George W
or
Ted Kennedy, Jesse Jackson and Hillary Clinton combined?
It's a simple question, even you should be able to answer it.
This report is not a policy document, but is bureaucratic exercise required by the Rio treaty where our bureaucracy reports to the UN bureaucracy on global warming. This report supports Bush's present policy, rejects the Kyoto Protocal and reiterates that the science has not been able to tell us if the warming is due primarily to man-made versus natural causes, if the warming is a problem at all or what the magnitude of that problem might be. There is no flip-flop.
The Times piece is a hit-piece spinning the report as some kind of admission the left has been correct on global warming, which it is not, in the hopes of changing policy.
I think Rush spent Sunday on the golf course and relied completely on the Times story for his prep. But it makes good radio - spawned one column today already and who knows how many FR threads.
There will always be enough voters that will take this approach. Remember the "Reagan Revolution?" Open up an Almanac and check out the "Budget." Look at where it was when Reagan was elected and look where it is now.
How many more "victories" can conservatives afford?
How absurd. The man is defending conservatism, nothing more nothing kless (he did it when Daddy Bush was there too didn't he? Or did you forget?
O'reilly hasn't got squat to do with it. Your silly red herrings only make you look foolish.
When the Democrats were in power, the Republicans were very effective obstuctionists for a while. Unfortunately asn stupidly they boasted about how weak-willed Bill the Waffler was. Then he grew some stones and whipped the Congress over the next few years.
Now we have a Republican in the White House who is advancing the Democratic agenda faster than the Dems did and those of us tha tdon't like it get yelled at for being disloyal!
I think I like it better the other way, the Democrats taking credit for the Republican's accomplishments instead of the Republicans enacting the Democratic agenda.
Me vote Republican? Why?
Huh? No he hasn't. Bush's base is solid and behind him. Many, many of us are truly grateful he's our president.
As for Rush...I caught his show today for the first time in a long while...and he was so flat, boring and self serving I could only bear the first hour.
TLB's right on target insight: The rat plan is to depress turnout by rightist voters, by inducing apathy through disillusion. Don't get hooked by their net.

It is obvious this is the Rat goal and the KKKKKK Klassless Klowns are doing their job to depress conservatives.
Ignore them and SEND THE DEMOCRATS PACKING IN NOVEMBER!
Sorry, but it is Drudge's irresponsible headlines and his obvious trumping of Rush to support his own lack of reporting skills that makes them both look foolish. Funny, seems Bush supports are called bots. Seems like we have a new bot in town. Rushbots.
Sorry to say but I am dissapointed (again) with GWB. If the story is wrong he could have sent someone out to contradict it. He has not done that.
"We shall make no distinction between the terrorists and those who harbor them"--who said that????
"Greenhouse gases are accumulating in the Earth's atmosphere as a result of human activities, causing global mean surface air temperatures and subsurface ocean temperatures to rise," the administration said in its report.
"The changes observed over the last several decades are likely mostly due to human activities, but we cannot rule out that some significant part of these changes is also a reflection of natural variability," the report says.
"Human-induced warming and associated sea level rises are expected to continue through the 21st century," it says. "Secondary effects...include increases in rainfall rates and increased susceptibility of semi-arid regions to drought."
GOOD one ;)
