That sounds very weak. Our representatives actually reversed the United States stated positions based on some jeers and boos?
Yes, and here’s the agreement:
1)Completely shut down all your industry.
2)Get rid of any motorized conveyance.
3)If it burns a fuel of some kind, don’t use it.
4)Kill off 80% of the population, starting with white Americans.
Sound about right?
As I read this, all that we agreed to was “Somebody somewhere should do something”. The same sidestep the governor of Texas in “Best Little Whorehouse in Texas” used when he wanted to be vague.
That was the result I expected from this conference as soon as I saw Australis’s new government back away from the promised concrete commitments they were making only two weeks ago. What’s the problem?

Well, in their defense it was an away game and the crown noise in the red zone was deafening. Couldn’t hear the signals worth a darn. Fumbled on the 1 yard line and lost the ball.
“After being jeered and booed, the U.S. reversed course and pledged to support the plan.”
Where does it say that? I don’t think that was stated in the article. In any case I think we should agree to participate under the condition that if there is no climate disaster by 2020, the UN is disbanded, and the whole environmental movement is forever silenced with violations punishible by death.
I foresee the need for many more conferences in Bali.

The article you posted and the article you linked are two different documents.
Is this your own editorial?
The media is gloating how much of a defeat and humiliation this is for Bush, but is it?
“Readers should understand that this was a huge victory for the U.S., and what was indeed missing from the Kyoto Protocol the Clinton administration, with support from then Vice President Al Gore and 95 senators, refused to ratify in 1997. Now, ten years later, developing nations are the ones that have capitulated and agreed to participate in emissions cuts.”
“Though most media will downplay this, it was indeed a win for the Bush administration and America, as it establishes that any agreement to emissions cuts in the future - assuming such occur - will include developing nations like China and India. This potentially assures that any climate change agreement the U.S. enters into in the future will not give such nations an unfair economic advantage.”
