A document accidentally left on a European hotel computer and passed to the Guardian reveals the US government's increasingly controversial strategy in the global UN climate talks.
Titled Strategic communications objectives and dated 11 March 2010, it outlines the key messages that the Obama administration wants to convey to its critics and to the world media in the run-up to the vital UN climate talks in Cancun, Mexico in November. (You can read the document text below).
Top of the list of objectives is to: "Reinforce the perception that the US is constructively engaged in UN negotiations in an effort to produce a global regime to combat climate change." It also talks of "managing expectations" of the outcome of the Cancun meeting and bypassing traditional media outlets by using podcasts and "intimate meetings" with the chief US negotiator to disarm the US's harsher critics.
But the key phrase is in paragraph three where the author writes: "Create a clear understanding of the CA's [Copenhagen accord's] standing and the importance of operationalising ALL elements."
This is the clearest signal that the US will refuse to negotiate on separate elements of the controversial accord, but intends to push it through the UN process as a single "take it or leave it" text. The accord is the last-minute agreement reached at the chaotic Copenhagen summit in December. Over 110 countries are now "associated" with the accord but it has not been adopted by the 192-nation UN climate convention. The US has denied aid to some countries that do not support the accord.

Just a little peak into the community organizer’s alinskyite strategy.
Climate change talks yield small chance of global treaty
************************************EXCERPT*************************************
The outgoing head of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, Yvo de Boer, said there was no chance of reaching a final deal by November in Cancun, Mexico the next time world leaders will meet to hammer out the a follow-up to the Kyoto protocol.
"The Americans do not want a second round of Kyoto. It is very possible we will see two agreements emerging from Cancun," he said.
“bypassing traditional media outlets”
I love the contempt Obama has for the MSM. It nearly compares to mine.
And ignore anything :
November is ours.
"You can't take 3 from 2 so you look at the four in the ten's place. You regroup and make 3 tens and ten ones which you add to the 2 to get twelve ones and three from twelve is nine...." And on it goes to make a fairly simple concept so difficult that "only a child can do it."
In the case you have outlined, "only the indoctrinated can do it."
Hey Chrissy Mathews, that is your side talking. They want a regime - makes your leg tingle, doesn't it.
“A document accidentally left on a European hotel computer and passed to the Guardian reveals the US government’s increasingly controversial strategy in the global UN climate talks.”
Accidentally, my butt!
They are going to Cancun in November, is that because they know its going to be too cold to do elsewhere. They probably don’t want the pictures of blizzard conditions clouding the issue.

He’s not my President.
Nope, nothing to see here, folks. Move along.
later
Damn,...that might be a classic.
