We'd be implementing the Kyoto Treaty on Global Warming, thus driving away even MORE jobs.

I'm tired of this spin. Gore could have NEVER implemented Kyoto - the Senate passed a resolution 95-0 that any global warming treaty containing certain provisions that were in Kyoto would never be ratified.

And I'm tired of intelligent people being naive.

President Clinton signed an Executive Order that FORCED every single federal agency to conduct every single internal and external action **as if** the Kyoto Treaty had been ratified. To win bids with federal agencies, companies were being compelled to show how they were in compliance with Kyoto's reduced CO2 requirements, for instance.

But hey, the Senate didn't ratify Kyoto so we were all OK, weren't we?!

Sheesh...
