The Road to Copenhagen

Cliff Kincaid, December 9, 2009

You don’t need to attend the United Nations climate change conference to know what’s really going on.

Ignoring the fallacies behind the “science” of man-made global warming, a new U.N. report on “climate justice” says the U.S. and other countries owe $24 trillion in “climate debt” to the rest of the world. The report, “Climate Justice for a Changing Planet,” argues that the United States is “historically the largest global emitter” of greenhouse gas emissions and therefore has the biggest “debt” to pay.

Obama should stay home. These people have this bogus meeting all arranged to perform a ritual hanging of the United States, and our apologist in Chief will probably agree with them.

We need to pull our troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan, shut down all foreign aid , drill our own oil ,and see how the world goes without us.

Its how we are ruled today, bullies like Klein threaten us with violence from the misfits and mentally unbalanced. Then this misfit racist Morales in a clear case of stoopidity only wants to burn more carbon, but equitably of course.
