He can say that again. India and China, which are exempt from Kyoto's emissions cuts, have no plans to submit to those mandates any time soon, though China is the world's second-largest emitter of greenhouse gases. The U.S. has also consistently rejected Kyoto. This has been true throughout the Bush years, but it was equally so during the Clinton ones. In 1997, the U.S. Senate adopted the Byrd-Hagel Resolution by 95-0, urging the Clinton Administration not to sign any climate-change protocol that "would result in serious harm to the economy." In 1998 Al Gore signed the Protocol. Yet President Clinton, who was in Montreal yesterday to scold the Bush Administration for its inaction, never submitted it to the Senate.
As Rush pointed out yesterday, when he said that the only reason Clintoooon is talking up the "Kyoto treaty" right now, is the fact that he is bucking for the Socialist's "Nobel Peace Prize" in order to rehabilitate his sordid legacy.
It is as Rush said, noone gets that "prize" unless he bashes America --- especially when he's on foreign soil. We all know that's how much lower Carter had to be willing to sink to get his.
These two feminized, self-focused males will go down into the dustbid of history where they belong --- along with all the rest of the dime-a-dozen, vacuous "beautiful people" and cynical opportunists who only applaud and hand out "prizes" to each other.
They have their reward.
