GAUNTLET THROWN: President Bush called for the top 15 greenhouse gas producing nations, including the U.S., to set a goal for reducing the pollution by the end of 2008.

HOT TOPIC: The announcement could deflect criticism during next week's summit of leading industrialized nations, where global warming is sure to be discussed.

CLEARING THE AIR: The countries would begin talks this fall, but each would be able to develop its own strategy.

Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

This family apparently has no sense of shame at all. They've cost the taxpayers billions of dollars and yet there are still a hardcore few who think them worthy of something other than a new rope and short drop.

The assinine war and the cronyism of the incompetent aren't enough for this bunch. Isn't Neil the one that cost so much for the S&L bailout?

This family is disgusting from top to bottom. I used to have some respect for Barbara, but she's managed to lie down with the rest of the dogs in the family and man do they have fleas.

I saw this quite a while ago and it's hard to recall the exact circumstances but there was a follow on bit with Neil selling the Ignite software as part of a diplomatic tour in the former Soviet Union. It was just more of the same, we help our own while appearing to help the world and the nation. If you have an interest it's probably not too hard to google the info.
