To Obama Global Warming is just a way to remove Freedom from peoples of the World

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

I’m waiting for a Republican to simply state that global warming is a scam designed to enrich the pockets of internationalists and domestic leftists while ordinary Americans will pay increased energy costs and jeopardize their standard of living.

The bastard prince will reign.

Will it be a signature achievement like the Iran deal?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Congress needs to put on their man pants and tell the Kenyan that they will NOT RECOGNIZE OR FUND another one of Obama’s so called “DEALS”. This will be a TREATY and therefore it must be approved by the Congress. The Constitution doesn’t recognize “DEALS” made by swindlers. “DEALS” are something Chicago thugs do.

Strung by Congress. Just wait till the creature meets WTP. There might be future lessons in stringing!! Climate change is no different than a woman going thru ‘the change’ Hot/Cold/Hot/Cold and a real witch to deal with. ValJar might be the professor to teach a few of those realities. The entire world is in flames! Heat is just what is expected you DC imbeciles.

Who actually runs the government? Serious question. Who? I honestly don't know. Are any of the people we get pamphlets from in the mail, asking us to vote for them, really who they say they are? Any? If so, how many? A few? A lot? Half? Who are they beholding to? How many are bought and paid for before they enter office? How much influence comes from within the US, and how much from outside? Is it really possible that ‘any child’ can grow up to become President of the US, or is it all about connections and money? I look at the Trump candidacy, and irrespective of whether or not you like him, the fact is that he is putting himself out there for the American public to evaluate, but the establishment of the Republican party is trying to circumvent this process. Is that the way the system now works? Do our opinions actually matter?

Obama appears to think, or maybe is certain, that he can do what he wants, irrespective of those checks and balances we thought were in place. What exactly is the truth?

[sauropod]

I really detest the AP.

“Climate Change” is Lysenkoism for the 21st Century.

"This was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow,and our planet began to heal.

Welcome King Barack "Canute" Obama the Great.....

...Obama issues an Executive Order to the Sun...

....to increase it's magnetic field....

and make a good crop of sunspots before elections in 2016....

(PhysOrg.com) -- Sunspot formation is triggered by a magnetic field, which scientists say is steadily declining. They predict that by 2020 / 25 there may be no remaining sunspots, and the sun may stay spotless for several decades.

The last time the sunspots disappeared altogether was in the 17th and 18th century, and coincided with a lengthy cool period on the planet known as the Little Ice Age....and lasted 400 years.

Good luck surviving with no electricity ...life becomes cold short and brutish

At .04% of the atmosphere, CO2 is not the culprit.

Amen brother. Every time I have a discussion with one of the dimwitted global warming folks, I ask them if they know what % of the earth's atmosphere is CO2. Half don't know and the other half have given answers ranging from 5 to 21%. Then, I play the what-if game. What if it's 1%, do you think mankind can make a difference by "reducing your carbon footprint"? What if its .4%, would reducing the carbon footprint of humans have any impact?

Then when I ask what-if CO2 were only four one-hundredths of one percent, would reducing consumption of oil make any damn difference?

If they still seem interested, I hit them with 95% of the CO2 is in the form of water vapor. That usually blows their mind.

Wait. You mean OTrauma is going out and making deals without involving the Senate or Congress?

He ain't goin' nowhere.

Sure, he'll leave the Presidency.

He's heading for the Secretary-General position of the UN, which he will remake into the King of the World.

Yes, yes, I know. A permanent member nation cannot have one of theirs be SecGen.

But a President used to need to be a US Citizen, and not a Kenyan, right?

[ROCKLOBSTER]

Now just a second.

How do you get CO2 out of H2O?

[Tzimisce]

Mark Steyn said something about our leaders trying to work on what might be the problems of the 22nd century while the real 21st century problems boil out of control.

What exactly is the truth?"

I believe the US Government is controlled by a consortium of very wealthy leftist individuals, wealthy powerful liberal business groups/companies (some of them overseas), liberal lawyers, and racial minority social pressure groups and the liberal American media. The only people who don't have a say in the US government are US citizens who happen to be white conservative and Christians and who happen to be the majority of people in the country.

Well, maybe with the death of the glowbull warmunist leader Maurice Strong today, the enviro faithful will be donning sackcloths and ashes and the Paris talks will be tied up with endless tributes over its remaining time and there will be no time left for negotiating anything http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/maurice-strong-dead-obit-un-1.3341829

The correct word is “hamstringed.”
