If that's you mean, fine. If not, we mean different things.

You're focused on the rhetoric while I'm focused on the treaty. It's like you see the rhetoric as the objective. Rhetoric, seems to me, is a means to an end, not the end. Your take on this surprises me. So I guess you're right, we mean different things.

My memory is that Kyoto was rejected by the Senate by like 90 + votes. The treaty was terrible and has not been followed by those who signed it. The poop Bush got was for backing out of negotiations to create a new treaty. That is my memory.

Kyoto to me is one of the best examples of group think mania I have ever seen.
