DAVOS, Switzerland -- Former U.S. President Bill Clinton told corporate chieftains and political bigwigs Saturday that climate change was the world's biggest problem _ followed by global inequality and the "apparently irreconcilable" religious and cultural differences behind terrorism.

Clinton's comments provided something a freewheeling and philosophical finale _ ahead of Sunday's formal wrap-up _ to several days of high-powered discourse on the state of the world, and the mostly admiring audience seemed to hang on his every word.

Bill look at this!! Talk about climate change!! That's the climate change we need to worry about!!!!!

Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. 11 ¶ And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Gee, wonder if Hilliary agrees?

Clinton called for "a serious global effort to develop a clean energy future" to avoid the onset of another ice age

I didn't get too far on this, from the hang on his every word to the next sentence, he has left me speechless, in awe, at his incredible statements!

[ConservativeChinese]

Yeah, right.

[MrBambaLaMamba]

To save the world freedom and resistance must be crushed using mandated conformance measures that the wise overlords have spent countless hours perfecting and planning.

[stuartcr]

???

[revtown]

"Global warming's a problem" , "Need to avoid another ice age"

Slick's got it covered as usual.

[WayneS]

If he would just stop running his mouth there would be less CO2 making into the upper atmosphere.

The only reason Clinton/Gore et al talk about this and make it seem like such an emergency is to force countries, primarily the United States, to enter into agreements like Kyoto and give gobs of $$.

IF we ever fall for this, it will make the Oil for Food scandal seem like it involved pocket change. This is about the re-distribution of wealth and has nothing to do with climate change.

This is about the re-distribution of wealth and has nothing to do with climate change.

Or national security.

I'd like to know if Hillie shares her husband's national security priorities.

Is global warning more dangerous that al Qaeda, Hillie?

[Carolinamom]

I'm so weary of seeing/hearing every word that falls from Bill Clinton's bitten lips being heralded as pronouncements from on High. Is there...somewhere...a big enough hook to get him OFF the stage?

[mikeybaby]

Global warming is occuring.
Just ask the people at the Koresh compound in Waco.
Oh, scratch that.

[Peach]

There must be a lot of $$ involved for him to make such a stupid statement. Gore's excuse is that he's just nuts.

[Peach]

Yes -- I think we should make sure she has to answer that statement. But what am I talking about. The press won't ask her any hard questions. Not that whether terrorism or global warming is a difficult question. LOL

[mewzilla]

The MSM won't. But the MSM no longer rules the roost. And I betcha John Spencer will ask :)

[ken5050]

He's in Switzerland, she's in SF..no wonder the air in Chappaqua is clean and brisk this fine morning...

[Carolinamom]

LOL! You can enjoy your jogging THIS morning! (P.S. Don't forget..."And you know what I mean." LOL)

[G.Mason]

I suppose we should be thankful that this bloviating mass of degenerate cells is constantly being thrown in our faces by the alphabet media.

It reminds the more sane among us what life in these United States would be like with Hillary and Slick back in the Whitehouse.

[mewzilla]

I wonder how many days Hillie's actually spent in NYS since she's been elected?

[Waco]

Notice how the RATS like to dentify a "problem" which has no immediate solution, (and likely ain't a problem), then conjure up law$, and throw dollar$ at it, kowing it will la$t a looong time?
