Chimp Apparatchik - Assuming Sharp Turn On Climate By Bush Successor "Miscalculation" - AFP
The White House on Thursday warned that countries hoping US President George W. Bush's successor will break sharply with his climate change policies are making "a political miscalculation."

"There has occasionally been voiced the misimpression that a future administration will take a significantly different attitude towards climate than this administration," said deputy national security adviser Dan Price.

"It would be a political miscalculation were some countries to believe that a future administration or a future congress will be less concerned about addressing comprehensively the question of emissions from all major economies," said Price, whose brief is international economic affairs.

The presumptive nominees to succeed Bush -- Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain -- have said publicly that they plan to take a different approach from Bush's strategy, which has drawn fire even from US allies.
