"the Arctic, a region whose potential for oil, gas, and mineral exploitation is for the first time being unlocked by a historic ice melt driven by climate change."

BS.

..... unlocked by a historic ice melt driven by climate change.

Lazy author! Didn't get the memo that the Artic ice is now at 1970 levels.

There...that's more entertaining. And just as factual.

President Bush confuses me on the Law of the Sea Treaty. He is pro American sovereignty in many ways and yet not so here. I would like to hear his rationale for backing the resurrection of this treaty that Reagan said “NO!” to.

Good Grief!

Isn't there any mechanism for this poor, beaten-down,emasculated remnant to be sent home to TX early before he does any more of obambi’s bidding?

All this marxist crap he has been spewing out.....no wonder he can't find time to pardon a couple of rail-roaded American border agents!

I try to be an optimist, but I’m getting the feeling America as we know it is truly screwed.

Arctic issues, she said, need to be handled with "a collective approach."

That "collective" is being pushed a lot lately.

Lock and load FRiends...

Great, so we will be able to lay claim to more resources that we won’t allow ourselves to produce.

Why is this a good thing? If we let Russia claim them at least they would be produced and put on the global market.

I offer up this thread as still another reason why people, who consistently and constantly proclaim that within a short period of time we are going to wish we had Bush back, are dead flat out incredibly wrong.

Bush is a misguided New World Order wonk, just like his dad.

If the open borders didn’t seem like a clue to you all, you just weren’t tuned in.

Here bush fronts for the LOST treaty, the number one desire of the United Nations, an assured income stream from which to finance it’s real agenda.

This is the last thing a Conservative would advocate.

Is Freedom our desire as a sovereign nation, or do we wish to be lead by a ring in the nose by the United Nations? Touch call huh... evidently for Senior Buuuuuush, esta es.

Bush gives the US a final “screw you” before leaving office to fret over his sick legacy.

He was as big a fraud as is Obama. Yep, the torch was passed alright, the torch that burns the US dream to the ground.
