why don't conservatives take the conservative route regarding global warming - and err on the side of caution?
it seems obvious to us that a planet is not something you experiment with.
it's a huge problem of "denial" - a lemming syndrome where the republicans, most of them anyways, go with the pack without considering how easy it would be to play it safe and curb global warming.
i hope some day the issue of environment and in particular this issue of global warming - will be a bi partisan one. it is really a shame to have such short term thinking decision makers in power.
one can only guess what the history books might say in the future about America's mistake of not playing it safe on global warming, even when we had the means to play it safe.
