It seems to me that Matt wasn't quite listening here, appears to be one comment taken out of context.

I dunno I am listening and have been since Rush started and he IS ripping Bush.

Rush even said Bush is now OFFICIALLY in writing confirming what the anti capitalist environmentalist whackos have been saying all along!

Bush needs to go in order to promote a conservative agenda.

Had I voted for Al Gore would he have tried to gain conservative support by giving in on so many conservative issues?

We have ripped McCain for much much, much, much less!

So, uh, let me try to understand this...Drudge is now reporting on Rush in real time? I guess when there's nothing else to talk about it's easy to bash Bush.

"LIMBAUGH RIPS BUSH WHITE HOUSE OVER GLOBAL WARMING 'FLIP-FLOP'

"It appears to be the hijacking of conservatism," Rush Limbaugh charged to the nation's largest radio audience Monday after President Bush apparently flip-flopped over Global Warming. "George W. Al Gore," Limbaugh slammed, just hours after the NEW YORK TIMES headlined "Climate Changing, U.S. Says in Report."

"The TIMES revealed: "In a stark shift for the Bush administration, the United States has sent a climate report to the United Nations detailing specific and far-reaching effects that it says global warming will inflict on the American environment. "In the report, the administration for the first time mostly blames human actions for recent global warming." The report goes on to predict: A "disruption of snow-fed water supplies, more stifling heat waves and the permanent disappearance of Rocky Mountain meadows and coastal marshes."

"What's left of the conservative agenda that has not been offered up to democrats?" questioned Limbaugh, who has been an outspoken critic of the Global Warming theory.

This is the most strident criticism of the Bush Administration I've heard from Limbaugh to date and I must say I agree with Rush 100%!!! I'm not sure who Dubyuh's been listening to, but he needs to realize the damage he's doing to the support of those who would walk over hot coals to see Dubyuh successfully enact his Agenda...not the RATS!!

The real problem here is that this isn't a flip-flop. W's administration has bought into "Global warming" since day one. When, during the whole Kyoto episode do you remember hearing anyone from the White House saying that global warming is a myth? Or that human activity isn't responsible for it? They never said anything like that. They've always maintained that human activity is causing a "greenhouse" effect. What they've always argued is that the popular greenie solutions for the "problem" aren't the ones to adopt. This report is just another example of them buying the Left's pseudoscience. I wish that I could say that this is out of character for this administration, but it's not.

(Of course, the problem with them not standing up to the environmentalist whackos is that they've given these crackpot theories a seal-of-approval from a Republican administration. In the long run, this "admission" from the Evil Republicans™ that humans are "destroying the earth" will make it nearly impossible to resist implementing the Left's regulatory agenda. Bush is arguing that there is nothing that can be done about the "problem" through regulation; that adaptation to a changing climate is all that we can do. But the Left will counter with the usual "But we've got to do something!" or "But what about the children?" or whichever of their usual canards they think will work. They will eventually get what they wanted under Kyoto and our economy will suffer; all because of W's long standing refusal to fight this myth.)

George W. Bush should remember three things:

1) Defend the Second Amendment

2) Don't be Shanghaied by the fradulent Global Warming Nonsense

3) No new or higher taxes

4) Protect the U.S. with a strong military

5) Defend our borders against illegal invaders

6) Ignore EVERYTHING that idiot father of his tells him.

If George W. Bush neglects any of the above, he will not succeed in a re-election bid as he will have blown away his base of support. The liberal left will never accept or support him, and the last election was a very close one.

It would appear George Jr. is slowly allowing the miasmas of the Potomac to alter his previous conservative creditials, jepordizing a second election bid.

Personally, I will NEVER vote for a liberal Republican, even if the alterantive is a liberal Democrat. I have had it with electing so-called conservative Republicans to office, only to have them turn into empty-headed liberals in an attempt to "widen their base", somethijng a liberal Democrat NEVER does when one of THEM gets into office.

Most of the people in the US believe global warming is real. Bush's stance isn't a radical one.

Sonet of President Bush,
""Drill, drill, drill, drill?
No, take a pill, pill, pill;
Oil everywhere, betrayal the good-where.
Good for me.""

I wish my part of the globe would warm sometime soon! We have been 5 to 15 degrees cooler, all this year, here in the upper peninsula of Michigan. I am about to go outside with an aerosol can in each hand and start spraying towards the ozone.

Bush and the GOP do it again. How many times do tehy have to do this befoe you folks stop justifying it simply because it's being done byy Republicans?

You know that if Klntoon did the same things Bush is doing, FR would be burning with outrage at our socialist president. You know that if a Dimmycra Congress were doing what the GOP Congress is doing, you'd all be screaming that this is why we need to change control.

Can you say "double standard"? Sure, I knew you could.

Even when I disagree with Rush I am always impressed with his homework. Not this time. He took the Drudge report and ran with it without any research, and Drudge simply took the NYT article at face value. Shame on Drudge. Rush is another matter, I am very disappointed in him.

Here's the body of the item from Drudge:

LIMBAUGH RIPS BUSH WHITE HOUSE OVER GLOBAL WARMING 'FLIP-FLOP'

"It appears to be the hijacking of conservatism," Rush Limbaugh charged to the nation's largest radio audience Monday after President Bush apparently flip-flopped over Global Warming.

"George W. Al Gore, anyone?" Limbaugh slammed, just hours after the NEW YORK TIMES headlined "Climate Changing, U.S. Says in Report."

The TIMES revealed: "In a stark shift for the Bush administration, the United States has sent a climate report to the United Nations detailing specific and far-reaching effects that it says global warming will inflict on the American environment.

"In the report, the administration for the first time mostly blames human actions for recent global warming."

The report goes on to predict: A "disruption of snow-fed water supplies, more stifling heat waves and the permanent disappearance of Rocky Mountain meadows and coastal marshes."

"What's left of the conservative agenda that has not been offered up to democrats?" questioned Limbaugh, who has been an outspoken critic of the Global Warming theory.

Limbaugh explained: "I have not jumped across this divide, my friends. I thought about this last night when I became aware [of the NEW YORK TIMES story], and I thought what am I going to have to do? Am I going to have to go on the radio tomorrow and say , 'folks, guess what? I have been wrong about global warming. I've been wrong about it, the president says it is happening, human beings are causing it. I've been wrong.' I just can't because I don't think I am. I -- too many scientists out there whom I implicitly trust who have proven to me that these predictions are basically apocalyptic doom and gloom based on raw emotion. Even the global warming advocates to this day will not tell you it is definitively happening."

More global "warming" anecdotal stuff:

I just got back from a weekend at my summer house up in the Catskill Mts. in NY. Driving up through Yonkers on the Sprain Brook Pkwy, you notice how lush and green everything is. On the Taconic Pkwy, you see nothing but green stretching for miles, and it's all the same crossing the Hudson into the beautiful, lush mountains.

I couldn't recall any factory, or industry, or corporate monstrosity blighting the countryside. Don't recall any pollution or foul air either- everyone seemed to be driving smart, sensible cars and- yes- SUVs. Didn't see much evidence of our supposed "terrible" drought, either, a typical May rain has left our lovely watersheds at 85% capacity.

Yet all this natural beauty occurs within one of the most densely populated and industrialized areas on earth. The visual evidence of mankind's footprint on this environment is rather slight, and the thought that we're causing catastrophic weather change seems laughable.

Oh, and there was still some lingering snow on the slopes of Windham Mountain. In June. A first, according to the locals.

Maybe Rush has seen the Savage rating's going up by bashing the Bush Adm. But Savage has alway's done it so it sound's more consistant then Rush. You can not argue the belief that Bush is a conservative then take it back.
