Gore Slams Bush for Refusing Global Climate Report

[MJY1288]

If you knew your facts you would know that X42 already signed the Kyoto treaty just before he left in disgrace. The U.S. Senate voted 96 or 98 to 0 not to ratify the treaty. All this crap over Global warming is nothing but politics, and piss poor politics at that. It's a desperate attempt by the left to paint this president as someone who supports Kyoto in order to take away the weak support he has from the far right.

Keep listening to the NYT's and Rush they need your support, I will continue to support the best president since Ronald Reagan becuase both the NYT's and Rush Limbaugh have an agenda, The NYT's agenda is to promote the left and Rush Limbaugh needs a scandal for ratings and the almighty dollar.

Regardless, it was another flip-flop by Bush, one of almost a dozen. The whole episode was Clintonesque. Bush -- in a political sense -- is no different than Clinton. Stealing your opponent's ideas and sell out the core beliefs that were campaigned on.

Your response is what I expected. But I have absolutely no interest in trying to change your mind.

Recently, there was a poll out that indicated that the general populace did not like Al Bore. It also stated that many in the Dim party, congressmen included, did not like him.

Gore Slams Bush for Refusing Global Climate Report Sat Jun 8

He did? I am so shocked to hear this from drain the river for a photo op Soreloserman!

[DemoSmear]

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I meant which Al Bore? Alphaman, Enviroman, InternetGore, or LoveStoryGore?

[Paul Atreides]

I don't know if you're old enough to remember this but, maybe we should start calling him Sybil.

I for one don't want Gore to shut up. I think he may be more effective at motivating the conservative base than any Republican. Keep talking, Al.

"Tell me what exactly is it that you are angry about?"

The inclusion in the report that humans are causing global warming. Also the medias bias, but then we all know what to expect from them.

I should have said "the inclusion in the report that humans are causing global warming as if it were fact."

Exactly what did the report say?

"It's a desperate attempt by the left to paint this president as someone who supports Kyoto in order to take away the weak support he has from the far right."

Actually its worse than that. They will attempt to say that Bush realizes that humans cause Global warming but refuses to do anything about it.

I am not anti Bush as so many here seem to think. I do think this was a poor political move but I will place most of the blame with Christine Todd Whitman and whoever allowed these ridiculous claims to be included in the report.

The Bush administration has put "lobbyists for the polluters in charge of policies" and put "the hungriest fox they could find" to guard government henhouses, Gore said

This from a man who left out a few details of the Airport Security Report and collected a half million for it ...

Keep talking Al

"Exactly what did the report say?"

It said alot of things as I think you know. Most of it will be ignored by the media and most people will only know what the media tells them.

I think the worst line was how "Rocky Mountain meadows and coastal marshes will disappear", as if this is a forgone conclusion. Little sound bites like that are what the media and the Democrats will focus on.

You do realize that the Senate must ratify the Kyoto treaty don't you? Bush has not offered even the slightest hint that he will ask the senate to do so. I don't know what the man can do. Why not encourage him to stick to his guns rather than project future guilt on to him? That the democrats and the media will use this report is a given. They always do but that does NOT MEAN that they are telling the truth. If Bush looks at this forum and sees he is being crucified by his own as much as the Libs, he will, and rightly so, wonder why he should stand tough since no matter what he does, it is always too much or too little with those that he thought he could count on to watch his back.

There was a time when freepers went after the media knowing that 9 times out of 10 they had spun the story into a major negative when it comes to conservatives or Republicans. There was a time when freepers would find the facts and use them to rebut the media spin and get the message out. However; for the past 6 months with a very large contingent on this forum every media source, no matter which one, is used verbatim, to yell "I TOLD YOU SO, BUSH IS A SELL-OUT." it is realty quite remarkable.

I don't think Bush is a sell out. He is acting pretty much the way he said he would during the campaign. He is not as conservative as some would like, but he's far better than Gore. See my post #71. Good night.

There was Oxy, all set to make a bundle trading Kyoto carbon credits through the World Bank if only AlGore became President. Now ol Al is pissed at George because of his underperforming investments.

Crook.

Correct. Whitless has been marginalized over at EPA ever since the arsenic fiasco. She wants to be taken seriously, so she does this to get a little press.

Stupid.

[patriciaruth]

I suppose you will still think its all a big joke when the US signs the Kyoto treaty or something similar?

I heard that the original Kyoto treaty was altered, and now states that the levels set are just "goals" for countries to try and meet, and it is not binding on anyone with any penalties if they don't meet the goals.

Snicker, that is why Japan signed it last year. Japan insisted on the changes. It is worthless paper now, and that is why all the countries whose politicians need to placate their left wings are signing lately. And of course, they are counting on the U.S. not to sign it, so it won't matter if they do.

Bush will never sign it. Maybe some other elected President of the U.S. will, but not President Bush.
