Crooked Judges at IAAF

[Tarlok]

But seriously, two points for you: many of us Americans would love to see Bush lose next year, though I doubt it's gonna happen. He lost me (not that he ever had me) when he "unsigned" the Kyoto protocol, and he has reinforced my displeasure by his repeated shockingly-blatant hostility toward environmental issues. Does that sound American to you? I assure you that it is.

I totally agree with you, both about Bush and his stance on the environment. However, as they say, even a stopped clock is right twice a day. And so Bush was with Kyoto. A flawed treaty that fails to accomplish its stated goals. It's downright stupid to punish countries that have already worked to improve (and in doing so, we've started to see the ozone hole decrease in size) while allowing developing countries free reign to do whatever the heck they want to the environment.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled topic. :D
