Well, at least historians will be able to tell future generations exactly which criminal administration was responsible for the destruction of the earth's climate and most species. The blame is pretty irrefutable and clear.
Good presentation of the cynical lying, misdirection and disinformation by Bushco. And I think every Repub on the Senate Committe last week voted against the Climate Stewardship Act that Boxer got through 11-8. Yeah, Repubs REALLY now accept the danger of global warming and are willing to help tackle it. How much press did that little "difference" in the parties receive from the MSM?
A Repub prezlidenterer in 2008 will pretty much be the end of the line for the earth's climate, if we aren't there already as a result of Bushco's criminal infamy.
100 years from now, this will be what Bush/Cheney will be remembered for. Bush as Truman? Not so much. We BushAmericans are principally responsible for the destruction of the planet's 11,000 year old climate.
Posted by euzoius at December 10, 2007 12:21 PMI thought Bushco was just being obstinate until I read "Shock Doctrine." I believe Bushco welcomes the chaos of global climate change to enable corporatist government, and thus actively supports manmade climate change.
Posted by Jim Shirk at December 10, 2007 12:32 PMI'm afraid I agree with Jim Shirk. It's almost as if the Bush corpocracy is bored with destroying mere nations, including our own, and wants to simply put an end to the entire earth as human habitat. They haven't worked out the details of ruling a dead planet from a bunker in Paraguay, but I'm sure it's at the top of their to-do list.

There is an emergency ascension robe with the presidential seal on it in his underwear drawer, right next to the "football".
Posted by TIKI AL at December 10, 2007 01:37 PMWell I think world-wide chaos along the earth's developed and populated coastal regions coupled with famines and unpredictable monster storms just might be a teensy bit bad for "bidness"; the pentagon already shelved a study that concluded unchecked warming will be deleterious to national security. Perhaps the MI Comples sees it as another "defense" money-maker.
Blocking all action on global warming is simply a short term, head-in-sand policy of oilmen, by oilmen, for oilmen, I respectfully submit to fellow LCers.
As to the rest of the nation's retarded, personal wealth obsessed CEO class, every professor out there declares they simply cannot think beyond two questers out. Global warming legislation is seen as just a cost increaser to them, not a necessary "survival of the economy" measure---therefore, a no-no.

You people have blind faith that rivals religious zealots. The least you could do is come up with some entertaining ad-hominens. It seems the shrill of your conspiracy theories overrides an such possibility, though.
Posted by Jay at December 10, 2007 04:56 PMI presume that the weightings of the study you cite were determined by letting some monkeys throw darts at a dart board. Whether this happened literally or fictitiously makes no difference.

Posted by Turkana at December 10, 2007 05:07 PMDear Leader is not content with destroying the regulatory agencies in the federal government. What's a little lead on toys for our children or poison in your pet's food (or YOUR food). He isn't content with taking America back to the Gilded Age of the 1890s.
The simple fact is that everything he touches turns to shit. And yet the Bush Cult still worships their god.
