Copenhagen was a 193-nation global warming summit. It was a meeting of socialists, communists, and Marxists who want to either redistribute the world’s wealth or get some of it; all in the name of global warming. Obama probably felt more at home at this event than he ever has in America.
Dictator Hugo Chavez got the biggest round of applause at the summit for saying,
There’s a ghost lurking. And Karl Marx said — a ghost running through the streets of Copenhagen. And I think that ghost is silent somewhere in this room amongst us coming through the corridors underneath. And that ghost is a terrible ghost. Nobody wants to name him or her. It’s capitalism. Capitalism is that ghost. (applause) Nobody I don’t think wants to name it. Capitalism.
And all the commies stood up and cheered. This proved the Copenhagen meeting was about wealth redistribution in the name of GW. Not to mention, Hillary Clinton backs the idea for a $100 billon global fund.
Hey, Obama likes Karl Marx and hates capitalism too. Hugo and Obama should get together for coffee.
On a milder note, before he left the summit, Obama declared
that a “meaningful and unprecedented breakthrough” had been reached among the U.S., China and three other countries on a global effort to curb climate change but said much work was still be needed to reach a legally binding treaty.
The president said there was a “fundamental deadlock in perspectives” between big, industrially developed countries like the United States and poorer, though sometimes large, developing nations. Still he said this week’s efforts “will help us begin to meet our responsibilities to leave our children and grandchildren a cleaner planet.”
“We’re in this together, and we’ll know who is meeting and not meeting the mutual obligations that are set forth,” Obama said.
If the countries had waited to reach a full, binding agreement, “then we wouldn’t make any progress,” Obama said. In that case, he said, “there might be such frustration and cynicism that rather than taking one step forward we ended up taking two steps back.”
Then he left town. Obama hopped on Air Force One and flew away. Just like when he was in the senate (always voting present), Obama left before the final vote. He said it was due to “weather conditions” but didn’t mention which one. Was it rain? No. Was it a tornado? No. Was it unbearable hot temperatures that were going to burn his skin? No. It was a massive snowstorm that hit not only D.C. but a huge chunk of the country. It snowed in Copenhagen too.
“I am leaving before the final vote,” Obama said. “We feel confident we are moving in the direction of a final accord.”
It seems to me that global warmers should hold their global warming summits somewhere hot, preferably in the summer. But they don’t so our president had to leave a “global warming” summit due to a a huge snowstorm.
A blizzard-like storm rocked the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast on Saturday, crippling travel across the region and causing tens of thousands of power outages.
Can it get any stupider than this? Yes, it can.
Thanks to the Canadians, we can all sleep better at night,… eh.
A private Canadian company says it will plant 1,176 trees to offset the carbon emitted by Air Force One when it carries President Barack Obama to Copenhagen for the international climate conference.
