Bad news, this time on the "climate change" front:
"Senator John McCain sought to distance himself from President Bush on Monday as he called for a mandatory limit on greenhouse gas emissions in the United States to combat climate change. Mr. McCain, in a speech at a wind power company, also pledged to work with the European Union to diplomatically engage China and India, two of the world’s biggest polluters, if they refuse to participate in an international agreement to slow global warming."
Great. This is guaranteed to bring much bigger government.
And if Mr. McCain thinks this will somehow appease liberal critics, he'd better think again. "Environmentalists" and the left will, assuredly, condemn his proposals as insufficient and attack him all the harder. Our friends on the left don't look upon such movement towards their position as something favorable. Rather, they see it as a sign of weakness, and simply ratchet up their attacks (ask George H.W. Bush what his willingness to raise taxes in 1990 got him from Democrats and liberals).
