After blaming Bush for a bunch of stuff...
The folder labeled "climate change" that George W. Bush left behind for his successor on the desk of the Oval Office in January likely wasn't a thick one. Although Bush once said that America is overly dependent on oil, he never got beyond that insight. He was too busy waging war on Iraq and searching for a legal basis for extraordinary renditions to pay much attention to the real threat facing humanity. "Forget the climate" seems to have been Bush's unofficial motto.
...the writer goes on to lay the same thing on Obama.
But few people expected that Barack Obama, of all people, would continue his predecessor's
climate change plan. When he took office at the beginning of 2009, it was clear that the success of the UN Climate Change Summit in Copenhagen in December depended almost entirely on the US -- that America needed to take a clear leadership role on a problem that could shake civilization to its very core.
Obama lied-the planet died! I guess maybe they are getting a taste of what we on the right knew before he was even elected; that he said what he needed to say to get elected. Then when he got the power, he realized he was far in over his head.
