********.. I hope... well, maybe you are right...

we," Bush said. "They never stop thinking about new ways
to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

Coming live and direct from ca.environment, and looking at the other
newsgroups targetted by Vandeman, makes it clear to me that he is talking
about the Koyoto Treaty, nothing else.

You might think he is making reference to a different treaty, but you don't
know Mike very well if you think he cares about anything other than his
whacked out view of the environment. I do not suggest that taking a position
on the environment is whacked out, I only suggest that the view that Mike
has is whacked out.

Kyoto wasn't ratified by the Senate. ABM was, and yes Vandamage is a
wack job.

Some of the people trashing the environment, believe that the world is
about to end, as forecast in the Book of Revelations.

If the world is about to end, there is no need to preserve it, because
the Battle of Armageddon will destroy it all anyway, then the true
believers go to heaven.

Some consider this fiction, others consider it next week's news.

(1) Despite incorrect and deliberate media declarations of a Gore victory in
Florida that resulted in THOUSANDS of panhandle voters not casting their
ballot, the Supreme Court ratified GW's nomination -- Legal.
(2) Treaty violation would be recognized by NATO and the UN. It would also
be blown all over the place by the Media. Now, with the Media's hatred of
GW, we would have heard about that (even if they attained the info from a
forged document...ask Dan Rather!!).
(3) Afghanistan and Iraq were/are overpopulated with dangerous ASSHOLES that
will give their own life to kill innocent civilians. These ASSHOLES have
demonstrated that they will hijack aircraft from within our borders and kill
thousands in one sweep if we don't kill them first. September 11 was
neither healthy for people, or the environment. One must consider
priorities....er eh, nevermind...you obviously don't get it.
(4) The president does not have the authority to envoke power that is not
specifically given to him by our Constitution. If he does, we have a little
thing called Impeachment (Did you know that Clinton's impeachment papers are
on display in the Smithsonian? Awesome!!!) Further, your side's precious
UN gave global authorization to wage war on Iraq if they violated sanctions
back in 1991...Sadam repeatedly commited violations.
(5) Hmmmmm, let's see. About 3000 innocent, non military lives were taken
by ASSHOLES on September 11. By your figures, 120,000 innocents have been
killed by GW??? Back that up (or, put it in as a suggestion on Rather's
website!!)
(6) According to the popular vote yesterday, MOST Americans don't have any
respect for the UN.
(7) You are finally correct!!! ASSHOLE Terrorists are everywhere in this
world and they hate all All Americans (including the president). And GW has
found a sweet spot in the MidEast where they are coming to us...by the
thousands. Bringem' on baby!!!

I'm very proud to be an American...And you sir, are a disgrace.

In fact, in an almost unheard of moment of unity, the senate voted 100
to ZERO to NOT ratify the Kyoto treaty because of the obvious
problems. It was NOT a good idea, IOW.

And yes, it's not a secret that MV is a whack job (though I believe
you spelled it wrong). The fact he apparently supported Kerry should
make virtually everyone feel better, regardless of your political
leanings. ;-)
