Comments on: Bush Unveils Strategy On Global Warming

President Urges Voluntary Cuts Of Greenhouse Gas Emissions

[tbweb]

If you look at recent Bush administration "about faces" on issues like Dufar, Aids, Iraq, Talking to Iran, Global Warming, Immigration Veto threats and some others, it shows an effort to get in touch with the American people, it shows an effort to show he is finally listening. A lot of damage has been done, many are hurting, but President Bush does have over a year and half left in Office to somewhat redeem himself, all he has to do is be sincere, show he really means it, get back and stay in touch with what America is really about. It will take a while for everyone to calm down and trust this new direction, but its never too late to say you're sorry in your own way, its never to late to see the error of your ways and reverse course and there is plenty of time for President Bush to make a small "Come Back" and those who won't like it are probably the same ones who never liked him in the first place. All religions are based in hope for a better future, here and in the after life, for without hope, one need not wait until death to be in Hell.

"The only people who stil support him are religious fanatics and other extremist wing-nuts." That may be true but lets be fair, you could also say that those who support the Democratic front runners are Socialist loving left wing-nuts. So who does leave as a good choice for President in 2008?

I clearly remember Bush's 1st inaugural speech when he preached about cleaner fuels and more efficient cars and trucks, blah, blah, blah. I said to myself, yeah right, I'll keep my fingers crossed, but I didn't believe a word he said. That was about 6 years ago. Now all of the sudden he cares, yeah, I'll keep my fingers crossed.

"Bush Calls For Global Emissions Pact"

Why do I want to question the sincerity of this comment?

Could it be that Bush and Big Oil sleep together?

Could it be that Bush likely has $M invested in corn methanol and is planning on subsidizing growers and producers of corn methanol? Why, if there is going to be such a need for corn methanol, do they need to be subsidized? If more farm land is converted from food agricultural to corn methanol, what are/is the govt. planning to do to meet the nutritional needs of the citizens of this country (import from Mexico)?

Or Maybe I just don't trust and believe anything GWB says these days?

Sounds like delaying tactics to me.

Bu$h, IMO, thinks the Rapture is going to happen and end any worries about global warming and any other thing he phucked up.

[sparkcolo]

What an idiot! There is already a global emissions pact. It's called the Kyoto treaty, but he was too pig-headed and pulled out of it way back in 2001. Now he's just trying to redeem the fastly fading shred of dignity that remains in his presidency.

Corn ethanol has a return of 1.3 energy units for every 1 energy unit sued to produce corn ethanol.

This is HORRIBLE. We need a higher yield. Sawgrass is expected to provide about a 10 to 1 yield when the development is finished.

Corn ethanol MUST be a bridge to higher yielding ethanol processes. It is NOT the answer.

Bush said that using less fossil fuels would be bad for our economy. Germany has created 175,000 new clean high paying jobs by promoting renewable energy in their country. I would say that is GOOD for the countries economy not bad. Why do people even listen to this guy?!

[micma-2009]

Bush is, by far, the worst President in U.S. history.

He's a disaster for this country and the world.

The only people who stil support him are religious fanatics and other extremist wing-nuts.

[clestes-2009]

The United States takes this issue seriously," Mr. Bush said"

What a joke. Up until 2 years before katrina wiped out New Orleans, dubya thought climate change was a hoax. He still does. He is only tyring to avoid looking like the miserable coward he is. He won't stand up to the oil industry and force them to comply to emission controls. "Voluntary reductions" are his mantra.

The oil companines are making record profits and a lot of that money is going into the Bush family. He won't do anything to support reducing greenhouse gases other than the bare minimum to avoid looking like the dummy he already looks like.

[dan9111]

It's more like a global suicide pact. I don't tell Bush what car to drive. It's none of my business.

So why, Mr. Bush, condone violence against the evil SUV owners? The free market is solving this problem. It is our only hope, as hybrid carmakers are proving. The liberal solution is insane, and Bush's is more insane. Both assume the consumer is stupid. Quite the opposite, air quality is more important to us than them. We don't get a big fat subsidy for it.

[afmca]

Just like Bush ... repeat the lie enough and his Kool-Aid drinkers will chug it down. Why is the world would he believe anyone would believe he is serious about global warming and the environment? If he is .. GO TO THE MEETING ALREADY SCHEDULED !!! He wants create an offshoot group so that he can stop all momentum. Europe and the rest of the world are not as stupid as your lemming followers to fall for this trap.

[iceman_1960]

Bush is all over the feel-good issues right now:

AIDS, Sudan, Global Warming...

Sorry, Mr. Rove. That won't work.

Try again.

[j-whitman]

Bush said, "The US is taking the lead" ???? -- It seems to me, the EU took the lead & Bush didn't want to play.

In the mean time, the demand for corn oil has driven up food costs around the world & severly hurts Americans.... Corn Ethanol, cost more to refine & you pay more & will increase fuel consumption.
