Not signing the Kyoto treaty is one of the few things Bush did right. I'm kind of leaning his way on the European (nee International) Criminal Court.

And I never said Bush should of signed it as-is. He should have negotiated and worked with the other countries involved. Years had been spent on the Kyoto Treaty, and Bush just tossed those years aside. He didn't try to work with other countries on it, he just summarily dismissed the entire basic concept of such a treaty and left the negotiation table.Originally posted by Oerdin

That's a horrible foreign policy, which was repeated with the ICC.

Kyoto exempts nearly the entire world expect the West plus Japan & Korea. Latin America, Africa, and most of Asia get a free ride. All Kyoto will do is move manufacturing jobs from restricted countries to unrestricted countries without actually lessing the amount of pollution which is produced.Originally posted by alva

I don't know about you but if I'm going to destroy my country's highest paying jobs then I want to make sure it's actually helping to solve the pollution problem. Kyoto doesn't do that.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment

Top reasons to vote for Kerry:
1. DC needs a sudden influx of Iraqi restaurants. Viet Namese cuisine has gotten so boring. Can't wait to see what Kurdish cuisine is like.
2. Fahrenheit 9/11 likely to go out of circulation
3. Kerry-Sharon meetings
4. The reaction of the Lord God Putin
5. North Korea's reaction, whichever way they spin it.
6. Army and CIA having to put up or shut up, instead of griping about neo cons.
7. McCain in 2008
Top reasons to vote for Bush
1. Hilary in 2008
2. Make the French and German govts figure out how to live with 4 more years of Bush
3. More late night TV jokes about malapropisms
4. Did I forget to say, Hilary in 2008?"A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human. To become human, is what this individual person, has been created for.” Martin BuberComment

It varies by state. Even in the eastern time zone, some states close as early as 7PM EST, (i think one or two close at 6PM) while New York doesnt close till 9PM EST. Then youve got the central and western states.Originally posted by Atahualpa
