US2World – we may be CO2 no-show, but make deal anyway

The Obama Administration’s commitment only to climate-control lite, aided by the HUGE soft bigotry of low expectations when its environmental record gets compared to BushCo’s, becomes clearer all the time.

Jonathan Pershing, the deputy special envoy for climate change, said Team Obama may not have climate change legislation through Congress in time for officially being part of the Copenhagen accord in December.
“It might mean that you have a framework in place as opposed to absolute numbers. Those numbers may come a bit later,” Pershing said.

That said, by the time Markey-Waxman gets through Congress, both those gentlemen may want their names off the piece of Swiss cheese.
