A Day Late & a Dollar Short: Obama & China agree on Languid Climate Goals

[stupidicus]

but it will be a good trade for a pipeline approval for his most avid supporters. It's obscene how the dem leaders coincidentally and in a very timely manner decide to use that pipeline in an effort to save a "liberal/progressive", no?

It is a sad commentary that this agreement is actually an improvement on previous goals of the two countries. And it is better to have an agreement with firm dates and targets than to have the two carbon monsters take turns hiding behind each other at climate talks. But this agreement isn’t a commitment to reduce carbon emissions on a timescale appropriate to the magnitude of the crisis. It mostly kicks the ball down the road.http://www.juancole.com/2014/11/dollar-languid-climate.html

1. I knew some would be along soon to tell us why this is terrible news.

Thanks!!

7. what you know must be very little

or your imagination stays in overdrive, since the "terrible" word is nowhere to be found.

Not as good as it could be is hardly the functional equivalent of "terrible", is it?

2. The sun never shines on your corner

of the world does it?

[stupidicus]

8. sure it does

for example, I find non-topical responses to be highly amusing, and sometimes quite stupid if the users of such think it actually addresses and rebuts that targeted with it.
