Perhaps I've missed something here. Has the President actually committed to any specific policy changes? As the Mars stories of last week showed, new information can come out at any time. What if new evidence comes out next year showing global warming to be more serious than previously thought? Can you imagine how that would play during the debates? I think Dubya's is smart to keep his options open.

It's not the policy, its the principle stupid. What's demoralizing to the base is they don't know for certain just where the President stands. I'm prepared to defend the President where he's right, but when he agrees with Al Gore on the environment, I'm drawing the line right then and there. The point is, if the President now implies Kyoto was OK, we might as well have elected Gore in the first place. Its not too much to expect the President to stand up to the enviro nazis and their junk science.

No, he hasn't. But this doesn't matter to the Chicken Littles.
