Obama retreats on climate change

SINGAPORE — President Barack Obama and other world leaders agreed today that next month’s much-anticipated climate change summit will be merely a way station, not the once hoped-for end point, in the search for a worldwide global warming treaty.

The 192-nation climate conference beginning in three weeks in Copenhagen had originally been intended to produce a new global climate-change treaty. Hopes for that have dimmed lately. But comments by Obama and fellow leaders at a hastily arranged breakfast meeting here on the sidelines of an Asia-Pacific summit served to put the final nail in any remaining expectations for the December summit.

In the US, Manmade Global Warming is declining in importance because of decade long cooling and recently published climate science by MIT’s Dr. Richard Lindzen and Dr. Roy Spencer, who have shown that the IPCC models are WRONG, and that the temperature forecast by them is grossly in error.

Democrats do this. They whip some non-issue up into a frenzy, try to create a panic, heroically show up with the elixir and ride that wave of popularity into office.

Al Gore tried it with global warming and failed. Now President Obama is trying it with health care, and so far he’s seeing lukewarm results at best.

And to my "assistant" above, this is not the first time in our planet’s history that the glaciers have receded. While you’re pointing that out, can you also discuss the fact that farmland is being revealed as the Greenland ice sheet melts?
