Is this evidence that as President, McCain will only surround himself with yes-men? Or will he surround himself with people who can give real input into his areas of weakness? If he accepts AGW, is it because he has shut off input from those who don't agree with what he already thinks?
His temper and ego already tell us that he will surround himself with yes-men.
I remember pollution credits being touted in the early '90s as the eventual solution to global warming. The problem is that people don't care about pollution, they care about energy. What a nice sounding global cap on pollution really comes to is a communist takeover of the global fuel market. If such a thing can happen, it will mean a new global government will rule over the planet with control over energy trade. If you want to generate your own fuel for use inside your own country, the new global government will either invade to stop you, or blockade you if you have a good enough military.
This is why senators in general, make lousy presidents.
He has said he will bring in Warren Buffett to head a commission on reforming government. He said he'd work with Harry Reid to get SS Reform (and give all he "credit" to Dems. To most Dem questions, it is McCain who seems to be saying "Yes." Best watch your wallet, no matter who is elected.
If he accepts AGW, is it because he has shut off input from those who don't agree with what he already thinks?
Well... he sent Lindsay Graham out to call everyone bigots for not agreeing with his Amnesty plan. That should give us all a clue. I sure haven't seen him with Inhofe at his side.
Good point. And I would have to vote "yes".
I would surmise that McCain is incapable of admitting he's made a mistake. His ego is one of the biggest burdens he'll have to bear. Not to mention the country...
