    That seems to be the growing sentiment inside the city's Bella Conference Center, where officials, environmentalists and even delegates to the international climate conference began streaming out Friday evening. What began with excitement and anticipation two weeks ago ended Friday night with disappointment and anger for thousands.

    "This is a sad day for my country," said Mama Konate, chief delegate from the West African nation of Mali. "We have worked very hard to reach this agreement. And now it seems over. Without a deadline, I don't know if we will ever finish."

    The conference, the largest of its kind, attracted scientists, activists and human rights supporters from every corner of the globe, who believe that without a climate accord limiting greenhouse gases, glaciers will melt, oceans will rise and the weather will go so warm it could wipe out 50 percent of the Earth's species. Until Friday, they saw Copenhagen as their last chance to stop it.

    "You can scapegoat the process. That wasn't it. It was the unwillingness of people to move around big issues: China on verification, the U.S. on deeper emission cuts," said the head of an NGO that does relief work in Africa.

    "Judging by the proceedings and the obvious gulf that remains, this is dead anything short of a miracle."

    I hope its dead.
    I feel we should praise God..... cause surely this developement is an answer to the prayers of many who perceived the dishonesty of this premise (whether it could be proved scientifically or not) as a contridiction to the providence of God in and through his creation. He gave man significance, made in his image, a soul, .... but without God we have none. Human kind who don't believe in God or only marginally believe are inclined to think too much of themselves and give themselves too much credit for being more than they are.

    Unfortunately, schemes such as this have a way of temporarily appearance of 'going away' while their forces and co-conspirators tedious work at rebuilding their strength and designing new ways to prove their point and resurrect their issues. Already, for untold years..... at least since the mid 1990's, the kids in public schools and higher education..... and those watching PBS as well as MSM, have been endoctrinated in global warming.... it wont go away easily, and for many of them..... their minds have already established it as fact. It is nearly impossible to change a mindset.... because few people are willing to invite challenge and do the work it takes to review and honestlly eliminate other debate or change their minds and admit a mistake.

    If all the money put into the special arrangements for this meeting in Denmark.... transportation, expenses of the meeting, expenses of individual participants....... Almost all of Africa could have been provided with wells and clean water which is the greatest need of the people in those undeveloped or underdeveloped areas.

    Delaying something doesn't help. It will only make it worse. They need to put aside differences and work towards the goal. From top to bottom. Finishing it for sure.

    Finish what?

    Destroying capitalism, freedom, and enterprise?
    Stealing money from one set of nations and giving it to another?
    Building a ridiculous house of cards based on fraud and junk science?

    Not everyone I know understands climate change. But most people do know hypocrisy and power-grabbing when they see it.

    Keep in mind...these are morons that told us...

    "Our planet has a fever." (Algore)
    "We have fifty days to save the planet." (Gordon Brown)
    "Global warming is a fact. There is no doubt." (Barack Obama)

    So...what do they do?

    They charter so many planes that they begin park them in neighboring Norway...because Denmark has run out of tarmac. They ship in limos from as far away as Germany. In ten days, they exceed the "carbon output" of most small countries for a year. (and that's not counting the wasted carbon dioxide of their blathering)

    Look...we know the data's cooked. We know the threats are empty. We see that this is simply wealth distribution. (exactly how is the US supposed to come up with $100B to give to "developing countries" for God-knows-what? We're broke!) And most of all, the leaders fail the "smell test" on two counts:

    1. It can't be much, because they are asking us to do things they aren't willing to do.
    2. If they really knew the Earth was dying (thanks to us)...and they were shown data that the Earth is cooling, (or at least flatlining), and things aren't near doomsday as previously stated, you would expect joy..."Great! It's not as bad as we thought!" But what do you get? Anger...the classical response of someone caught in a lie. The predictable reaction when busted for a crime.

    I gotta be honest. If it wasn't for the freedoms and the money and the outright fraud and bullying going on, I would be thoroughly enjoying watching the pompous tinhorn wannabe-dictators and tyrants absolutely falling flat on their hypocritical faces.
