Not content with his humiliation at Copenhagen this past September, President Obama will be traveling again to the Danish capital in December to attend the U.N. COP15 Climate Change Conference. This agreement would commit the United States to punitive and expensive greenhouse gas regulations dictated by the United Nations without recourse.
COP stands for "Conference of the Parties" and the December Copenhagen conference will be the 15th under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), hence COP15. According to their website, it will be one of the largest conferences ever held outside the New York or Geneva headquarters, with an anticipated attendance of over 10,000 people, including governmental representatives from 189 countries, industry groups, and other non-governmental organizations.
The theme of the December 7 - 18 conference is "Hope," so perhaps Mr. Obama will have more luck this time. Instead of soliciting the International Olympic Committee with trite cliché and no payoffs, he will be doing something much easier: selling out our country. After all, ceding power, relinquishing billions in U.S. tax dollars and destroying U.S. economic competitiveness is a pretty easy sell to the countries that will benefit, and he has had a lot of practice doing the same thing here at home. He will have a hard time screwing this one up.

How much wealth can the UN tax from John Galt?
“Hello Mr FReeper, I'm from the UN office of global tax collections.” “We would like to see your books and licenses?”
FO!
It’s like the old saw about wealth distribution: if you truly enacted it and then left people to their own devices, within a few short years the same people will be rich and the same people poor.
The same with this one-world crap. Try and push it through and there will be so much rebellion and such a push for secession that in no time our old world will be back with the same go-getters in charge, just with a lot of blood, sweat, and tears suffered to get it back.
All the slackers who run things now? Build bigger jails to put them in!
