| #15 How about sanctions of Social-Democrats instead. China and India will never sign on why should we. I already don't knowingly buy German products. The German media has a program of hate against the US and the German people can't get enough of it. I will not reward them with my money. They can freeze in the dark I am not going to. |

| #11 Bush should have a meeting with the Japanese in the city of Kyoto and sign a protocol to fight giant monsters. Then when anyone makes stupid claims like the Germans here he can mock them for not taking the giant monster threat seriously and not signing Kyoto Protocol '08. |

| #10 Bush should call them out. The Kyoto protocols were written after the worst pollutions in East Germany were cleaned up with baselines that included East German numbers so Germany had the easiest task to make their goals. It was a cheat from the start and I still don't think they are making their numbers. |

| #9 "pressuring the Bush administration to ratify the Kyoto Protocol" They've all bashed Bush so long that they've forgotten that even Al Gore as president of the Senate could not get the Senate anywhere close to ratification. And 2008 is not the year either. If they were sincerely worried about climate change, wouldn't they stop using energy-intensive products from anywhere on the globe? |

| #8 Too bad. The Germans make nice stuff, but if I have to buy American or Japanese or something else...oh, well. |

| #5 This could prove amusing, as Chancellor Merkel cuts them off at the knees. |

| #4 The Social Democrats are calling for sanctions on energy-intensive U.S. export products if the Bush administration continues to obstruct international agreements on climate protection, the party's leading environmental expert said Tuesday. Damn, why couldn't you guys do this fifty or forty years ago? Would have save us a lot of money and resources rather than being the suckers we were in providing the defense of Western Europe. Think of all that Soviet style environmental legacy you could be dealing with now, instead of playing stupid pseudo morality games. |

| #3 All those US-spec Bimmers and Benzes . . . it'd be a shame if you couldn't sell 'em here anymore. |

| #2 In this case I support Bush's preemption policy. Cut the Germans off. |

| #1 Germany has absolutely no moral authority to order anyone to do anything. In fact, it probably will never have moral authority to conduct anything again. You will never rule again. |
