For what has seemed like an eternity, the enviro-whackos have been jumping up and down screaming about how the Bush Administration is doing nothing about global warming. If only he would sign the much-vaunted Kyoto protocol, that would make everything better, we're told. But to this day, George Bush has refused to go along with it.
Democrats, including The Poodle and Bill Clinton have pushed the Kyoto agreement. Liberals talk about how our standing in the world is suffering because we won't go along with it. After all, most other countries, including England, have signed it.
Just why do you think so much of the world wants the U.S. to sign the Kyoto treaty? Because it would weaken the United States, that's why. Remember, a recent European poll showed that 58% of Europeans wanted to see the United States weakened economically and militarily worldwide. So .. on the one hand the world seems to want a weaker United States .. and that same world wants the U.S. to sign Kyoto. Duhhhhhh. Connect the dots people!
Simply put, if the United States were to sign that agreement, it would destroy our economy. China and India weren't part of the agreement...something you don't always hear about when the media talks about Kyoto. We're hooked on oil from the Middle East, which is a national security problem and an economic security problem.

China and other developing countries were exempt because they were not the main contributors to the greenhouse gas emissions during the industrialization period that has caused climate change. We can revise that evaluation to reflect China’s growing pollution problems but they are johnny-come-latelys to the industrialization world and they have a huge population to support so we have to be sensible about the issue.

Chill Jim, you and DEEP BLUE really should take a brake, because both are of you are really stressed out. China was exempted, because they knew from day on , that the Chinese government is not stupid enough slow down, damage, destroy, or in anyway negatively impact their economy, something our own people never consider. Just ask LIBERAL Clinton, or MUSLIM Obama they will tell you they would sale out the American economy in a heart beat.

I like your avatar!.
I also agree with it!
China has the power to be exempt from about anything they don't care to be included in.
I believe soon that they will be the leading power and not just economically.

Because in the last 7 years we have borrowed so much money from China, that they could burry our economy if they called in the debt. So what China wants, China gets.

The Kyoto Protocol either is unnecessary or doesn't go far enough. We could have a nice scientific discussion about this but unfortunately the politicians screwed it all up.
Global Warming is real by a majority in the IPCC. Get my point?

The next time you put out a question like this, TAKE OUT THE GOD DAMNED WORD LIBERAL.
Jesus Christ, God Almighty, can't you people stop with the leading crap and come out with an honest question for once in your sorry lives?
I sure as hell hope so.
Peace

Through political chicanery and some hanky-panky, during
the early to late nineties, we have sold ourselves to China.
What can they get from participating in "Accords" that they
do not already have or can easily get.

I don't know, it might be that the Liberals didn't think it was right to limit Communist China's economy with the stupid regs they wanted to sattle the US with.
