In a final concession, Bush promised to be a better steward of the planet. "I haven't always been clear about the threat global warming poses," he said. "In retrospect, having oil industry lobbyists edit our climate reports was probably a bad idea." He also admitted that initiatives such as "Healthy Forests" and "Clear Skies" had led to excess logging and air pollution, respectively. To make amends, he has appointed former rival and Nobel laureate Al Gore to head his new conservation initiative, which calls for mandatory cuts on greenhouse gas emissions and rigorous protection for species classified as threatened or endangered. "We're calling it 'Pristine Planet,' " said Bush. "And this time we mean it."

7. I was fully aware of that.

Of course it was an April fools joke. The article seems to be gone now but if I recall correctly it said something about it being April 1st at the end of the article. It was obvious to me even without that.

If this turns out to be a joke, not only does Bush have to walk back to Texas after his term is finished, but he must carry Karl Rove on his back the whole way.
