Trump is exposing the truth of what we’ve always known. There is only one party in Washington. They are engaged in a charade to make the public believe there is a real democracy.

Let’s hang this horse collar on Mitch McConnell and see how quickly he may find his depends are filling up

Say what you will about McConnell, he has stood firm on his pledge to block Obamas stated desire to name a new SCOTUS judge.

For that alone we have to be grateful for the rest of our lives.

Maybe even our children's lifetimes.

a document that can’t be enforced is not valid

Obama is preening amongst the styrafoam columns again

The boy in the white house is an international joke

That may be true to today but we still have until the lame duck session is over with. To me it goes with a saying I’ll never forget from my military days. “It only takes one Oh Sh*t to wipe out a whole boatload of atta-boys”.

In my recollection, he is on the wrong side of the totals column.

We went through this with Kyoto. Bubba signed off and the entire senate voted against it.

Where in the hell is the republican party and why are they not speaking out about this travesty?

Damn, they are on vacation. I will wait for their non-response.

No they won’t be closing their factories.

Obama promised to have the USA (you and me) pay for the modernization of those factories.

In other words, China will produce all the solar panels (they keep the jobs) and we will subsidize the purchase and installation of those panels.

It is a win win for China and a lose lose for the USA.

BBC article is typical liberal bs. This is what the article says about China’s “ratification”
Members of China’s National People’s Congress Standing Committee adopted “the proposal to review and ratify the Paris Agreement” on Saturday morning at the end of a week-long session.

Iow, China has agreed to REVIEW the proposal for them to ratify it. As far as America, no ratification without 2/3 Senate approval.

Because they All went home on Vacation to count the Bribe money that was delivered to them.

Most likely the deal is US cuts emissions and gives money to China to pretend to cut emissions.

Obola is trying to evade the clear constitutional requirement for treat ratification requiring a 2/3 vote of support in the US Senate.

I have to ask again, what is the other hand doing?

They will not get my form of payment this November.

Any think that the republicans will play nice with Trump is delusional.

That? That doesn’t count. Privileged white men wrote that. Some of them owned slaves. It’s a racist document.
