BAMBOOZLED BY THE IDIOT...AGAIN:

Bali deal leaves greens in despair (Jonathan Leake, 12/16/07, Sunday Times of London)

AS more than 180 countries agreed a deal on climate change at the UN summit in Bali, environmentalists punctured the mood of self-congratulation by pointing to the failure to agree firm targets for reducing emissions.

Although the main industrialised countries, including America, agreed to cut their greenhouse gas emissions, they refused to agree to an European Union proposal for a target of 25%-40% cuts by 2020.

Campaigners claimed the world’s biggest carbon emitters, including America, Japan and Canada, will now be free to carry on expanding such emissions for many more years to come.

It isn't just how often W wins "negotiations" that's revealing, but how long it takes for folks to figure out that he did.
