Off Topic Re: US Green politics (was: Ada and the NMD)

My point exactly. If the treaty is such a great and wonderful thing, then
the European nations should just get off their butts and sign it. Maybe if
there is this huge groundswell of support and acceptance on the part of
Europe, the United States will get caught up in the general celebration and
in a fit of good will and camraderie go sign along with them.

If Europeans want to complain that the US should go sign this treaty, I'd
suggest that they first come here with a photocopy of their signed treaty &
demonstrate that they really mean it. Otherwise, it looks suspiciously like
the Europeans *don't* want to sign the treaty but still want to look
"green" - so they blame their lack of signature on the US.

I'm willing to be proven wrong. Just sign it and post a copy on the net. :-)
