That's awesome!<br /><br />Few thoughts - might it be that Bush had to voice opinion over the environment much more because he was seen to be against any reform in favour of protection? Therefore he was challenged more regularly?<br /><br />Could it also be that, despite not mentioning it much, this isn't necessarily an indicator that it has been dropped as a primary concern of his. <br /><br />Rather, after the bashing he has been taking in recent months, he needs to focus on (talking about at least) issues that he needs to vigorously defend or push in order to gain popularity, particularly after the recession? That being a problem that neither Clinton nor Bush had to deal with?<br /><br />Just some ideas from an ignorant admirer.
