Nonsense. If we're talking politics over substance, then this is going to produce a big win for Bush.

Uh-huh. Yeah, I can't wait to see the puff pieces in the NYT and LAT bringing the news to the masses about Bush being "pro-environment". When's the 3 minute segment on "NBC Nightly News" airing that hypes the new and improved "Mr. Environment", George W. Bush? When can I expect to see Peter Jennings smiling and piling on the positive adjectives in describing this report and the Admin. reaction?

Wake up. The media will highlight TWO THINGS AND ONLY TWO THINGS: 1. The very existence of this report will be described as a "back-flip" on the credibility of "global warming" by the Bush team; and 2. the fact that the report also says (no, I haven't read it, and no, I'm not going to read it since I HATE government junk science BS) the Admin. won't change policies will be trumpeted as further proof that Bush is in the back pocket of "polluting big business".

No 30 second campaign ads, or bleatings from the conservative press ghetto is going to change those perceptions.

Face it, this is a loss.

Most people don't watch the evening news. They'll hear second hand how Bush seems more friendly to the environment. They'll eat it up. Face it, this is a loss

Baloney. Like when Nixon went to China.
