Obama to tell 10,000 in Poland about Science

LAST year they met in Bali, tomorrow they meet in Poland, again under the direction of the United Nations, again about 10,000 people will gather to progress the global warming agenda. In particular, they will discuss policy options for averting a ‘climate crisis’.
According to Christopher Booker writing in the UK’s Telegraph:
“They will see a video of Mr Obama, in only his second major policy commitment, pledging that America is now about to play the leading role in the fight to “save the planet” from global warming.
Mr Obama begins by saying that “the science is beyond dispute and the facts are clear”. “Sea levels,” he claims, “are rising, coastlines are shrinking, we’ve seen record drought, spreading famine and storms that are growing stronger with each passing hurricane season.”
Far from the science being “beyond dispute”, we can only deduce from this that Mr Obama has believed all he was told by Al Gore’s wondrously batty film An Inconvenient Truth without bothering to check the facts.
Each of these four statements is so wildly at odds with the truth that on this score alone we should be seriously worried.”
How did we get to this sorry state of affairs?
I would be much happier if Mr Obama didn’t claim to know anything about “the science”. Why doesn’t he just say: “I am a lawyer by training, but I have been lead to believe sea levels are rising.”?
Why does he, and every other politician, claim to understand the science of climate change?
“How did we get to this sorry state of affairs? ”
I agree, why is so much journalism these days based on beating up strawmen and lies?

Sheer fabrication, that is, lies. Booker has no idea how Obama has come to his conclusions.
Perhaps we could also hold Vuclav Klaus to the same standards that you have set for Obama, Jennifer?
SJT,
Vaclav Klaus presents mostly data from the Czech Republic in his new book. And I don’t think there is anything on sea levels. Also, he is not suggesting my country, or any other country, introduce a new tax or anything else. In short, what is your problem with Klaus?
Klaus is not a scientist, but he is telling people, not just that AGW theory is wrong, but that it is some kind of communist style plot to take over the world.
Go Jen, give us your four statements. And maybe your odds on your actually conveying the truth (old OED = ‘quality of being true or accurate or honest or sincere or loyal or accurately shaped or adjusted’. Sorry that many criteria - perhaps if you get a pass on four will do. We seekers of truth are not hard markers; I liked the last two tho - that resonated on this altar of outliers - real or contrived. And I dont just mean the data.
Bazza, Do you have an issue with my post, or my comments about the book by Klaus? You suggest I am somehow misleading readers, the least you could do is provide a specific example.
Can’t edit posts here. Try again.
Klaus is not a scientist, but he is telling people, not just that AGW theory is wrong, but that it is some kind of communist style plot to take over the world.
In the case of Obama, he has made statements on the science, but Booker has no idea what these statements are based on. He has merely fabricated an attribution.
The legacy of the last USA election, it’s very easy to make idiot voters out of ignorant people. Why ruin the fun.
Obama lies, get used to it on a large scale.
“Klaus is not a scientist, but he is telling people, not just that AGW theory is wrong, but that it is some kind of communist style plot to take over the world.”
Thats pretty much it. Since there is absolutely no science behind it whatsoever we have to go looking for other motives to this ongoing fraud. The thing about Barry Soetoro is its no use arguing with this fellow. The main thing is to get this undocumented alien to step down before he takes the oath. Whereupon he will be an usurper and the basic nature of the US will change.
See SJT. You are a liar. And you are willing to keep lying about this science fraud no matter what. Why? Its because you are and extreme leftist. Thats what this movement is. So “Obama” is just going to make a tape and lie flat out same as you do.
So SJT, can you please explain Wong’s backpeddling or is that a whiff electoral fear I detect?

And what of the question asked of on Daily Reckoning 28/11/08……..
“……However while you are successfully championing the destruction of myths such as fiat currency, paper generated wealth based on mathematical modelling and the lack of common sense in our governments, can you start debunking the ‘climate change’ modelling that has governments around the world girding the loins of the taxpayer for more spurious spending…..
With kind regards
Robert S.
The science behind climate change is beyond the scope of your editors knowledge……But cheerful scepticism is always a good approach to any large theory”
“In the case of Obama, he has made statements on the science….. ” Hmmmmmm.
