bush "wins" on global warming (he continues to do nothing)

US holds out on Climate Change

Well, the G8 has convened and Bush stayed his course on climate change. Good work there, W. Insuring global warming, melting polar ice caps, killing off the polar bears....what a legacy. AP declared "U.S. Appears to Win Global Warming Debate." What a win.

Even his little poodle, Tony Blair seemed frustrated with the US:

Blair later said climate change could not be tackled without proper support from America, China, and India.

"If it is impossible to bring America into the consensus on climate change we will never ensure the huge emerging economies like China and India … are part of the dialogue," Blair said at the end of the G-8 summit. He added that Russia has agreed to make climate change a major priority when it takes over the G-8 presidency next year.

Tony, Tony, Tony, haven't you learned anything from your little friendship with Bush. He doesn't do consensus. So, don't expect climate change to be tackled by America....
