Bush questions greenhouse sources
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060522/ap_on_go_pr_wh/bush_gore_global_warming


"CHICAGO - Is President Bush likely to see Al Gore's documentary about global warming?

"Doubt it," Bush said coolly Monday.

Bush has had bitter disagreements with Gore about the environment and other issues. Bush defeated Gore, then the Democratic vice president, in a disputed presidential election that was finally settled by the Supreme Court in 2000.

Gore's documentary chronicles his efforts to bring greater attention to the dangers of climate change.

"New technologies will change how we live and how we drive our cars which all will have the beneficial effect of improving the environment," Bush said. "And in my judgment we need to set aside whether or not greenhouse gases have been caused by mankind or because of natural effects and focus on the technologies that will enable us to live better lives and at the same time protect the enviroment."

2. Yes, the way to maintain legitimate authority
is to refuse to listen to any voice that doesn't come out of your own ass. It's all in the attitude.

"I am perfect--you are less than nothing."

That is the Bush philosophy. Remember, you can't write "Compassion" without an ASS.

5. Does this man have any idea of the words that come out of his mouth?
Or is he just a random word generator?

Either way, whatever he says, NEVER has anything to do with what he does.
