Re: environmental policies
[ QUOTE ]
it seems an absolute disgrace to me that the current administration refuses to participate in meaningful international environmental policy talks. I'm no econ expert. can someone explain to me how we can use the, "it will hurt the economy excuse" to refuse to enter in agreements such as kyoto. aren't the future economic implications of sitting on our hands far more damaging? Clinton obviosly wanted to play ball during his presidency, and sen. mccain seems to be on the right side of this. Isn't bushes refusal to get involved absolutely ridiculous?

Your first mistake is that you consider Kyoto to be "meaningful" (at least, if by "meaningful" you mean "even somewhat effective" rather than "warm fuzzies").
