On May 12, 2008, John McCain said he would show leadership in dealing with global warming, which is still on such shaky scientific ground that it’s proponents are using bullying tactics and deceit to defend their own positions.

Of course, he had to throw some scraps of red meat to ordinary conservative supporters, and so threw in some jargon about nuclear power so he have them to annoy later.  Otherwise, he continued to give his fellow Democrats everything they ever wanted, and happily gave everyone some Straight Talk about how much he’s showing leadership on the subject.
