The blog Craptocracy sums up John McCain’s unexpected stance on climate change very nicely:
When McCain talks about ‘climate change’ he seems desperate and grasping, like he doesn’t really care about it one way or the other. It’s as if he’s saying, “I’ll give you your global warming, just let me get my hands on some bombs. Just let me get my hands on some bombs and I will agree to whatever you want that doesn’t involve not bombing.”

That is, Joey, like just insane.
@David Janes: I knew this post would lure you out of hiding. Get ‘im, boys!
Your minions are weak and ineffectual.
McCain needs to randomly insert Abe Simpson lines into his speeches. That is a surefire winning strategy.
@Chris Taylor: And get Andy Griffith, in his “Matlock” character, as running mate.
I’m thinking McCain is his own Matlock, so he needs to take a Hardcastle & McCormick approach by picking somebody a whole lot younger. If I recall correctly the The Equalizer also had a much younger sidekick.
Now that I think about it the Buffy the Vampire Slayer model is probably the best of both worlds. A young, attractive female sidekick who would go off and kick ass while McCain pores through dusty old tomes and figures out how to beat the supernatural bad guys.
That’s one of the rumors: Alaska governor Sarah Palin for McCain’s VP.
So…how’s that whole carbon sequestering thing going up there? you must be pretty fat along, i mean 2012 is like right around the corner…I mean you must be carbon free. Seriously I mean your almost done right?
@Tim: If McCain’s newfound concern with the environment is genuine, you’ll also be watching your carbon footprints.
I direct you to this article, which covers a joint statement by the scientific academies of the G8 countries plus Brazil, China, India, Mexico and South Africa that urges strong action to curb warning.
