The media was hailing the success of Kyoto last week when Mr. Bush steps into the fold. But did he?
An editorial in the Wall Street Journal suggests that Mr. Bush brings Europe around to his view more than he ( Bush ) capitulates to the outrage of the greens and the world in general.
Just goes to show how much smog and fog the media and interest groups generate which obscures from public view & scrutiny the real facts and the real issues about climate change and pollutant emmissions under Kyoto.
Oh yeah, another inconvenient truth ( are you listening Al ? ). From 2000 to 2004 < those are the Dark Ages in the lexicon of Bush-haters > CO2 emmissions throughout Europe increase by 2.3% with only two European nations actually reducing their CO2 emmissions. Go greens go! :down: OTOH, in Bush country ( that's America for those patriots who renounced their citizenship when Bush moved into the Whitehouse ) US CO2 emmissions drop over 8%. The math of the media which denounces the president's policy doesn't quite add up, does it? And all of this while the US economy grows and Europe scleroses -- might that have something to do with tax breaks and letting people work, spend, and invest themselves?
Sorry if I sound glib, but you get that way after years of listening to media half-truths and shrieking for 6 years. But I am glad that the fallacies of Kyoto are exposed. Now if politicians can sit down and create policy of substance which conforms to reality while providing rationality to the climate debate, then we will all benefit greatly.
Where's Al? That's right, he's out back planting a tree so he can heat his swimming pool and feel good about himself when he goes to bed ( if only he could get over the bed wetting problem ).
I'm feelin' a little mean today, and apologize for that. But it felt good. B)
