Obama Climate Envoy: Bush Approach Too Ambitious - Chris Horner - Planet Gore on National Review Online
Obama's OK, however, because he's asking for it (double entendre intended...careful what you wish for) if not pushing for it quite so hard as was demanded of Bush. So, sit back and enjoy the next, oh, 14 months, through the June 2010 meetings in Bonn, as Obama is given a pass on a new treaty. Depending on how much of a spine EU industry finds, that may be time enough for everyone to agree to a graceful way out of this embarrassing panic. If not, however, either the "international community" will turn on Obama for failing to push the U.S. into the Kyoto swamp, or the American public will, for having done so.

You see, these people want their government grant money so they discuss fluctuations in the climate and “spewing greenhouse gases” that is providing an “explosive warning.” These folks don’t want discussion of global warming to go away and they do want any discussion of global cooling to leave along with the skeptics.

Barack Hussein Obama and his “climate czar” will provide the money to bring us windmills and bubble cars in their effort to solve something they are clueless about.

....we know the greens and their media pals won't get too worked up about this, given that it wasn't really all that important to begin with. I mean, they hardly threw garlands at the guy.

One other explanation could be a raging double-standard, like that applied when, say, neither the Clinton-Gore nor Bush administrations asked the Senate to ratify the signed Kyoto Protocol (there is nothing in the Constitution or statute requiring such a request, by the way, but it is of course that gesture/matter of protocol on which the greens fixated at least when it came to one of those fellows, so we shall here, too). One was deeply caring and responsible and the other burned in effigy.
