Associated Press ^ | Dec.4, 2009 | BEN FELLER

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama on Friday abruptly altered the timing of his upcoming appearance at an international climate summit in Copenhagen, hoping to capitalize on steps by India and China and build a more meaningful political accord, a White House official told The Associated Press.

The move means Obama will be at the summit on Dec. 18, considered a crucial period when more leaders will be in attendance, as opposed to his scheduled stop in Denmark on Wednesday on his way to Nobel Peace Prize events in Oslo.

The Goracle must have been burning up the phone lines to Bambi. He’s convinced that The One can carry the day.

Sargozy told Obama that his plan to stop early would be worthless...and he should stop near the end which is the 18th.

Now, the way I see it, he's just going into hiding until he figure how many shovelfuls of sh** he'll need to cover up climate gate.

Go ahead Mr. Obama...Coverups have been known to bring Presidents down.

Betting he'll wind up a no-show on the 18th.

Not good for the good guys. This means that he'll almost certainly sign the US on to some worthless agreement. It'll be up to the US Senate to ignore whatever agreement he signs, no sure thing with this bunch in power.

"The move means Obama will be at the summit on Dec. 18, considered a crucial period when more leaders will be in attendance, as opposed to his scheduled stop in Denmark on Wednesday on his way to Nobel Peace Prize events in Oslo. Obama will now leave for Oslo late Wednesday, attend Nobel events Thursday and return to Washington on Friday. "
So since the 18th IS Friday, does that mean he's canceling the Denmark appearance and returning to Washington?
Can someone tell me what exactly this story says?

Curiouser and curiouser how schedules are being changed at the last minute.

It is one thing for John Q Public to change his/her scheduled stop at a city by a day or so.

It is quite another for TOTUS to alter his schedule.

That’s what it sounds like to me too. He is going to go ahead and sign something before the whole globull warming house of cards comes tumbling down.

They’re probably searching the world over to find one reputable scientist who will say GW is cased by man. When they find that person - they’ll all quickly believe the whole scam - the press will back them up. All the speakers will come to the “madoff GW scam convention” but the truth will still keep coming out... They only have to keep the lies going until legislation is passed that destroys the fabric all economies...

If he does this then he is nuttier than I thought. 59% + of Americans do not believe in the fictious Climate change and as the days go by more and more are finding out how the data was fudged. I guess the dems are about to give up their golden calf? Hopefully this will be political sucide for them as the healthcare bill is quickly becomming.
