Oh haven’;t you heard? Those emails were taken out of context. You know we are just too stupid to understand that they were fake but acurate! *sarcasm*

Hey, at least 7-11 clerks and motel operators WORK for a living. Unlike Railroad Boy.

Absolutely true. Just for once, I'd like to see one of them actually try doing a nine-to-five.

>> What are these people on AUTO-PILOT?

Not any more! Auto-pilot was before the CRUd was leaked. Auto-pilot called for this hopenchangen conference to be about setting up a framework for agreement, with the Western tax-ectomy to happen next year (bad economy dontcha know). They were in no real hurry to set up world government because they figured they had it in the bag.

But since the leak, they’ve had to switch off autopilot, take manual control and ram that freaking throttle to the firewall. They have to get binding agreement NOW NOW NOW because they know darn well that if they don’t they may never get another chance.

I wonder if flop-sweat from a vegetarian smells less disgusting than flop-sweat from a beefeater like Algore. I’m glad I’m not working the laundry service at the Copenhagen hotel where these rats are holed up.

With any luck, we MAY get to see a couple of ‘em doing five-to-ten, with Butch Badass for a cellmate. :-)

Bearing in mind that the issue is based on the central deception that the life-giving gas carbon dioxide is a “pollutant”, behind the push to create this multi-trillion dollar industry is a vast nexus of influence, at or near the heart of which – it is emerging – is the chairman of the UN’s IPCC, Dr Rajendra Kumar Pachauri.

Carefully cultivating the image of the concerned “scientist”, he has on the back of the global warming hype not only been able to amass a considerable personal fortune (about which he is extraordinarily shy) but has also built a powerful global organisation under the brand-name “TERI”, as the front for his lobbying and power-broking activities.

And, as one might expect, part of the Pachauri empire is a branch office in Washington DC, based at 1101 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, within sight of the Capitol. Called TERI-NA (The Energy and Resources Institute, North America), it was set up as a “501(c)(3) company” (non-profit) in 1990, it is not even very discrete in its objectives, telling us that:

Its activities have centred around conducting research and organizing workshops/conferences to sensitize the decision-makers in North America to developing countries’ concern about energy and environment.
With Dr Pachauri as its president, it is being headed by a United Nations official, supposedly an impartial public servant, in charge of advising government on climate change. What is stunning, therefore, is to see the number of oganisations which are paying fees (sponsorship) to Pachauri’s Washington operation.

US readers, for instance, might be intrigued to learn that their tax dollars take a four-way hit. No less than four US government agencies pay into Pachauri’s pot, the US Agency for International Development, the US Department of Energy and US Environment Protection Agency. plus the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, a US Department of Energy National Laboratory, which also pays a contribution.

They are joined by the Norwegian Royal Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Canadian International Development Agency. We also have the World Bank and the World Bank Institute listed.

Indirectly, US taxpayers take another hit, being the major bankrollers of the United Nations. Four UN agencies contribute to the pot: the United Nations Development Programme, the United Nations Development Programme (GEF), the United Nations Office for Project Services and (strangely) the United Nations, Procurement Division, Missions and Project Procurement Service (MPPS).
