The President of the United States has no more legal right to sign a treaty that turns legislative, executive, and judicial functions of our national government over to the United Nations than he has to declare the United States an Islamic Republic and its people henceforward subject to Sharia. Nevertheless, that would be the effect of the proposed United Nations Climate Change Treaty awaiting Mr. Obama's signature in Copenhagen this coming December.
The proposed treaty authorizes the establishment of a "government" to transfer wealth from industrial nations to non-industrial nations in payment of a "climate debt" which, the treaty declares, the industrial nations owe on account of burning carbon-based fuels. The newly created international government is to have the authority to decide issues relating to carbon emissions in signatory nations, the power to levy what amounts to carbon taxes on signatory nations, and the power to enforce its levies without reference to the will of the people who live in the signatory nations.

“In the meantime, don’t forget to hold your Senators’ feet to the fire on this issue. We don’t need another national trauma, and we can avoid one by making sure our Senators withhold their consent to the proposed Climate Change Treaty, if and when Mr. Obama signs and submits it. “
We need to make a LOT of noise about this.
So if ZERO signs it can we start calling him -1?
“The proposed treaty authorizes the establishment of a “government” to transfer wealth from industrial nations to non-industrial nations in payment of a “climate debt”
Well, we don’t have a thing to worry about since we no longer have any wealth, and have transferred our industry to other nations.
So, who’s gonna pay us?
Gee, I wonder just where these nations might be located. In Africa maybe? How about Mexico? Even Somalia? Huh?
Below zero? Most of the countries in the UN would gladly vote for taking money from productive countries and giving it to them.
Let's all live in mud huts, burn cow chips for heat, and eat road kill.
But this whole Climate Change Industry is a blatant hoax! What are our politicians getting out of this industry? Anybody have a clue?
