Funny how they Boo the one person in the administration that leans toward their views and the only high ranking American official that even bothered to show up at that sham of a conference.

I suppose that we have to stop financing these morons and we also have to boot UN out of USA.

Mars is undergoing climate change too and the Martians don't even have SUV's. Could the Sun and the natural fluctuations of planet warming and cooling have something to do with it? Nah, it wouldn't fit the agenda of the extreme leftist eco-wackos who want total U.N. control of everyone's lives.

Of course, Powell doesn't have the balls to call them the batch of snivelling liars that they are.

That's why he's a diplomat...

When the noise abated, Powell replied: "I have heard you", breaking off from his prepared speech to the gathering, which is aimed at enriching poor countries while saving the environment.

Notice how Reuters distorts and misquotes Mr. Powell. His actual response was: "Thank you, I have now heard you. I ask that you hear me." By skipping the second part of his remark, it gives the impression that he was somehow enlightened by the hecklers' screaming. Very typical of Reuters.
