Inept No More! Bush Proposes Greenhouse Gas Plan
So Bush finally goes green, eh?
Earlier today, in a statement that is being met with resounding cheers by sentient beings around the globe (lean out the window, you’ll hear them no doubt) the evil munchkin (and believe me, this is a nonpartisan statement as I ally myself not with either party) stated, “I will take a look at establishing a committee to study the feasibility of working on some sort of framework to present toward the end of the year regarding possible future partial emissions reductions of some greenhouse gases in certain parts of the world.”
A pretty powerful statement, no?
Here’s Bloomberg’s take on the epic pronouncement.
From that article:
“The White House is just trying to hide the fact that the president is completely isolated among the G-8 leaders by calling vaguely for some agreement next year, right before he leaves office,” Philip Clapp, president of the National Environmental Trust, said in a statement.
National Wildlife Federation President Larry Schweiger called the plan “is an attempt to muddy the waters for the next president.”
Geez, no love for the president, eh guys? Can’t you see that he has finally seen the light and is going to try to become the Green President as a way to cover up for that little lapse in judgement over in the Middle East? Mark my words - history will show George W. Bush as the man who really and truly made the boldest steps to save the planet.
The Song o’ the Day is a bit of a stretch. I really had to scour my collection for a tie-in, however tangential. That said, I present to you Harry Belafonte, Live at Carnegie Hall, singing, “Red Rosy Bush.” [audio:bush.mp3]
