COP 15 - Nancy Pelosi in Copenhagen, "We Come Here About One Word - It's About Jobs"

Copenhagen, Dec 18, 2:30 p.m. press conference.
Nancy Pelosi spoke before the press at the COP 15, making statements which seemed directed more towards shoring up support with the U.S. public than to explaining the U.S. position to the international audience before her. After hearing nearly two weeks of testimony about the projected extreme impacts of climate change, such as hundreds of millions expected to be displaced by rising sea levels, Pelosi's meandering series of comments seemed out of place and overly U.S. focused. The most focused comment of her press conference is included in this excerpt, where Pelosi says "We come here about one word - it's about jobs". For other nations the focus obviously went beyond "jobs", with island nation Tuvalu and G77 nations discussing climate change in terms of "survival" and calling a weak agreement a "suicide-pact".

John R. Christy has been accused of recanting his position that climate change is neither Anthropogenic nor Catastrophic, but he didn’t. He used two independent data sets, weather balloon and satellite. (see links in my about me) Later he only stated that there was some anthropogenic impact that could not be predicted 100 years out, but that what we’re doing was good for the plants.

Politicians CANNOT create jobs in the private sector.

They just leech money from the taxpayers and funnel it to projects that'll probably result in nothing.
