Bush has not only proved incapable of solving problems at home (creating an enormous budget deficit) but has also endangered the whole world by drawing back from international commitments (like the Kyoto Protocol), undermining the authority of the U.N. and ignoring the advice of old allies and the sentiments of the international community.

Sins Of Emission In its efforts to combat climate change, the European Commission seems to be producing its own hot air. Brussels boasted last week that all provisions of the 1997 Kyoto protocol on climate change are now legally binding. As part of the Kyoto deal, the E.U. agreed to lower greenhouse gas emission levels by 8% below 1990 levels between 2008 and 2012.
