On Saturday Australian PM, John Howard, got beaten like a gong. Australia's new PM ran on a platform of immediately signing the Kyoto protocols, leaving the US as the only industirialized nation which has not signed it, and to pull Australian combat troops out of Iraq.

And tell us Bully, does signing the Kyoto protocols bring down the emissions from a country? How much have all these other countries really brought down in emissions? Especially when the vast majority of all these countries have zero obligations to really do anything other than monitor and report their emissions. Kyoto is nothing more than a UN attempt to tax the US in billions of dollars. Don't know about you, but I think our government is spending enough money as is.
Lets also not forget that Kyoto was made in 1998, when your dear fellows B.J. Clinton and Al "Savior of the Warm World" Gore were the pricks in command. And they were the ones who chose not to ratify it in the Senate, mainly because even they saw right through the double standard within the treaty that gave a free pass to China.
Nice try though, trying to pin Howard's loss on Bush. Especially over something like Kyoto, which Austalia had its own reasons to not sign it either.
