Bush Administration Does 180-Degree Turn on Global Warming, Fails to Alert Bush

Citing the "best possible scientific information", an Administration official, James Mahoney, delivered a report to the US Congress that essentially reversed the previous White House position set out by President George Bush, who had refused to link carbon dioxide emissions to climate change.
But in an interview with The New York Times yesterday, Mr Bush appeared unfamiliar with the report. Asked why the Administration had changed its position on what causes global warming, Mr Bush replied, "Ah, we did? I don't think so."
