Copenhagen all about 'American money'

Former congressman: Obama still could make many happy By Bob Unruh Posted: December 19, 2009 ~ 12:50 am Eastern © 2009 WorldNetDaily A former Texas congressman whose work included efforts to clamp down on America's borders, free up gun purchases and protect human life contends the massive conference in Copenhagen had little to do with global warming and everything to do with doling out American money. Steve Stockman, who was in the Danish capital for the two-week event, told WND in an interview from the conference, "We're over here trying to dissuade any kind of agreement that would give away American sovereignty, which is what it's all about." He said members of the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow boarded a Greenpeace ship in the harbor to unfurl a banner announcing it was a "Ship of lies." He also addressed events sponsored by CFACT at the Copenhagen summit. He told WND conference participants appeared to have one issue on their agenda: obtaining promises of American money for themselves. "It was about transferring the wealth of taxpayers," he said, noting Obama doesn't actually need any sort of international "treaty" to do that. He cited the $250 million the World Bank, of which the U.S. is a major supporter, agreed to grant North Vietnam to cut carbon dioxide. "I didn't know Vietnam had the ability to generate much carbon dioxide," he told WND. But he noted from his perspective the conference's disintegration appeared to stem from the fact "America hasn't ponied up enough money." "This has nothing to do with science," he said. "We've talked to [protesters.] They don't know anything about climate change." READ FULL STORY >
