Tony Blair Pulls the Plug on Kyoto at Clinton Summit

Virtually unreported from the Clinton Global Iniative meeting in New York, was Tony Blair virtually driving the final nails into the coffin of the (at best) ill-advised Kyoto Accord. Jim Pinkerton at Tech Central Station steps in where the MSM fears to tread.

Onstage with former president Bill Clinton at a midtown Manhattan hotel ballroom, British Prime Minister Tony Blair said he was going to speak with "brutal honesty" about Kyoto and global warming, and he did. And Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice had some blunt talk, too. Blair, a longtime supporter of the Kyoto treaty, further prefaced his remarks by noting, "My thinking has changed in the past three or four years." So what does he think now? "No country," he declared, "is going to cut its growth." That is, no country is going to allow the Kyoto treaty, or any other such global-warming treaty, to crimp -- some say cripple -- its economy.

Good riddance to bad rubbish! Theres more in this article worth taking a look at.

Time will tell, and this is one the Chief will be watching closely, along with many others from all sides of the political spectrum. On with the show!

E. J. Dionne is at it again. Having bad mouthed American democracy because it might result in a conservative Supreme Court, he now decides that the Senate and the American people have a right to know the future. Sen. Lindsey...

These people interviewed by ABC at the Astrodome must not have gotten the memo: ABC News producers probably didn't hear what they expected when they sent Dean Reynolds to the Houston Astrodome's parking lot to get reaction to President Bush's...

George W. Bush may have met his Waterloo with conservatives over the Katrina relief proposal. It's not just the proposal itself, but coupled with an unwillingness to reign in any government spending (such as on the highway bill), Bush is...
