Climate change deal fails

The Times (London) is reporting that the major developing countries (China, India) are refusing to set a target for reducing their emissions targets unless the developed countries reduce their targets substantially by 2020.

Anyone who thinks that they will do any such thing is dreaming. They will gain a great advantage over the developed countries if those countries follow the liberal pied pipers down the lane of unilateral reductions.

If Obama's "cap and trade" legislation should pass, it would leave our industries even more at the mercy of China and India. It would be like handing them millions of jobs for nothing.

Yet the left in our country, obsessed with the "chicken little" aspects of alleged "global warming" would lead us down that path, and right in the middle of the worst recession since the Great Depression.

That makes a lot of sense, doesn't?
