Dems Cancel Copenhagen Trip

Dems Cancel Copenhagen Trip



Socializing another huge chunk of the U.S. economy is more important than saving the planet:

Senator John Kerry, Democrat of Massachusetts and chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, told colleagues on Saturday that Democrats could not send a delegation to the United Nations climate change conference in Copenhagen.

“It doesn’t look like we’re going -– not as a delegation,” Mr. Kerry told colleagues as a he left the Senate chamber after a vote on a package of spending measures. “Harry needs the people here on health care.”

Harry is the Senate majority leader, Harry Reid of Nevada, and to say that Mr. Reid needs his caucus members in Washington for the health care debate is an understatement.

Several senators had hoped to attend the conference, including Barbara Boxer of California, the chairwoman of the Environment and Public Works Committee, and many members of her panel.

The guy is a worthless oxygen pirate....and I think deep down..he knows it.

(re juan effing scary)

Beside all the other things he is and is not (is not a person worthy of the oxygen he takes up) - he is a bonafide traitor.

He met with the enemy (v.cong) in Paris three times WHILE SERVING - IN UNIFORM.

That is an act of treason. That should not only have landed him in the brig, but he is is legally not qualified to hold ANY elected office, even dog catcher (which would be above his native abilities.)

That's why we don't/won't see his discharge papers...they're in a lock box with a certain BC?

We're it not for his family friend, teddyBear K., and his pull - starting with the VERY FIRST act of jimmahPeanut head as President to PARDON such pukes, and then subsequent burying of records - we would not have suffered all the subsequent damage of this POS all these years.

Had he made it to POTUS, he was ready to hand us over to the UN and One World Gov't.

We got a few years reprieve. Now we're on the brink again. And now, we fight or live as serfs with every move dictated.

No in betweens left.

what the good folks of Canada and the upper United States experience every year and it gets worse

Oh yeah. Hunkered down by my wood stove. the 11 year sun spot cycle that's the cold half of the 22 year solar maximum/minimum cycle, is stretching beyond the average 11 years this time. I am not looking forward to it here. (However, up here in the northern part of the state, it's winters like this, along with the distance from the tinsel cities, that keep the herd-instinct libRats at bay, so...)

from last winter:

"Snow Tunnel" up on the border. That's a truck down there.

Wish I could dump all this goreBull warming in the goricle's yard.

I'm going to email my Copenhagen friend for a weather update - let's think COLD - BLIZZARD - ICE SCULPTUR POLAR BEAR BURRIED, not melted.

This to reflect their extinction of course. Wonder what they’ll use to melt that down....

They'll probably try to breathe on it first, since CO2 produces all that heat. /sarc

And let us not forget those that control the scientist. They fashion the modern world as they choose, over time.

I don’t know if he even carries a business card. And I have had little communication with him over the past few years. In fact I have not even emailed or phoned him on the AGW scam. My comments regarding him where past tense. Say four years plus and earlier on. But I do respect his opinions on these issues.

As always, John Kerry spins his boat around and heads away from the shooting as fast as possible.

I think you just Swift-boated the Senator who once served in Viet Nam.

Good on ya!!

Hopefully TERAYYYZZAA has seen the light, and cut Hanoi’s Premier War Hero, Ensign John F*****G KERRY, out of every nickel and penny that is Her’s!! I’ll bet the PUTZ is totally cut out of Her WILL! especially after he treated her like Whale Poop when he thought he was going to become “EMPEROR LURCH!”

I agree with you totally, but think using the term “CLOWN” is a disservice to Clowns! Lurch is nothing more than a Raging Lunatic and MORON who is a TRAITOR to AMERICA with absolutely No Morals or Redeeming Character!! In esssence, Lurch is a Slimeball and a Male(Alleged?)WHORE!! and that is being polite.......

It's time for the world environmental movement to demand teleconferencing replace all international assemblies due to the emissions incurred through events like the Copenhagen, the G-20, the UN, etc. Obama could have set an example by accepting his Nobel Prize electronically rather than invade Northern Europe with a fleet of jets carrying him and his entourage. The same formula could be applied to the U.S. Congress. They could stay in their states and districts while legislating via teleconferencing. The transportation and housing savings would be large not to mention curtailing the culture of elitism that has grown around living in DC.
