Voice from the Commonwealth Commentary, World Views and Occasional Rants from a small 'l' libertarian in Massachussetts
"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

"Your blog is bullshit"- anonymous angry French reader.
Mr. Gore on the attack. Maybe while VP he was too busy inventing the internet or doing a 'damn good job' to notice that Enron was the biggest supporter of Kyoto. Which would explain why he makes the statment Just as Enron executives were allowed to interview candidates for the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission — and to veto those they didn't think would approve of Enron's agenda. If this were true President Bush would have supported Kyoto which would have made his Enron 'pals' tremendous sums of money. Mr. Gore conveniently ignores what would have happened to the US eceonmy in the wake of Kyoto. Which could be why others are now dropping it (including Japan and some European nations). Perhaps he should consder why the nations that are the loudest supporters of Kyoto would like to see it in place.
He also failed to read the accounts that show the Administration did try ot consult the environmental advocacy groups, but were flatly rejected.
With Chris Dodd and oither Democrats paving the way to Enron needed auditors who wouldn't blow the whistle when the company lied about the magnitude of its future liabilities while the Administration that Mr Gore served as Vice President for, perhaps he should be more careful when drawing attention to how he and his friends set the stage for the things he now accuses the present Administration of doing.
Still grasping at straws in the run up to November.
