[Iran Press TV] President B.O. is working to create a new international climate change accord that would get other nations to reduce their carbon emissions, but in a way that would not require the deal to be ratified by the Senate.
I'm waiting for some press secretary to explain how the U.S. can be bound by an 'agreement' that hasn't been ratified by the Senate. Not that I expect Skippy to offer anything remotely decent, but it will be entertaining to watch the White House press corps swallow the lie whole...
Obama's climate team is putting together a "politically binding" deal to "name and shame" nations to cut their emissions, according to The New York Times ...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... Continued on Page 49

Such a deal is still likely to be very controversial in the United States, and talk of the unusual agreement comes months before a midterm election, where the Senate majority is in play.
Proving once again that Champ's understanding of domestic political impacts is on a par with his understanding of foreign relations and international diplomacy. Welcome to the theater of the absurd.

So what. Without Senate ratification, it won't be legally binding. Just like the Kyoto Protocol. Empty gestures and irrelevant symbolism are all the left is any good at anyway.
Aside from undoing all the hard, real, actual work done by their tribal enemies, that is.

It is easy to assume Obama is stupid. This is nothing but a "gesture", nothing more. But we do have a President of the United States who really has no respect for the design of the American System, its Institutions, and ultimately for the character of its common people.
Obama isn't stupid, but he isn't your friend either. You people made a BIG mistake with electing the Messiah. You have gotten what you deserve. Eat your peas.

This is like Clintons arsenic levels executive order. Unnecessary but it allowed the left to claim Bush was pro-arsenic when he removed the potentially economically damaging law.

All Obozo is doing these days is fundraising. So this is just a fundraising tactic, to fleece the leftie rubes. Like a televangelist telling viewers they'll be saved if they donate all their money. A garden variety con artist, who will presumably abscond with a goodly chunk of the sums collected. The sooner the better.

He can do that if he desires, but where will he get the $$ to implement? Assuming the House finds 2 balls to rub together, they could create budgetary legislation that stipulated where funds went and this POS shrivels and dies on the vine.
Of course finding said balls is the first step.

On O's part it is delusional thinking. He is playing to one or more of the 8-ball organizations in his base. He has become totally irrelevant in foreign policy, and he is headed for the same thing domestically. He has pi$$ed off a lot of supporters and his base is shrinking too, exept the Kool Aid drinkers.
Everything he touches turns to sh*t, like a scatological King Midas.

A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
