Dunthorpe: 61% of polled Americans favored continuted participation....only 17% favored withdrawal.  Every stakeholder in the energy field supported continued pafrticipation...including fossil fuel providers.  Additionally, you choose to completely ignore the climate change implications of continued carbon emissions.  

Good and  bad are opinions....we certainly differ on this one.  "Surely there must be at least one bad idea you don't support Gary"  Yes, let me cite just one: ignoring the public, all stakeholders in the energy business, dismissing the scientific evidence of climate change and man's role in it, and, instead, making a Presidential decision based on "climate change denial."
