Australian obfuscation on global warming

Australian Prime Minister John Howard continues to reject the Kyoto accord. Why? Well, as George W. Bush laments, so does he, that it doesn’t include developing, indeed rapidly developing, nations such as India and China.

And — here’s a new wrinkle — he’s also upset because it doesn’t include the U.S.

Geez, why hasn’t Bush thought of this one? We obviously can’t join Kyoto because it doesn’t include India, China and — Australia.

Sheer brilliance, and sheer chutzpah, Mr. PM.
