If Pataki really believed that strongly in Kyoto, he would push implementation of Kyoto on an accelerated track in time to destroy enough businesses to ruin HitLIARY's re-election chances in '06.
Meantime, If I were Bush, I would let Pataki have all the rope he and his fellow blue state governors need to hang themselves, then begin arresting them for violations of the Constitution and federal law.
Sounds to me, however, as though the move toward blue state secession is underway - led by Pataki.
Buh-bye, ya'll!!
Don't come back or look for help when you are the newest members in the third world!
(I LOVE leftist, intellectual, smarter-than-thou stupidity!!!)
"Sounds to me, however, as though the move toward blue state secession is underway - led by Pataki."
If liberal states do declare that they will secede from the Union, it will start another civil war.
Pataki and any other liberal state can institute the Kyoto protocols if they wish.
BUT they may NOT do it by signing an 'international treaty'.
Only the Federal government can do that.
Yes, the rat governors better word their global warming laws carefully. If they do not, the illegal laws may be ignored by companies and individual.
Not only is it NOT an major embarrassment but I doubt the President could care less. What the British press doesn't understand is we have a concept here called "Federalism" that allows states to do what they want within Constitutional guidelines.
It amazes me that as bad as the American press is, the British are even worse. But I guess the philosophy of "never letting facts get in the way of a good story" is alive and well.
BTTT!!!!!!
There goes more industry off shore, or maybe down to Dixie.
Hee,Hee,Hee-bring 'em on, we know how to show our
appreciation to job creators.
Thank you NY and the Loco Kyota accord.

We can argue the merits of a civil war, but I sincerely doubt it will come to that. Besides, the Constitution allows states to secede against the tyranny of the central government.
Granted, the tyranny is coming from the blue states and not the central government, so it should present something of an interesting conundrum.
