Bush 1, Greens 0

In the first place, one would have to question the sanity of any world leader who would honestly want to sacrifice world economic progress because they have bought into the flimsy evidence that man is the cause of global warming, if that is even a fact.

Mr. Bush's policy seems exactly right--play along with the catastrophists and provide a road map for control of CO2 emissions over the next 50 years much as he has handled border control in America--agree to a fence but stall the process.

Given that most Democrats are still unwilling to acknowledge that Al Gore misled them, even when confronted with the acual data and the people who say Mr. Gore has misquoted them, it is unlikely that they will admit he is wrong now just because Mr. Bush is making the headway Gore has never even tried to make.

No, for the Democrats, Al Gore is the only environmental ambassador, and they will go down with his sinking ship before admitting Bush was right.

You hit the nail on the head; Bush is in the mindset that if something has to be done; better done by him than a reckless democrat whose only reason for doing anything is to produce positive poll numbers for themselves. Bush is right, all emitters should be included in this plan. It was reported that the U.S. would have to pay 44% of the annual $50 billion bill towards global warming. While Japan 13%, Germany 7%, Britain just over 5% and other countries less than 5%. So this global warming is nothing more than an effort to weaken the U.S. in it's industrialized capacity and build up others.

The greatest source of global warming is legislative hot air.
