Jim Prentice in Question Period today:
Our intentions are very clear: first, a North American approach to combatting greenhouse gas emissions. That is our position. That has been the position of President Obama. And, frankly, that has been the position of their [the opposition] coalition.
New York Times “Dot Earth” blog tonight:
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton has settled on China as an important stop on her first trip abroad in her new job and aides told me that climate and energy will be high on the agenda…
The visit to China meshes with early signals sent recently by President Obama’s nascent energy and climate team about the importance of working with the industrializing giant on these entwined issues…
Todd Stern, the newly created special envoy on climate change for the United States, will be with Mrs. Clinton in China. In an e-mail message, he said a top goal is to end the endless sparring between the two giant sources of greenhouse gases over who needs to do what first.
“Secretary Clinton is keenly aware that the United States — as the largest historic emitter of greenhouse gases — and China — as the largest emitter going forward — need to develop a strong, constructive partnership to build the kind of clean energy economies that will allow us to put the brakes on global climate change,” Mr. Stern said.

All this business around the Global warming business is one big business: Spin and counterspin, adding up to one big ball of yarn. People’s realities are rolled up in this ball of yarn. I think it’s pathetic!
Get a life. Teach your children to respect all things. Get off this mass consumption threadmill and see what really counts. Then come back and see if you have anything to say for yourself.
Kody tells it like it is and is more often than not right about things. For example he was the first around here to see that Nanos had no clothes.
He’s not sycophantic enough and that seems to be where the problem lies.
But to PW’s credit, he still let’s him phone in, which is a good thing.
Personally, and apparently contrary to many readers here, I wish we’d hear from him more often, he seems to have cut back on his posting quite a bit lately.
What’s remarkable,
is that my simply pointing out the taunts, namecalling, and general nastiness directed at me, (in response to my simply stating an opinion or belief free of invective),
by noting the irony of the “tolerance” the left claims to uphold,
is viewed as “trolling”.
In other words, I’m not permitted to state my views in the first place,
and if I point out the intolerant ridicule,
others, and most notably Paul Wells, calls me a “cry baby.”
Sorry Paul, I won’t allow bully tactics and mischaracterizations (pointing out intolerance isn’t “crying”), to disuade my thinking.
Paul Wells,
today’s tolerant progressive media,
shouting down, and name calling, one dissenter at a time.
