Just one in a long list of reasons why Bush's re-election was right for America.

Just one in a long list of reasons why Bush's re-election was right for America. Agreed he's not falling for the "fairy tales" of global warming!

[goldstategop]

The enviro wackos want to saddle Americans with higher costs without showing they result in a significant improvement in environmental quality.

SOVEREIGNTY

My Donations of time and money have all ready been rewarded. Thank God for W! No time to waste on this junk science "global warming" Anyone who has paid ANY attention to the objective facts know the Sun Spot Cycles have a LOT more effect on global temperature then any emissions.

[ThinkDifferent]

I'm not convinced that global warming isn't occurring. I am convinced that even if it is, Kyoto would do nothing but cripple the US economy.

[america-rules]

global warming is occurring but the issue is what's causing it?

Is it natural?

[kipita]

Right! And the Kyoto treaty will create a UN managed CO2 trading market.

[flashbunny]

Think 'solar activity'.

Activity or lack of activity WRT sunspots has been linked to global temperatures since the 15th century. There has been no proven causation between man made activity and global warming.

[flashbunny]

I'm sure the UN will be able to run that without corruption....

"not convinced that global warming isn't occurring"



Anyone who has paid ANY attention to the objective facts know the Sun Spot Cycles have a LOT more effect on global temperature then any emissions. Global Warming may or may not be happening but it is NOT caused by man made emissions.

Notice how the liberal media skewed their report about the "300 scientists" and the rise of temperature in the Arctic regions. First of all, does anybody even live there. Second, 300 scientists do not constitute a consensus among all scientists. Where was the alternative opinion...lost in the cloud of liberal media bias, of course.

And of course, "enviro-whacko-ism" is just a front for anti-capitalism, aka, communism.

[BloodScarletMinnesota]

This nonsense has been going on since the Clinton administration's diversion from terror. Any further mention of Kyoto should be met with a third and final atomic drop... Expel Kerry to the hague where he can harangue against his lessers in international debate... Kerry's a mediocre moron... America really dodged a bullet on this one! Kerry's plan to fight global terror: " Name them and shame them in the global Community of Nations". What a less than worthless piece of whatever you can think of...

[Prime Choice]

President Bush is holding fast to his rejection of mandatory curbs on greenhouse gases...

And once again, thank God for President Bush's re-election!

[Bandaneira]

The Kyoto Protocol is a sham. Mr.Bush is making the right decision.

[k2blader]

Great!

[Moonman62]

It would never pass the senate anyway, and I don't think it was ever intended to. The sole purpose is giving the Left around the world something to perpetually whine about.

[Timm]

It's a long haul to 2008. You have to get in and start attacking Bush right away.

One of the best things Bush could do with this insane treaty is put it before the Senate. Make the Democrats in the Senate vote on it.

That, at least, will put a stop to this nonsense about "Bush rejecting" the treaty.

That thing is *never* going to get 2/3 of the Senate in the United States.

[The Loan Arranger]

Even if "greenhouse gases" are causing "global warming" (and I've seen no real proof that they are), why is that a bad thing? If the Earth gets warmer, don't more plants grow, creating more oxygen and eliminating more carbon dioxide? What do these so-called "experts" want, another ice age? And how do they know that this warming isn't part of a natural cycle? Also, the Kyoto Treaty is very biased against the United States, and lenient to other nations.
