Who Owns President Bush?
President Bush would not sign the Kyoto protocol for the United States. Apparently the reason is that it would put too much burden on the oil industry to clean up their act. Guess whose money put Bush in?
Bush’s buddy, Philip Cooney, was at one time a lobbyist for the oil industry. Bush brought him on his team, where he helped write the pollution standards. (He isn’t a scientist.) Omitted from the final document (by Cooney) was an initial statement that linked the pollution of the oil industry to the global warming. At the same time over 300 cities this summer are setting record temperatures as a result of global warming. Hurricanes this summer are 50% stronger and longer due to the global warming. Normally there are about six hurricanes in a season. This year they expect 9-11 hurricanes. In 2004 there were 1700 tornados in the U.S.. A record. Now Cooney has moved on and has a top job at Exxon Mobil.
Now, knowing this, let’s ask you a few questions. Why (really) are oil prices so high? Why did President Bush lead us into the Iraq war on statements there were not true? What is the real reason he doesn’t sign Kyoto?
