I can't believe you think his concerns are noble.

His concern is for all those big factories that are going to line his
pockets (or donate to his next campaign, or whatever) when he allows them to
spew carbon dioxide in copious amounts.

Washington State power companies are currently charging us out the yahoos
and telling us to conserve so they can sell our power to California. But
wait! Big businesses are getting power rate cuts when they conserve! But not
us little people, sorry.

And as far as Big Oil is concerned...ever here of a guy named Mark Rich -
the Big Oil tycoon who purchased a pardon?! Democrats are such
"hippie-cricks". (Anyone remember where that's from?) They complain about
and try to sue tobacco companies and then offer homeless people cigarettes
if they vote - so much for being against smoking and for the homeless!

Bill, all politicians are hypocrites.

I also disagree with Miss Whitman's statement that global warming is a "real
phenomena." There are many studies that say it is not. IMO, it's a tool of
environmental extremists to punish prosperity and capitalism in this
country.

Really? Which studies? Please be specific.

Third-world countries produce far more pollution than the entire
U.S. does and no one targets them.

How do you suggest we control their emissions? Invade?
