There is no reason to deny that hydrocarbons are released into the atmosphere by the fruits of the industrial revolution.

As well as by rotting fruit.

We need to make this simple and get the debate off the turf and target of the Left, which is precisely the industrial revolution.

I guess I disagree concerning tactics. Conservatives just look silly claiming the earth isn't warming or that cars don't release hydrocarbons.

You are correct that the Left's target is the industrial revolution. Why not put that right upfront and let people know that global warming is an effort by extreme environmentalists and liberals to dismantle chunks of our economy for no good reason?

And I see no reason why President Bush shouldn't call out the Europeans for getting Clinton into a sucker deal with Kyoto. By using 1990 as the benchmark date the Europeans put the compliance burden on the US because most of our improvement on C02 came before 1990 and most of theirs came after. Then the Europeans struck a deal with the third world mostly to exempt them from compliance if they'd back the European plan to stick it to North America and Japan. Why not expose this rotton nonsense for what it is instead of arguing science issues?
