Hopenchangen: The Art Of The Deal

maybe Canada won't follow the US like a puppy after all. here's what a negotiator said about Canadians:

"they're polite, but they thumb their nose at the process".

i'd have it no other way.

Does anyone care what Robert Mugabe thinks of Canada? I'd wager that 95% of the population of Zimbabwe would choose to come here if we'd let them in.

Copenhagen was awesome. Obama came away looking more feckless than usual and it seems like we're not going to cede sovereignty to the UN just yet.

An epic fail for the leftists is a win for us.

"China, the world's largest emitter of greenhouse gases, lauded Sunday the outcome of a historic U.N. climate conference that ended with a nonbinding agreement that urges major polluters to make deeper emissions cuts — but does not require it."

Ya just gotta laugh at that last phrase,"but does not require it"!

This should form the basis of ALL treaties and agreements! I personally can bring "peace" to any war torn part of the world, for a handsome fee, if I can use that phrase in any cease fire agreement.

What a useless waste of time and our money that whole show was!

Mugabe has had a lot of experience raising and using "People's Militias" to deal with any threat to his kleptocracy. Perhaps Obamagabe might find him useful as a consultant.

Here is my favorite quote of the piece.

"Tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets to demand action to cool an overheating planet."

It may be a bit premature to say this, but I believe these twits are going to get their wish and free of charge. The earth is cooling and these fools think global warming is a problem, wait until they see what a cooler planet does.

Population reduction due to lack of food production just for starters.

Between storms and cold weather in Europe and the U.S. over 20 people have frozen to death in the last 2 days . Did some of these people believe it's getting warmer and neglect to take proper precautions ?

Not funny. He probably did.

Obozo was looking for 'shovel ready projects' to get out the rest of that TARP money. Gaia hears and responds.

As demand for energy increases across the globe, it is inevitable the free market will supply new technologies and alternative energy sources as a matter of course. Kyoto, Copenhagen and the like do more harm than good and I am amazed we haven't learned that yet.

If you follow the link to Steyn's site and then hit "lynching polar bears" you will be taken to another great moment in climate calamity. Or just use this link---http://blogs.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/timblair/index.php/dailytelegraph/comments/poleys_lynched/

snow? what snow?

Global warming!! Squawk! Squawk! Global Warming! Squawk!!

The whole world is getting a little of Gaia's judgement on puny human global warming :-)

Hey, don't down-talk Mugabe. He has gone through incredible effort to reduce Zimbabwe's carbon footprint!

Is Coal the WHL team from Cadomin?

~Robert of Ottawa

Nope.... Luscar The Luscar Indians to be more precise.

Sorry but you just reminded me of some family history.

I could not be MORE proud of them.

5 years, kids ,careers,home ownership is the standard option left for the junior loony leftist brigade.

Obongo; just another Chicago bum in subsidized housing, doing what his puppet masters in Chicago and every other commie wants him to do. Stephen Harper is a leader, he is a statesman and it is really to bad he had not been in this position when Britian and US were led by great leaders like Reagan and Thatcher. Today he has to put up with the current roster of idiots from Chavez to Mugabe and a gamut of useless idiots outside the building protesting global warming in freezing temps.

Since you mention the great leader Thatcher, bartinsky, did you know that PM Margaret Thatcher was the one who started this whole CO2 Global Warming mess?
Apparently, she did it because she wanted to break the British Coal Miner's Union and boost support for nuclear power.

The commies leading the Coal Miner's Union, said to their enemy Thatcher, "Yeah, we can disrupt Western Civilization very nicely by taking your CO@ Global Warming idea and weaponizing it!" and since they had all those warm bodies who were fresh out of a protesting job(Coalition for Nuclear Disarmament) from the CND in Britain after the Soviet Politburo voted itself out of existence, the commies pursued the new "Green" program with a vengeance.

I got to hand it to those commies, Verrry adaptable, just like rats and cockroaches.

Too bad PM Thatcher doesn't get the credit she deserves for this whole Climate Crisis mess.
What is it we always say about Leftist ideas?
Something about unintended consequences?

I would remind folks that the cartoon is about President Obama giving away a country so he can get his deal.

Nicola said it best; "it's not funny"

How many will now worry he will indeed sell anyone out to get his way?

It appears that the Big Zero has aquired the AlGore Effect.

Prior to his stop in Copenhagen it snowed like it hasn't snowed since Hans Christian was writing.

Now he comes back home and it dumps all over Washington like it hasn't since the Valley Forge. (Ok I exaggerate, 1778 wasn't nearly as snowy)

China has always said Taiwan is a Chinese province.
The only way Obama could "give Taiwan away" is to openly agree with them.
I don't think he could get away with it.

Over a thousand comments at wuwt. Impressive. People are watching and becomeing engaged.

Have a look at how BBC covers a snow fall in the US.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8423417.stm "Monster eastern US snowstorm melts into sea"

1. all snow melts
2. where does the snow melt to?
3. does this hint at what will happen if snow continues to fall, and it too, melts?

There is no mention in the article of global bla bla bla, only the header alludes to the discredited theory of rising sea levels...
hmmm, is it just me? my bullshit meter seems to be real sensitive this month, or... ?

We have rising sea levels?
Geeze, whatever you do, don't flush the toilet!

Why shouldn't you flush the toilet?
We're running out of water, don'cha know!
Dam!

The fabricated "World Water Crisis" is going to be the next scam/created panic to be glommed-upon by the bedwetters and rent-seekers.

Slowly, we are seeing the propaganda starting to ooze through in the form of TV ads.
