If Bush wants to pick a fight with Congress over reality and the facts about global warming he will only lose this fight. His argument is based on fiction produced by the AEI and oil companies.

It won’t stand up in court or with Congress. He is not a member of the executive branch. He can’t ask for funding for his office under the executive branch and then not abide by executive orders regarding classification and declassification of documents. He is not above the law.

It would mean admitting the surge has failed. He went ahead with the surge even though the Joint Chiefs of Staff didn't support it. Petraeus has indicated that troops would stay in Iraq for the next decade. Withdrawing some troops won't work. All troops must be brought home not just some.

Sure household income went down, yet per-capita GDP went up while the average family size went down. In other words, if my daughter moved out and got a base-pay job, my family income went up while her lower pay contributed to dropping the lower overall household income. Concentrate on the entire wealth level spread across everyone, that number went up. Just spin from people who are obviously willing to believe anything.
