The company said it wanted compensation after 600 campaigners shut down all its 28 Esso petrol stations in the country for 14 hours last October, accusing Exxon of lobbying Washington to pullout of the Kyoto Protocol on climate change.

No kidding, talk about the mother of all PR stunts..

Clinton signs, then doesn't submit for ratification because he knows it would be laughed out of congress and the public would hang him for it.. But he still get's full credit from the greenies somehow?

Why aren't they calling him "coward" and spitting on him for this half hearted, public ditching of Koyoto?
