Oh - the poor Kyoto protocol - I will always say that when the rest of the world comes on board, we should. I also think Clinton knew there was no way that would happen, so he set W up on that one. But, I agree, we should adopt the KP - it will just never happen until both R and D politicians get off the corp. tit
As for socialized medicine, I am not against it in theory, I am just scared of what will happen if the govt. takes it over. The govt. tends to screw up everything it touches and then makes it into a procedural nightmare like Medicare and SS. So, I think in the end, forcing doctors and hospitals to donate a third of their time and rape the ins. companies for the other 2/3 is the only way to ensure quality and non-bureaucratic health care. But, who knows, it seems to work in GB
BTW - did you catch Preacher man Al Gore on CNN tonight

Bless his spot light deprived heart
