Wow, for a country that likes to lead the world, it sure seems like we really suck at leading this whole global climate change thing.

1. Iraq just ratified the UN’s Kyoto Protocol on climate change. That’s right Iraq. Did I mention we are they only industrial nation that hasn’t signed on.
2. At a rally, Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney proclaims “Don’t you understand, they don’t call it American warming, they call it global warming … We don’t need to have America have additional costs that the rest of the world doesn’t bear.”

I don’t really know what to say… i’m sort of speechless.
