipal police.

Peace to her family, but the irony is thick.
Well, just think! What if she had fallen off the fiscal cliff onto that beach? Woulda broke her frickin neck and even worse... Oh! and OMG=Obama Must Go!!!
I think there is a bit of jungle type stuff just south of town. I didn’t go on that tour when I was there, back in the 80s, but was told that the movie Night of the Iguana was filmed at a location there.
She was a hypocrite who made people’s lives worse. Good riddance.
If her bottom was tarred she shouldn’t have sank.
I wonder who these scum are going to sue for this?

Schadenfreude .......
Tarbottom got stuck on the seabed..

Absolutely; the left rejoices when one of ours goes down (even makes it subject matter for comedians). This grifter can go to...wherever pagan freaks go.

Getting to close to being ONE with nature has it’s problems
She wants to reduce CO2 by raising electric rates on the lower middle class in Kentucky. Meanwhile she doesn’t have any problem maintaining a jet set lifestyle (and creating CO2 in the process). Good riddance.
