The emergence of climate change as an issue dividing Republicans shows just how far the discussion has shifted since 1997, when the Senate voted, 95 to 0, to oppose any international climate treaty that could hurt the American economy or excused China from responsibilities.

Horse****. The 1997 Senate vote was about the Kyoto treaty, which was a blatant economic IED aimed at America. Any similarly ridiculous treaty that singled out America would meet the same fate today, "discussion" or no discussion.

People forget that it was a unanimous vote.
