Bush and his Administration will cave when pressured or booed, that's been the problem since 2001. It looked like he was starting to stand up this year, but it was too good to last

“Global warming” hoax BUMP!
(Remember, it is a mistake to believe ANYTHING published by AFP.)
Bush passed the buck on this one. Not surprised.
After repeated verbal lashings, Dobriansky again took the microphone and said that Washington would "go forward and join consensus," to the cheers of the conference.
The United States is changing its stated policies based on some boos and jeers from a crowd?
I wish we could have sent a representative with some spine.
Why even give them anything, this is President Bush’s problem. When he has victory he gives part or all of it away because. He could have been a much better President if not for this we have to compromise b.s.
The explosion of greenhouse emissions in China, India and other developing countries potentially could negate cutbacks in the developed world.”

We’ll end up footing the bill, as we always do.
Gutless leaders.
He did not back down at all, he simply told them deal with it when he is not President anymore. In fact all his years in office he never submitted to any treaty regarding global warming.
Yep — Bush has been courageous on WoT but that’s it for some reason. On other issues he has been a political coward OR has bought into the koolaid - take your pick.
Bush the Nutty Globalist backs down again.
Hopefully the next President will have more pro-America values
Excuse me .. I didn’t see BUSH at the conference - and it’s the liberal state dept who has caved .. not Bush.
It’s not the first time this state dept has gone contrary to the President’s stated policy.
Has everybody had enough of Condi’s policies now ..??
If one of the Democrats or Rudy, Romney, Huckabee, or McCain is elected President, we'll have a global suicide pact in no time.
You would think at least one person could go to that conference and challenge the very notion of man-made global warming and the premise itself that we need to do anything at all. Where is the antidote to Al Gore? Where is this person?
Michael Crichton has been vocal, but he obviously doesn’t get the same amount of press.
I don’t agree on the WoT. When history is written and Iran and AQ have the bomb, it will be said that Bush caved there too. It’s happening before our eyes and there is precious little we can do about it.
Did anybody even READ the article? It has got JACK to do with Bush and basically the U.S. committed to NOTHING.
Good Lord, take your conspiratorial, nonsensical rantings back to DU where they belong.
The brainpower and reading comprehension on this forum is all but gone. It would be laughable if it weren’t so freakin sad.
