But ironically skate will still continue to claim there's a rising glorious conservative movement worldwide because of his unca george and mentor chainsaw cheney. For skate, it will be 1908 next year, instead of 2008.
And meanwhile everybody world wide will continue to love our wars.

Great news.
Australia signed the Kyoto treaty in 1998 - what they have not done is ratify it. Their democratic vote has decided they now want to. Without Federal USA, India and China the thing is fairly pointless in any case. Their booming economy is based on mining and commodity exports to the Far East and that won't change much - "greening" machinery, power stations and cars is relatively easy to achieve, creates knowledge exports and actually saves money on oil imports.

The treaty will only bring economic ruin - period. It will not save the world - becasue the world in not in any danger. Liberal nonsense is about to destroy an entire continent. RIP.....you vote for libs, you die. Simple. Liberalisn is a mental illness and it is fatal. Just look at Europe - dead for decades now.

Tom,
On what basis do you say Europe is dead ?
And what countries do you consider being part of Europe ?

Participation in the Kyoto Protocol, where dark green indicates countries that have signed and ratified the treaty. As of 25 September 2006
Now color Australia green.
The rest of the world is not stagnating. Hippies should have been listened to when 10 million demonstrated worldwide before bush invaded. We have been right all along. The non-hippies have had their way. Led by George W Churchill.

None of those other countries were going to be damaged economically to the same extent as the U.S. It is a damn joke and just another tool to hurt the U.S. Thank Goodness we didn't ratify it...........

Markets are going to develop much further involving alternative energy and green strategies in business and technology. As a percent of GDP, we spend very little in this regard. Other countries are taking the lead now. Considering the weakness of the dollar unless we become competitive globally, we will be left behind. Petroism is going to make way for other energy sources, green house gas controls, and conservation. Even some large multi nationals and oil companies are beginning to take this seriously.
I would think the next president will have to do more than pay lip service.
Maybe 1/2 trillion spent here on these alternatives instead of on bloated defense budgets or unnecessary wars would be the wise option

Who is out of step? It appears a bit obvious.
Don't like it? Take the leadership role, re-evaluate it and consider a modified approach to moving toward the spirit of the protocol. To sit back and do nothing is typical.

News flash...where would you rather live? Well, not YOU, but then again.... 
The USA did not get to be the best nation in the world by marching to protocal.
Here is a question to all you dreamers out there - do you honestly think China is going to do anyting that doens't benefit China? They cannot even be trusted not to dip out children's Christmas toys in lead poison, let alone anytning else.
This GW crap is just that - crap. The world will do what it does and there is not thing one we can do about it. If you think the oceans will rise ( they have befroe, without out help) then I suggest you direct your energy into moving inland, lest you becme an example in evolution - thinnig of the heard.
