...Front Runner's Fight Michael Grunwald concluded there is little evidence that John McCain's surge represents a Republican repudiation of George W. Bush or any element of conservatism [Feb. 18]. He couldn't be more wrong. Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity and James Dobson have spent the past decade telling us whom to vote for. The result has been the most base and incompetent Administration in the history of this country. And now these same gasbags are trying to tell us we're making a mistake in voting for McCain.

...Hard as it may be for environmentalists to accept, the Bush Administration isn't entirely in the wrong. When the United Nations Framework on Climate Change - the international treaty that formed the basis for Kyoto - was hammered out in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, no one could have predicted just how rapidly China's economy and energy use would grow. China is, in fact, about to pass the U.S. as the world's top annual carbon emitter, and the bulk of future greenhouse gas emissions (the only kind we can hope to control now) will, in fact, come from...
