The newly updated Republican platform addresses Global Warming. Previously it was skeptical of the science behind it, now it has softened it's stance.
The platform states: "By increasing our American energy supply and decreasing the long-term demand for oil, we will be well positioned to address the challenge of global warming ..."
They probably did this to make McCain seem more in step with his party.
The Democrats at least jumped on the bandwagon when both science and the thermometer pointed towards global warming. But the Republicans are jumping on the wagon just as the wheels are falling off as we now seem to be heading into another ice age.
Maybe they should add "Tectonic Implosion" to the platform, then they would be on the cutting edge of an environmental crisis, instead of getting behind something after its disproven.
