GOP split by environment strategy

Talking points rile moderates as party looks to fight with Democrats.

"WASHINGTON -- Republican House leaders are warning their members that "Democrats will hit us hard on the environment" this election year.

(Capital letters mine, words theirs. B)

"Their advice? Tell voters that

GLOBAL WARMING HAS NOT BEEN PROVED, that there are

NO CLEAR LINKS BETWEEN AIR POLLUTION AND CHILDHOOD ASTHMA and that

AMERICA'S RIVERS AND LAKES AREN'T NEARLY AS POLLUTED AS THE (BUSH ADMINISTRATION) ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY SAYS THEY ARE."

Yep, you Republicans, just close your eyes, hold your nose, and "tell 'em".

What a hoot!!! Made my morning.
