Hey, At Least We're Better Than the Saudis!

More climate change nonsense coming out of Bali.

I long for the day when we don't get any dubious global warming or climate change idiocy, though I suspect that day will never come.
A new report rates the climate-protection performance of 56 countries that account for 90 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions. While Germany came in at second-best, the US ranked second worst.
Yes, this absurd report claims we're worse than Mexico and India.

As if.

Into the circular file this one goes...
The index, compiled by Germanwatch, a nonprofit climate research institute based in Berlin and Bonn, evaluates and ranks the climate-protection performance of 56 industrialized nations that account for 90 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions. On this year's list, Sweden retained the top spot, while Saudi Arabia was deemed the most irresponsible emitter among the world's major economies.
Demonstating the politics behind this sham summit in Bali, they acknowledge we'd have a better report card if only we caved in and submitted to the demands of the globwarm alarmist crowd.
"To improve their ranking, the US would need to contribute considerably to the current climate discussions (in Bali) and would need to commit to binding emissions reductions," said Busch.
