What really appalls me is the ignorant and immoral sensitivity to the consequences of anthropogenic climate change on the poor around the world. The lives and livelihoods of hundreds of millions are at risk. His arrogance is revolting. That he is heading up one of the most important agencies on the planet working on this critical challenge is incredibly demoralizing.

Of course enraging, demoralizing, and alienating the rest of the world is what the Bush Administration does best.
