Clinton Upstages Bush

In the wake of Kyoto, Canadians crafted a proposal that gave the U.S. a voice at global warming talks in Montreal. But the U.S. has given the proposal the Heisman and they have refused to participate. The negotiations were designed to be non-binding, an attempt by the international community to work out differences in a civilized manner. The administration is blissfully unaware of the effects its 25% of the world's greenhouse gases causes—one more problem they're dumping on the next generation. Update: A showing by President Clinton may have rattled administration delegates. $Q from CTV: "They haven't protested formally, but they're annoyed," a source in the Canadian government told The Associated Press. "They're not infuriated, but they're not thrilled."
