    It's not like India's gonna throw up its hands and say, "Oh, too bad! We missed our chance!" either.

    So, what should the US do? Nothing at all? Keep on polluting ourselves - because China and India might?

    We're going to be the best polluters! We're winning the pollution race, thanks to all the coal miners in West Virginia and Pennsylvania.

    These climate agreements have much greater effects on the U.S. than they do on smaller, less productive countries. If it's not in the country's interests to enter into an agreement, we shouldn't be browbeaten by alarmists into doing SOMETHING, especially when that something could be harmful to the economy.

    You need to pull a truck. It takes six men to pull the truck. Five refuse to do it.

    What are you doing to do?

    That being said, I kind of like that WE have cleaner air than we used to, because of environmental regulations. But that's all you're going to get out of our efforts. The planet is out of our hands.

    My wife was quite surprised upon seeing American cars for the first time. "Hey, there's no black smoke coming from the back."

    Red meat for YF.



    "The Russians, in my opinion, could not have known how best to weaponize that information unless they had been guided," she said. When pressed on who she thinks colluded with Russia to supply this information, Clinton said, "I'm leaning Trump. I think it's pretty hard not to."

    We gone?

    President Trump is expected to withdraw the United States from the Paris climate agreement, three officials with knowledge of the decision said, making good on a campaign pledge but severely weakening the landmark 2015 climate change accord that committed nearly every nation to take action to curb the warming of the planet.

    But he / she who speaks to Trump last..

    And Mr. Trump has proved himself willing to shift direction up until the moment of a public announcement. He is set to meet Wednesday afternoon with Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who has advocated that the United States remain a part of the Paris accords and could continue to lobby the president to change his mind.

    Find a way to do it without their help using technology (a Warn should do the trick).

    I think you're on to something.

    Maybe we could reinvent Reagan's Star Wars initiative and launch a giant vacuum cleaner into space.

    It goes wherever it goes.

    Somewhere, nowhere, wherever.

    I don't think Mueller is a stooge.
