On “global warming,” Obama becomes Bush 44
By D.J. McGuire | Tuesday, May 31st, 2011 | International, Policy, Politics
Remember the preening the Democrats did (including the current president) when George W. Bush “unsigned” the Kyoto Agreement on “greenhouse gases”? Recall how Barack Obama insisted “climate change” as akin to terrorism as a threat?
Well, never mind (Agence France Presse via Syndey Morning Herald; h/ts to WUWT and SDA):
At last Thursday’s G8 dinner the US President, Barack Obama, confirmed Washington would not join an updated Kyoto Protocol . . .
What was the president’s full name again? Barack Who’s-same Obama, yes?

I think you mean Obushma. Obama I mean Obushma will run as Mr Sarah Palin in 2012. What does he care what new fraud to give to the voters?
This has got to be driving moonbats crazy (sorry for the redundancy). Mr. Hope and Change is Mr. More of the Same regarding our foreign policy – the very thing that was riling liberals up the previous 8 years. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, just that there is a sense of irony here.
I know I don’t have to say this, but this instance certainly isn’t the first time President Obama has embraced the policies of Bush 44…
One of my favorite activities is to point out to liberals the many “Bush” policies that Obama has continued. Not that I agree with all of the policies, but it is just fun.
I believe the Obama statement is just a reflection on the reality of the situation. Cap and Trade was not passed while Democrats controlled both houses and it certainly does not have the support necessary after the most recent election’s results. There certainly is not enough support in the Senate for approval of Kyoto let alone a measure that would expand the requirements.
