At least the administration is ending on a high note:
The Bush administration on Friday rejected regulating greenhouse gases blamed for global warming, saying it would damage the U.S. economy and cause too many job losses.
In a 588-page federal notice, the Environmental Protection Agency made no finding on whether global warming poses a threat to people's health, reversing an earlier conclusion at the insistence of the White House and officially kicking any decision on a solution to the next president and Congress.
It's hard to get too excited, since "the next president and Congress" will be sure to shove the "solution" down our throats. Both Obama and McCain are onboard the global-warming train, and Congress will be chocked full of Democrats. Disaster has been postponed, not averted.
