"Stupid Americans."

Pesident Obama’s second term in office has been lacking in big achievements. Background checks for gun purchases didn’t make it through the Senate. Immigration reform isn’t becoming law this Congress, though the president is expected to take executive action on this front. And just last week, Obama’s party took a major drubbing in the midterm elections. But there is one potential second-term achievement that’s taking more and more shape -- on climate change. The big question, however, is whether Obama can keep it. Late last night, the United States and China announced they had “negotiated a sweeping agreement to cut emissions drastically by 2030, a deal that President Barack Obama called a ‘major milestone’ Wednesday at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in Beijing,” NBC News reports. This breakthrough follows the proposal Obama’s Environmental Protection Agency unveiled in June requiring existing power plants to cut their carbon emissions by 30% from 2005 levels by 2030. But as we mentioned yesterday, next year’s GOP-controlled Congress will seek to undermine those EPA rules. As the New York Times adds, “While the agreement with China needs no congressional ratification, lawmakers could try to roll back Mr. Obama’s initiatives, undermining the United States’ ability to meet the new reduction targets.”
Remember, Obama made combating climate change a big part of his second inaugural address. “We will respond to the threat of climate change, knowing that the failure to do so would betray our children and future generations,” he said in that speech. And it’s important to point out that Obama’s second-term actions on the climate -- the EPA rules, the deal with China -- are unilateral actions that can be undone by another president. But make no mistake: This is Obama’s pet issue of his second term.

With Obama, Russia and China are SURE to keep their promises.
B/S. China told him to shove it (after the quit laughing).
Barf.
"Stupid Americans."
Wonder how King Obama is going to fund that new initiative?
NBC helped the coverup of Patent 6904336 on Carbon Credits
which is held by Fannie Mae and the DNC
Don't hold your breath waiting for the MSM to report it
because David Gregory's wife may have been their lawyer.
Sure Chuck.
Actually, they heartily agreed with a big smile. They told him you go ahead and do it now, and we’ll follow suit in ten or twenty years (after we bury your economy).
Oh Lord Foul has a legacy alright, and it is for soaring past jimaaaaaah Cawta as the worst president America has ever had!
I’d call this Obama’s Kellogg–Briand Pact but at least that was dealing with a real issue.
It might be a big win for Obama and the rest of the American haters, but it is a loss for the US. This is the opening salvo of many to come during Obama’s last two years. He intends to take the US down and, so far, the GOP hasn’t shown a willingness to stop him through defunding his programs and agencies.
Lovely. 0bama’s biggest foreign policy triumph is exacting empty promises from people who hold him in open contempt. I’m reminded of Neville Chamberlain waving his scrap of paper to the adoring media in 1938.
Looks like NBC is celebrating the latest blow the Obama regime is making in its campaign to weaken and destroy America.
Same as it ever was.
If the super rich elite and old white rats didn’t own and control ABCNNBCBS and the NY and LA Slimes, the Compost and other fish wraps, the Rat party would have died off a long time ago.
‘President Obama’s second term in office has been lacking in big achievements.’
Theres a reason for that and it has nothing to do w/ Bush or republicans. Why dont liberals just come to peace w/ it? Barry Soetoro is unaccomplished b/c he’s not too bright and lazy.
‘Background checks for gun purchases didn’t make it through the Senate.’
Well, whose fault is that? The senate was run by the dems during that period. So, theyre saying his ideas arent even palatable to his own party?
This article is full of fail...
But wait Barack, I thought the sea levels would go down simply on virtue of your election. Did you lie to us? Are you not the one we’ve been waiting for? Are you a false prophet?
And, do you really think the communists are going to play along with your little game? C’mon.
China and Russia have been working over Obama during this entire trip. Obama doesn’t want to be in the same room with either Putin or Jintao alone, nonetheless the two of them together.
As they say, they cure weak Alinskyism with strong Communism.
LMAO!!!!
THIS is the “legacy?” Global warming?
Good God, are they reaching...
