Obama's dearth of action on climate change

Check out this article from Grist on how Pres. Obama must start to measure his policies against scientific reality instead of the low bar set by previous American presidents: "Mr. President: Time to quit fibbing and spinning." I know there's a tremendous amount of stuff on this admin.'s plate, but you can't have your climate change cake and eat it too: either our president considers this a priority of the first order (the impression I got in his campaign, etc.) or he doesn't- I completely agree that it's time that he lines his actions up with his words or explains why he changed his mind.
