In a move that ought to alarm conservatives John McCain blasted the Bush administration's actions on Global Warming. From the
LA Times:
"I would assess this administration's record on global warming as
terrible," McCain said, recalling that he got "no cooperation from the
administration" at Senate hearings on the subject. He pronounced himself "
very
happy to see the president mention global warming and a renewed commitment from the administration to this issue." But he added tartly: "It's long
overdue."
(White House spokesman Tony Fratto declined to respond directly to McCain
but said Bush had "set an ambitious goal for our nation to cut greenhouse gas
emissions, and we're meeting it.")
I suppose all of his friends at
Davos urged him to support the Kyoto Treaty as well. I wonder how much of the American Economy he is willing to sell down the river over "Global Warming."
I also found this bit interesting from the Vice President:
McCain said that Bush had been "very badly served" by Rumsfeld and Vice
President Dick Cheney, who shot back Wednesday.
"I just fundamentally disagree with John," Cheney told ABC News. "John said
some nasty things about me the other day, and then next time he saw me, ran over
to me and apologized. Maybe he'll apologize to Rumsfeld."
