Bush On Global Warming

Bush Calls for Global Emissions Goals – washingtonpost.com
President Bush today outlined what he described as a new initiative to combat global warming, calling on other nations to work with the United States in setting a long-term goal by the end of 2008 for reductions in greenhouse gases.

I’d like to slap Bush across the face right about now. Really hard.

How many years have people been pleading with Bush to take seriously the threat of global warming? Only now — now that he’s likely to go down in history as one of the worst presidents ever — does he start talking about finally doing something to address the problem. Now that his term as president is running out, now that he’s not quite so beholden to all his rich buddies in the oil business, now that the war in Iraq is going so badly — a war that’s all about oil and, by extension, global warming. NOW he wants to work with other nations to combat global warming.

I feel another really hard slap coming on.

Never mind that many other nations are YEARS AHEAD OF THE UNITED STATES on this issue. Has Bush never heard of a little thing called Kyoto Protocol??

Grrrr… Bush is such an asshole!

Slap! Slap! Slap!!
