Bush rejecting the Kyoto treaty?
Posted By Jane on July 21, 2001
Q. What do you think about President Bush rejecting the Kyoto treaty? I think the fact that America’s premier leader is rejecting an ultimatum that may be crucial to the survival of humankind may lead many people around the world to backpedal in this manner as well. Or maybe I am overestimating the influence of America and its leaders on a sociological scale. What do you think about this?

A. To many nations America is a joke because of our leaders and the way the American press handles the news on the domestic front and virtually ignores the news on the foreign front. Before being president our Bush had only been outside the country twice. He is certainly not a worldly man and does not qualify to be the leader of a nation that is so powerful in the world. Although everyone laughs at America- America’s actions and decisions are taken seriously and do influence “world decisions”. I am simply terrified that Bush is our president and making so many bad choices and really blatantly messing up the world. I am ashamed that he is my president and can’t wait for his term to end. I think Bush is recognized as a real loser by many other leaders and I’m hoping that other countries unite in rejecting America’s decisions and acting for positive changes that will preserve the planet for humans in the future. The green party and other environmentalist groups have much more strength in other nations. Our two party system fails to ever really give us a true choice when it comes to voting for more radical platforms. When it comes to speaking politically I am not very eloquent and mostly I’m just frustrated and exhausted and can’t even believe I have to argue for life over money. Money is the renewable resource- our living world is not. There are so many unexplored alternatives to solve the energy problems that exist. I am ashamed to be human when I think about president Bush. Just writing this response makes me depressed. I just can’t wait for Bush’s term to end. I wish we could impeach him on moral grounds. He’s much more evil than Clinton, who was threatened with impeachment by the media. Clinton messed up his personal situation by screwing a consenting woman. Bush is messing up the world that is public, by screwing the planet that doesn’t have its own political voice. Bush is a rapist of our world and should be recognized as a criminal.
