Patently false. Freon is multiples cheaper than the replacement chemicals.
In addition the science on the ozone whole is as well founded as the global warming crap.
But let me guess is Bush were to push new restrictions on ODC's you would be up in arms ? Right ?
Depends on what, exactly, they were.
But you seemed to have missed the main thrust of my post: that Bush has a credibility issue that Reagan never had, and him allowing this report to be released didn't help him any in that regard.
Ozone depletion and Global Warming are different in terms of scale. Whereas we can greatly reduce ODCs by restricting a few chemicals and providing better means of controlling and containing ODCs, this Global Warming business is aimed at regulating us out of are cars, restricting our ability to travel, giving more power to the government, and furthering our reduction to the status of serfs.
Finally, if Reagan had bent on many issues besides Ozone, I would eventually start to wonder whose side he was on, just as I do now with Bush. But Reagan *didn't* bend very often, and it never crossed my mind that he wasn't completely committed to the conservative agenda and America in general.
