American negotiators are instead homing in on a hybrid agreement — a proposal to blend legally binding conditions from an existing 1992 treaty with new voluntary pledges. The mix would create a deal that would update the treaty, and thus, negotiators say, not require a new vote of ratification.

The word that comes to mind is "sleazy."

He’s gonna need the disciples who followed Jesus.

They were all in one Accord and the size of that car is going to restrict their movements...

I was thinking more like 'little league'.....

...this is unConstitutional.

But since the Congress won’t do anything and some liberal judge will rule that’s it’s okay - well, I guess the rules are for little people anymore. :)

Ever notice the NYT never opens the comments section to these types of upheavals?

“To sidestep that requirement, President Obama’s climate negotiators are devising what they call a “politically binding” deal that would “name and shame” countries into cutting their emissions...”

and the Senate has the ability to nullify just such a deal.

One thing is certain, this is an administration hell bent on playing dirty pool and dealing from the bottom of the deck.

They have zero intention of following the Constitution of “Advise & Consent. As such, The Congress should end this charade.

without congress, he only represents his political party

and the last I checked, political parties are not allowed to make treaties with other countries

it might even be against the law (like that matters these days)

[what's up]

Obama is scrambling to accommodate Steyer before the elections.

Seems like none of these ideas are going anywhere.

Kinda like how Reid passed the ACA.

He took an already passed bill, stripped it of its language and inserted 2500 pages of Obamacare.

Can you get more dictatorial?

He’s going scorched earth with impeachable offenses right before the election, trying to get the Republicans to pull the cord, so that his base gets fired up enough to vote. He’s throwing deep into the end zone on 4th and long with 2 seconds remaining and behind in the game. The Obastard.
