Well, the fact of the matter is that President Clinton signed Executive Orders that *forced* all federal government agencies to behave as though the Kyoto Treaty *had* been ratified, even though it hadn't. Like what? Please cite. How can you force government agencies to do anything that is not based on law? You can issue whatever XO you like, but if it is not based on any law, courts throw them out regularly. Ask anyone who has practiced any admin law. Even if Bush repealed those XO's, the courts would have thrown them out anyways if they are not based on US law. BTW, the Bush administration did go back on the arsenic level XO. After repealing it, I think Bush reinstated it.

Do you not even hear yourself?
You are grasping at straws. You are bound and determined to question "everything" from every possible angle rather than dare give President Bush the slightest bit of credit.
You asked for an answer; I gave you an answer. Then you denied that XO's could even have any power, and now you want me to cite the actual XO's, and no doubt once I do that you'll find yet more weasel words rather than give Bush any credit for killing the Kyoto Global Warming treaty.
It's clear that your mind is made up, and mere facts aren't going to change that for you. In your warped world, Bush is bad, and no argument otherwise will dare be tolerated.
Gee .. guess you are a big fan of the Clinton Admin huh?
