Let's do nothing drastic; though we may well be in a position to lead in a sensible and workable program to conserve all resources, we still have an obligation to maintain the standard of living we have attained in order to help those still battling ancient diseases, deprivations and despotic rulers whose own needs are met regardless of the hardships they place on those they rule.

I believe we can do BOTH. When I say drastic, I mean, we can start a big Pro-Nuke program, and, say, a bio-fuels program. I know the Luddites want us to go back to the 6th century, but I dont think it is neccessary. The problem with Global Warming is that it has been co-opted by the socialist/communist/luddites. And thats a damn shame, because there are conservative alternatives to what alot of them prescribe.

Isn't it time we, our side, took a cautious, yet pro-active stance on GW? Just because "THEY" believe in it, doesn't make it false. Thats part of the stupidity of politics, I don't want any part of that. If I want to see that kind of thinking, I'll go read the DUmmie Funnies..
