With 20,000 delegates, advocates and journalists jetting to Copenhagen for planet Earth's last chance, the carbon footprint of the global warming summit will be the only impressive consequence of the climate change meeting.
Its organizers had hoped it would produce binding caps on emissions, global taxation to redistribute trillions of dollars and micromanagement of everyone's choices.
China, nimble at the politics of pretending that is characteristic of climate change theater, promises only to reduce its "carbon intensity" carbon emissions per unit of production. So China's emissions will rise.
Barack Obama, understanding the histrionics required in climate change debates, promises that U.S. emissions in 2050 will be 83% below 2005 levels. If so, 2050 emissions will equal those in 1910, when there were 92 million Americans. But there will be 420 million in 2050, so Obama's promise means that per capita emissions then will be about what they were in 1875. That. Will. Not. Happen.
Disclosure of e-mails and documents from the Climate Research Unit in Britain a collaborator with the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reveals some scientists' willingness to suppress or massage data and rig the peer review process and the publication of scholarly work.

That is an amazing view of cause and effect. Explain to me how post '65 immigration caused Teddy Roosevelt's progressive politics, Wilson's progressive agenda, FDRs progressive agenda and the entire communist movement starting before 1900. I think your problem is you're a nut.
This is just an obersvation...yesterday my husband and I went to a Mercy Me concert in Greenville, TX. This town is about 1 hour Northeast of where we live, which is a suburb of Dallas, TX. Anyway, I haven’t been to Greenville in over twenty years and was surprised at how much of the town was Hispanic. We were in an older part of town, but I was still a bit surprised to see all the taquerias and Mexican laundromats. I feel we are losing our identity as Americans and splintering into all these groups because of immigration (illegal and legal) and “diversity” and other such nonesense and insanity.
Will everybody stop with this 2010 bullsh*t. No one is going to repeal any of Obamas laws. We’re screwed.Cap and Trade , Immigration , Health Care will all pass regardless of what you or any other American wants. We have been over thrown ..
Its a dumb as “Sarah will save us in 2012. Are you all for real? 2012 will not even hold a legit election. The time to act was the past 6 months before it got this bad. Best we could do was some harmless tea parties so we deserve what we get.Welcome to the 3rd worls toilet we allowed to happen .
OOhhhO tea parties sure scared them ...by 2010 it will be way too late . Elect who Republicans to replace the Dems ?So what . You see a big difference any more?
Notice the ‘religious’ implication in the accusation of that word ‘deniers’? This hoax has been created and settled by the ‘gods’ of the left. And what shall be of those that would deny their religion?
I think it just MIGHT be something else!
THAT's the problem - not immigration ledgal OR illegal!
We have GOT to quit SUBSIDIZING SLOTH and BASTARDY and LAZINESS!!
45,000,000 pieces of tissue agree with you!
As if carbon dioxide wasn’t bad enough, now you want to justify these torrents of dihydrogen oxide pouring into our delicate atmosphere! All for greedy power companies!
Maniac! Don’t you have a conscience at all?
And YOU, FRiend, are a poster child for your own criticism.
Have you checked out just how many legal immigrants go on welfare?
Do that and come back, K?
Reason 1: You can't stop all immigration. To think otherwise is to live in a fantasy world.
Reason 2: It gives citizens a solid legal and moral foundation to oppose illegals, because there is a legal alternative, and we believe in the rule of law in this country.
Reason 3: Legal immigrants tend to be good, upstanding, self-supporting citizens who are GRATEFUL to be citizens and who LOVE the USA. They are here because they WANT to be Americans, not just because they were blessed to be born here. (Many of us are both, but many are not.) We WANT more citizens like that.
If you believe immigration is harmful to the country, feel free to lead the way and take yourself along with all your relatives and leave. After all, that's how YOU got here.
My post #40 is embarassing because of the spelling errors. I pray you all know that it was late and I was tired. LOL. CO
I didn’t see your post last night as I had already gone to bed but you are saying what I have been saying for ages. NOBODY but NOBODY wants to beleive that this won’t be turned around at the polls. It wont’t. Does anybody in their right mind think that the Obama adminsitration and all its evil minoions have not thought of this. There WILL be SOMETHING happen. ACORN will have a HUGE part in it but also Obama can create a crisis, declare Martial Law, suspend elections and there you have it. Has ANY TYRANT EVER allowed a free vote if they are going to lose their closest supporters? NO. Has any tyrant ever been removed PEACEFULLY? NO!! You get the rest. CO
I thought oxide was a powder?
( I would really like to keep the coal in the ground instead of selling it to the chinese)
My alternative to coal is using nuclear energy.(Hell why not,our government sells it to Iran anyway.And they onsell it to Nth. Korea to make bombs and threaten the U.S. in order to get money and food so they don’t have to produce anything and contribute to carbon pollution.)
It’s a vicious circle,something akin to a cat chasing it’s tail.
right on the ball my friend...
