A Swedish minister even admitted as much recently when she said Kyoto is more about economic leveling than it is about climate control... You can't say such things! You are agreeing with what the dreaded Republicans have said since day one. Kyoto is a farce aimed at only penalizing the US and other "rich" nations.

What do you think the underlying agenda of environmentalists is? I think that's ridiculous, quite frankly, whatever their agenda is perceived to be, because we all know that the underlying agenda of the Republicans and the oil companies and the big corporations is to make sure that they make as many profits as possible with as little regulation as possible, the environment be dammed! So any motive at all you could throw at environmentalists just totally pales in comparison. Could you please post the comment by the Swedish minister so I can read it in its entirety and understand what is going on there? I have difficulty imagining any Kyoto supporter saying that, because actually it is about saving the planet from ecological destruction. Thanks!
