Will somebody stand up against Bush?

John Aravosis at Americablog says,

Bush is, yet again, trying to water down an international statement on global warming. Will the Europeans, who are the other parties to the statement, sign on, like they always do, when Bush waters down every single good thing they ever try to do? It's time the European governments started acting like adults. If Bush doesn't want to acknowledge global warming, then fine, let him kill the entire G-8 statement that you're all preparing. Bush is at 28% approval in our country - if he kills this deal, he will be the one to blame in our country and yours. At some point, European governments need to start defending their own people and their own interests rather than simply being lapdogs to an out of control, lame duck president. What do those same countries think Bush would do if he didn't like what you were forcing down his throat? He'd say "screw you" and walk.

And at some point, the European people need to start forcing their governments to do the right thing.

Hear, hear. It's about time somebody had the guts to stand up to this maniac. The Democrats don't. The Europeans don't. In some ways it's too bad the Soviet Union isn't still around. At least they bucked back with some degree of clout. Of course, if they still were around, Bush would have started a nuclear war five years ago, and we'd all be charcoal right now.
