The War on Pollution
OKay, imagine this scenario...
After four more years of disaster, the Republicans get the boot and the Democrats are left with a world shattered by war. After four years of rebuilding, when the effects of two terms of Bush on the environment are becoming all too evident, the Republicans point their finger and spit: "See? Back when we were in the White House, everything was still green. Now look at it." And then it starts. "Schwarzenegger for trees!" "Schwarzenegger, The Environment President." After some minor amendments to the constitution the governator is elected and on we go. "Yes, the polluters don't like me, becauze I am gonna kick their azzes." The War on Pollution "YOUR neighbor could be a polluter!" Then they dig up another McCarthy somewhere and get organized. "In other news today, the NRA has announced it will be sponsoring the hunt for polluters--" ... (the oil industry is left alone, of course) Last edited by Ninja Dodo; 12-21-2004 at 07:04 PM. |

Karl Rove will wave his magic wand and it will all make sense... in an Orwellian kind of way.
Also, really, nobody was expecting this at all... Last edited by Ninja Dodo; 12-22-2004 at 09:00 AM. |

Anyway, that's enough cynicism from me for today.

Did you know Russia is going to ratify the Kyoto Protocol? I'm kind of surprised.
