We're #53! We're #53!
Click here to read about our pathetic ranking on dealing with global warming -- and the (surprise, surprise) empty conservative spin on the subject from Tony Snow.

1. I am not surprised
All Bushco cares about is oil, oil, oil...DRILL DRILL for oil. Even Ann Coulter says "God gave us right to RAPE the EARTH." Fundies do not care about environment because they say after all Jeb-uz is coming soon. They believe the end is near so therefore why waste time spending money to worry about enviroment? Why can't they just dirty up their own houses, their own yards, their own water, their own air and leave the rest of us alone to respect the Earth. :web:

4. according to thinkprogress.org
the major accomplishment of the administration is the creation of a climate change website at the EPA, although the site suggests that individuals and companies can voluntarily improve the climate. there's no suggestion the government plans to do anything constructive.

The US is #53 in Freedom of the Press as well.

5. GW will try to hide any negatives to cover his a*--, only ....
this time, he will get caught with his pants down, as Mother Nature will expose his lack of corrective action through drastic changes to the environment. He may have been able to hide his shenanigans from his mama when he was young, but he's a big boy now and there ain't no rug big enough to fool Ma Nature.
