The Bush administration has just announced that it has accepted the fact that global warming exists. This goes in direct contrast to the lies and propaganda that have been coming from the Republican Party for over a decade that global warming does not exist. This is a major turn and true leadership towards the truth, and I applaud the president.
The new argument, that global warming exists but we don’t want to do anything about it, is a legitimate argument that at least gives voters a choice based on truth. Once the truth is made known, we can each choose which side we want to be on – take steps to slow global warming, or simply ignore it and allow it to continue unthwarted.
While I don’t agree with the president’s position to do nothing, I am ecstatic to see him oppose his own right wing and special interest group supporters and bear witness to the truth.
Now, what other lies have we been told that we as a nation would be better served by the truth?
