Only idiots listen to these "leaders"
By Alan Caruba
Not long ago U.N. Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon, told everyone they only had a few weeks in order to save the Earth from "climate change" and this week it's the Prime Minister of Great Britain, Gordon Brown.
Ever since he was Vice President and a defeated candidate for the presidency, Al Gore has been telling people the Earth is doomed.
President Obama talks about climate change — remember when it used to be global warming? — and will no doubt sign the treaty coming out of a "climate" conference in Copenhagen in December. The real problem will be whether the Senate will ratify it because, if it does, the U.S. Constitution will be nullified in favor of a global government.
Ever since the first United Nations conference on "global warming" the only goal has been to establish a global government so that the "leaders" could grow wealthy while the rest of mankind is treated like cattle.
Why would anyone believe anything as preposterous as the claims being made regarding global warming or climate change?
Consider what happens when climate and natural events occur? If it's a drought, people have to flee to find sources of water. If it's a flood, people have to flee to avoid being drowned. If it's a hurricane, they often have to evacuate and, even if they don't, their homes can be flattened by the winds. Anybody remember Hurricane Katrina?
If a lightning strike sets off a forest fire, people have to get away from it. If a blizzard hits a city or a rural area, people have to wait for the roads to be cleared. If a mudslide occurs, those in its path get killed.
For the past ten years the Sun has moved into a cycle in which it is virtually free of sunspots; magnetic storms on its surface. In that time, the Earth has been cooling and in October, early autumn, parts of this nation and other places around the world are getting snow. Overall, the temperatures are falling and breaking records that have existed for a century or more.
Why then is a climate change conference based on claims of "global warming" even being held? Answer: Because it has nothing to do with the climate and everything to do with the destruction of the right of local people exercising local control over their lives through elections.
The further away from the source of government, the less control people have. This was the reason the U.S. Constitution cedes most governing power to the States and puts limits on federal power. Those limits have been steadily eroded since the middle of the last century.
Imagine, now, decisions being made about your life, your choices, by unelected bureaucrats in some far-off place, completely protected from public opinion.
A YouTube video of Lord Christopher Monckton, former science advisor to British PM Margaret Thatcher, addressing a recent event at Bethel University in St. Paul, MN, has gone "viral" as people share it with friends, family, and colleagues.
In his speech, he says of the Copenhagen climate change treaty that "a world government is going to be created. The word 'government' actually appears as the first of three purposes of the new entity. The second purpose is the transfer of wealth from the countries of the West to third world countries, in satisfaction of what is called, coyly, 'climate debt' because we've been burning CO2 and the haven't"
"How many of you think that the word 'election' or 'democracy' or 'vote' or 'ballot' occurs anywhere in the 200 pages of that treaty? Quite right, it doesn't appear once."
"And the trouble is this; if that treaty is signed, your Constitution says that it takes precedence over your Constitution and you can't resign from that treaty unless you get agreement from all the other state parties — and because you'll be the biggest paying country, they're not going to let you out of it."
"They are about to impose a communist world government on the world."
Who do you trust? Ban Ki-moon? Gordon Brown whom most of the British will replace at their next election? Tony Blair, a former British PM who wants to be the next president of the European Union? Former President Bill Clinton? His former Vice President, Al Gore? President Barack Hussein Obama? The many CEOs of corporations who want a piece of the climate change pie? The financial markets that want to trade in "carbon credits" instead of equities backed up by something of actual value?
Or none of them because they all will be running the new world government, because they have all been lying about climate change for years, because they don't care about the United States, the United Kingdom, or any of the other free nations that will be subject to the great gray army of bureaucrats who will kneel before them.
Only idiots listen to and believe these "leaders"!
They are the same kind of "leaders" that, in the last century, dragged Europe into war twice, destroying its economies and destroying its cities and peoples. Ditto for the Empire of Japan during WW2.
They are the same kind of "leaders" that foisted communism on Russia in 1917 until in 1991 it finally failed of its own dead weight.
These are the same present-day "leaders" who think they can "negotiate" with crazy Islamic fanatics who can't wait to get their hands on nuclear weapons.
Who cleaned up the mess those former leaders left behind in World War II? Americans. Whose dollar is being destroyed by a President that has foisted more debt on the nation in nine months than all previous presidents combined? Americans.
Whose lives, dreams, and hopes are going to be destroyed by the present administration and Congress rushing to "reform" the nation's healthcare system, the best in the world, and to enact a huge energy tax via cap-and-trade? Americans.
Who will send U.S. representatives to Copenhagen and who will sign that horrid treaty?
It has the putrid odor of treason.
