In Thursday’s address at the Major Economies Meeting, U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told attendees that countries around the world must fight climate change together, in the same way we fight terrorism. In other words, by declaring war on a random country, snooping in people's library records and making travelers put 3 oz. bottles in plastic baggies. Or perhaps announcing a Green Alert. But she failed to make any specific practical suggestions, such as threatening Global Warming with America’s weapon of mass awesome: the shirtless, gyrating Soy Bomb.
"No one nation, no matter how much power or political will it possesses, can succeed alone," Rice declared in front of representatives from 16 countries, the United Nations and the European Union. "We all need partners, and we all need to work in concert." Like a Pussycat Dolls concert! Oh wait, Gore tried that already…
The next day, President Bush told the group that he was calling on the world's largest producers of greenhouse gas emissions to set long-term goals for reduction. However, upon hearing the news that the U.S. actually decreased greenhouse gas emissions by 1.3 percent last year, Bush posed for photos in a HAZMAT suit standing on top of his compost pile in the backyard and declared “Mission Accomplished”.

I think Michael Portnoy AKA "Mr. Soy Bomb" would have gotten a lot more done than Condi and W at that meeting!

I love the image of the President on the compost pile. If you know a computer graphics whiz, you should get him or her to design the poster.
