Dems Cancel Copenhagen Trip

Dems Cancel Copenhagen Trip



Socializing another huge chunk of the U.S. economy is more important than saving the planet:

Senator John Kerry, Democrat of Massachusetts and chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, told colleagues on Saturday that Democrats could not send a delegation to the United Nations climate change conference in Copenhagen.

“It doesn’t look like we’re going -– not as a delegation,” Mr. Kerry told colleagues as a he left the Senate chamber after a vote on a package of spending measures. “Harry needs the people here on health care.”

Harry is the Senate majority leader, Harry Reid of Nevada, and to say that Mr. Reid needs his caucus members in Washington for the health care debate is an understatement.

Several senators had hoped to attend the conference, including Barbara Boxer of California, the chairwoman of the Environment and Public Works Committee, and many members of her panel.

So it seems like Hanoi John, (hey John, some of us are still waiting for you to issue your military release form)... has come to a conclusion that he is needed more in the Capital for the next week then for him to help champion his global warming support in Copenhagen Denmark. I am sure he is not concerned that his wife and himself might freeze their what ever off as the temperatures will plunge in that city in the next few days. Perhaps he might be worried she might freeze to death if they are caught in a blizzard or their limo was to crap out as the temps dropped into the low teens, as she slugged away on the bottle and slowly let all her heat out. Then again. If she kicks the bucket. Surely he is in store for millions and millions.... then again. Maybe not. Anyway. It seems like as usual anytime the going gets tough, Hanoi John finds excuses to part from the scene.

Global warming used to look like a shoe-in, but Climategate has turned it into a war.

As always, John Kerry spins his boat around and heads away from the shooting as fast as possible.

He will still nominate himself for a global warming medal though.

Sadly you are so right. The young and not so young ladies of Denmark will at least meet their business expenses over the next few weeks. The rest of the world will be raped.

I would suggest. Tried in legal courts of law and given very long prison terms. And that goes along with the many hundreds of all to willing senior scientist, heads of colleges and universities etc., that have gone along with this travesty for the sake of grant monies.

Actually there was a posted thread earlier tonight that there would be record cold weather in Copenhagen awaiting the arrival of Kerry and his entourage.

Perhaps he had the opportunity to read that.

"There is no “Global Warming”"
I for one have known this for some fifteen years plus. My elder very well informed quantum mechanist, petroleum chemist, biochem and physical chem and nuclear magnetic spectroscopist chemist brother and I have had lets say talks over dinners as well well as others in engineering, physics, and chemistry, at Bell Labs long before it was any form of an issue.
It is all pardon my French. Horse shit, not backed by any solid science, as hopefully growing numbers of people are discovering.

I'm aware of the early report for the 17 degree drop, I mentioned it in some other threads, but surely thanks for reminding us all, things are not going well in the land of dikes. What they need is a full blown week long snow blizzard with low temps dropping into the zero range or lower at night.
What the hell. The good people of Canada, upper USA, Asia are all how freezing, why should they remain sheltered.
A storm so bad that zero's plane must be turned around and returned to Andrews AFB would not be a bad idea as well.
The shit heads that should be in jail cells years back must finally be challenged. The scientist that went along with this long term fiasco as well as all the greedy politicians and world makers and yes, many in key industries that will lie through their teeth in advertisements to bulge their private investments. None are in any way honorable in the least.
