About supporting Kyoto? No, I'm not kidding you. Enron was a major backer of Kyoto, both with funds as well as lobbying efforts. The Kyoto Protocol would have almost banned coal (Enron's chief competition to their natural gas operations) as well as created a new market for trading pollution credits (which Enron wanted to seize with its Trading Unit).

You'll find out, after the dust settles, that it was Clinton who called Ken Lay to get help breaking a logjam related to Kyoto (and Lay delivered).

I thought that you knew all of this already, however.

Don't worry, most Democrats in Congress don't know all of this, either...

But they will soon enough!

And you are saying that Enron hired Ralph Reed just to get the Christian Coalition to not support Kyoto?

You must be getting loony, perhaps after learning that your clients are outsourcing all their new IT projects to India or Russia.
