The 2000 election is finally getting to George.

Now he thinks he's Al Gore.

The Bush administration has decided to propose listing the polar bear as
threatened under the Endangered Species Act, putting the U.S. government on
record as saying that global warming could drive one of the world's most
recognizable animals out of existence.

He even goes on to blame Gore's bogeyman, the internal combustion engine:

Because scientists have concluded that carbon dioxide from power-plant and auto emissions is helping drive global warming worldwide, putting polar bears on the endangered species list raises the legal question of whether the government would be required to compel U.S. industries to curb their carbon-dioxide output.
