"You stated that the Kyoto Global Warming Treaty was killed. Hmmm, if something is dead, does it still live on? What further steps has our leadership taken at the federal level to block implementation of the Kyoto Treaty across this nation? Bush did renounce the Kyoto Treaty and state he would not sign on. At the time I saluted him for doing so. Now, what good will that do us if the Kyoto Treaty is implemented across this nation anyway? Has Bush defunded a single NGO that you can name? Has he stopped them from drawing up legislation that the fifty states will rubber stamp and pass into law?"
Yes, Bush killed the Kyoto treaty.
But Bush is not going to trample all over states' rights in order to prevent misguided states from implementing their own **aspects** of the now-dead Kyoto treaty.
Bush stopped Kyoto at the national level, and I dare say stopped it at the Texas level while he was governor there, though with a Democratic legislature back then who knows if he was really able to stop every back door aspect of Kyoto.
If you want to prevent various aspects of Kyoto from being implemented at the state level, you'll have to recognize that such actions aren't going to be labeled as "Kyoto" anything, but rather that other stealth names will be given to such actions...and you'll have to get involved at a local level. Bush can't be everywhere for you.

I grow quite weary of folks who profess to know what's going on, not knowing what government funded NGOs are doing at the state level, but are willing to blame me for not stopping them.
I'll tell you what, you get me ten, twenty, fifty or one hundred million of the NGO dollars that they get from the federal government, and I'll be able to stop at least some of what you and I are paying them to do now.
My gathering an army of five thousand isn't going to compete with the government dollars that support these efforts, and I would think you could see that.
You state that Bush can't be everywhere. What I am finding out is that Bush can't be much of anywhere that interdicts leftist ideology these days.
Let me ask you this. Is the supplimental medication enhancement bill also a result of me sitting on my couch?
If you'd worry a little less about the wear on my couch and a lot more about the actions of a man who's causing the wear on the Oval Office's desk chair, I think this nation would be better off.
