Since Clinton and Bush didn't sign the Koyoto protocal, can Obama?

Clue, Clinton read it and threw it in the trash, didn't give it to the Senate, Bush read it and gave it to the Senate.

    Well, to do that he needs 2/3 of the Congress. Hopefully the congress has been renewed as the presidency.

    If he could, hopefully he wouldn't. Whether or not you believe in global warming Kyoto itself is a disaster of a document. Anyone who has signed on should abandon it because the set goals are all but impossible to meet.

    No, he can't sign the Kyoto Protocol.

    He probably could but it's too late. Kyoto is practically done already. Obama will help establish the next climate agreement in Copenhagen though.

    I'm sure he could, but who knows...

    Obama could sign it or throw it in the trash...

    just like the others.

    I hope Obama isn't Al Gore though, Al Gore is a lunatic!
