United Nations Warns U.S. on Obamacare Repeal



Did you know that repealing Obamacare is considered a violation of international law?  According to the United Nations High Commission on Human Rights in Geneva, the United States no longer has sovereignty over its domestic affairs.  Here is an excerpt from Fox News:

The Post reported that the confidential, five-page memo cautioned that the repeal of the Affordable Care Act would put the U.S. “at odds with its international obligations.”
The warning was sent to the State Department and reportedly said the U.N. expressed “serious concern” about the prospective loss of health coverage for 30 million people, that in turn could violate “the right to social security of the people in the United States.”

Did Barack Obama surrender our sovereignty to a bunch of U.N. bureaucrats?  I wouldn’t be surprised if he did considering the whole Iran fiasco.

Obama Admin. Steals $500 Million from Taxpayers



Back in the day, when I went to school, students were taught Congress passed legislation and controlled the purse strings, the executive enforced those laws and the judiciary has the responsibility to ensure those laws are properly adjudicated.  It seems the Obama administration doesn’t have a grasp on basic civics.

We are finding out the Obama administration illegally transferred $500 million to a U.N. global warming slush fund without the authority from Congress.  As a matter of fact, a law was specifically passed to prohibit this kind of wealth transference.  The Independent Sentinel wrote the following:

Senator John Barrasso (R-WY) asked a State Department official why $500 million was illegally removed without congressional approval to be put into the UN’s Green Climate slush fund. Congress made it clear the money was not to be allocated for the dictators’ club.

Obama “unilaterally pledged about three billion dollars for UN climate fund” and only Congress can appropriate the funds and they have not authorized any funding for the international climate change agenda, Barrasso told a State Department official.

Congress has specifically “prohibited” any funds to the UN climate change slush fund.

Barrsso said no money was allocated for it but “now media is reporting this morning that the administration deposited $500 million into the UN Green Climate Fund. It appears to be the latest example of the administration going around Congress because the American people don’t really support what the ‘president’ is doing with this initiative.

Isn’t this stealing?  Shouldn’t this be an impeachable offense? Article II Section 4 specifically states:

The president, vice president and all civic officers of the United States shall be removed from office on impeachment for, and conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors.

Had this president been a white republican, he would’ve been impeached a long time ago.

United Nations Demand U.S. Pay Slavery Reparations




Barack Obama has led the American people down a treacherous path.  This so-called president has shown nothing but contempt for the American people, the rule of law and the Constitution of the United States.  Others have taken notice.  Foreign organizations have been handed the baton and are running with wild accusations and demands that are outright preposterous.  The latest absurdity comes from the United Nations.  This corrupt pseudo-government body has embarked on a “fact finding” mission and has concluded the following:


American citizens must pay reparations for slavery past and present.  According to these geniuses, mass incarcerations of blacks for drug offenses are a form of slavery.  Of course, the rule of law and moral authority means nothing to a body that consists of murderers, Islamist and dictators.


“The devastating impact of the ‘war on drugs’ has led to mass incarceration and is compared to enslavement, due to exploitation and dehumanization of African Americans,” they declared


These interlopers also want to dictate what we teach in our classrooms.


The three – French law professor Mireille Fanon Mendes-France, Filipino human rights lawyer Ricardo Sunga and South African legal scholar Sabelo Gumedze – called for a greater emphasis in school curricula on the history of colonization and the transatlantic slave trade.

They also recommended that “monuments, memorials and markers” highlighting the slavery issue be erected, and for federal and state legislation “recognizing the experience of enslavement” to be passed.

The three stooges will present their recommendations to the United Nations Human Rights Council.


“The colonial history, the legacy of enslavement, racial subordination and segregation, racial terrorism, and racial inequality in the U.S. remains a serious challenge as there has been no real commitment to reparations and to truth and reconciliation for people of African descent,” it said.

The American Civil War ended slavery over 150 years ago.  No one alive today in the United States has experienced slavery, however, that can't be said in other parts of the world.  Here is more from these three fools.

“Despite substantial changes since the end of the enforcement of Jim Crow and the fight for civil rights, ideology ensuring the domination of one group over another, continues to negatively impact the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of African Americans today.

“The dangerous ideology of white supremacy inhibits social cohesion amongst the U.S. population.”

What are they talking about?  We don't have white supremacy!  If anything, we have white guilt!  There are students publicly defacing themselves on college campuses.  This is an absurd statement.


These three "experts" applauded the Affordable Care Act and condemned voter ID along with stand your ground legislation.  Doesn’t that sound like Barack Obama and the Democratic Party’s agenda?  May I ask, why are we still members of this corrupt organization?

Obama Admin. Partners With U.N. to Take Over American Cities



The Obama administration is infested with traitors starting with the president himself.  His crimes, and by extension members of his cabinet, against the America people are too numerous to count.  So, we must focus on his latest lawlessness and contempt for our nation’s sovereignty and our Constitution.


The latest affront by Obama’s DOJ is their attempt at bypassing our federalist system by circumventing the citizenry and taking over local municipalities by implementing a United Nations program called, “Strong Cities Network.”  This initiative is a global program designed to counter local extremists groups.  And we all know who they consider extremists.  Here is an excerpt from Pamela Geller’s column at Breitbart.com.



Even more ominously, the DoJ press release says that the Strong Cities Network “will strengthen strategic planning and practices to address violent extremism in all its forms by fostering collaboration among cities, municipalities and other sub-national authorities.” Sub-national and international: the press release then quotes Governing Mayor Stian Berger Røsland of Oslo, Norway, a participant in the Strong Cities Network, saying: “To counter violent extremism we need determined action at all levels of governance. To succeed, we must coordinate our efforts and cooperate across borders. The Strong Cities Network will enable cities across the globe pool our resources, knowledge and best practices together and thus leave us standing stronger in the fight against one of the greatest threats to modern society.”

But what is that greatest threat, exactly? Remember, the DoJ presser says that the SCN will “address violent extremism in all its forms.” It also says that it will aid initiatives that are working toward “building social cohesion and resilience to violent extremism.” “Building social cohesion” is a euphemism for keeping peace between non-Muslim and Muslim communities – mostly by making sure that non-Muslims don’t complain too loudly about, much less work against, rapidly expanding Muslim populations and the Islamization of their communities.

It’s hard to believe we have a president purposefully working against the interest of the United States and its people.  It’s even harder to believe we let him get away with it.

PM Benjamin Netanyahu Shames U.N.



Israel is alone.  Barack Obama, our president, has turned his back on our ally.  Prime Minister Netanyahu has every right to shame the U.N. and its league of anti-Semites for their part in enabling Iran in their quest for a nuclear weapon.  Unfortunately, America’s representatives didn’t bother to attend his speech.

Obama's U.N. Ambassador Signs Marxist Utopian Program




Once again, the Obama administration uses a pen and a phone to implement Marxist utopian idealism at the expense of American sovereignty.  This time President Barack Hussein Mussolini empowered his ambassador to sign off on a United Nations Sustainable Development program and then quoted a renowned communist.  Gateway Pundit reported the following:

These “goals“, designed to eradicate world poverty and fight Climate Change, include the Socialist ideals of universal healthcare, universal education, universal employment, and wealth redistribution, all of which must in place by 2030.

On Thursday night, the eve of the U.N. Summit, U.S. Ambassador to the U.N., Samantha Powers (pictured above), gave a speech in support of the new U.N. Sustainable Development goals where she quoted Communist influenced economist, Amartya Sen:
“I want to open my remarks with a quote from the master, “Development requires the removal of major sources of unfreedom: poverty as well as tyranny, poor economic opportunities as well as systematic social deprivation, neglect of public facilities as well as intolerance or over-activity of repressive states.” This goes to the essence of Goal 16 in the SDGs, which as you know world leaders will adopt within the next few hours. But it was written nearly two decades ago – by Amartya. And, I would only say, I wish the world had come around to his vision a little bit sooner – we could have probably spared a lot of people a lot of heartache.”


We’re governed by traitors and fools.  Does anyone have an idea how they’ll implement this utopian nonsense?  I’m sure they’re looking upon the American people with a covetous eye.  Here are a couple of excerpts from their declaration:


Section 27:

We will seek to build strong economic foundations for all our countries. Sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth is essential for prosperity. This will only be possible if wealth is shared and income inequality is addressed.  


Section 28:

We commit to making fundamental changes in the way that our societies produce and consume goods and services. Governments, international organizations, the business sector and other non-State actors and individuals must contribute to changing unsustainable consumption and production patterns, including through the mobilization, from all sources, of financial and technical assistance to strengthen developing countries’ scientific, technological and innovative capacities to move towards more sustainable patterns of consumption and production.
  

Here is the price tag for this global initiative as reported by the Guardian:


The world’s development agenda is about to become more expensive than ever. At the UN’s Third Financing for Development conference, in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, between 13-16 July, world leaders will look for ways to pay for the ambitious and costly sustainable development goals (SDGs), which include ending poverty and achieving food security in every corner of the globe by 2030.

Addis is about moving from billions in financing commitments to trillions.

The specific targets for each goal, which have not been formally agreed yet, will take over from the millennium development goals (MDGs) at the end of the year. According to UN estimates, for the new goals to be met will require as much as $11.5tn a year, $172.5tn over the 15-year timeframe.

That’s trillions, folks.  Since this is a government sponsored project, you can expect the price tag to go up a hundredfold by the time they’re through.

St. Louis Rallies for United Nations Usurpation of U.S. Constitution




It's getting to the point that I'm no longer surprised at the depths progressives will go to alter our constitution, and enslave our citizens to a foreign entity.  A doctor, along with the mayor of St. Louis, MO stood before a crowd and demanded the usurpation of the United States.

Notice the use of children to advance their totalitarian agenda.  Evil always uses the innocent as a tool.  Shame isn't in their vocabulary.

U.N. Dictates Americans Will Pay Over One-Fifth of Their Budget




Thank God for small favors!  The United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution that ALLOWS the United States to pay for over a fifth of its budget.  Isn’t that wonderful?  I’m glad we had a say in this matter.  After all, it’s not like we’re a sovereign nation, or anything. 
The U.N. must be taking cues from the Obama administration.   His administration has deftly pointed out Congress is just window dressing for his monarchial decrees.  Everyone knows the American people can be taken advantage of, except of course, the American people.
 
(CNSNews.com) – In one of its last actions of the year, the United Nations General Assembly on Christmas Eve agreed to extend for another three years the formula that has U.S. taxpayers contributing more than one-fifth of the world body’s regular budget.

No member-state called for a recorded vote, and the resolution confirming the contributions that each country will make for the 2013-2015 period was summarily adopted. The assembly also approved a two-year U.N. budget of $5.4 billion.

The U.S. has accounted for 22 percent of the total regular budget every year since 2000, and will now continue to do so for the next three years.

The U.S. representative for U.N. management and reform, Joseph Torsella, expressed satisfaction that the U.S. contribution had not been raised above that level.

I wonder if Mr. Torsella expressed his satisfaction before or after he licked the U.N.’s boots.

IPCC to Undercut Their Man-Made Global Warming Theory



The Telegraph is reporting what many of us man-made global warming skeptics have been arguing about for over a decade or so:  the sun is the main culprit.  Here is the news the American mainstream media refuses to report:
Breaking news from the US – h/t Watts Up With That? – where a leaked draft of the IPCC's latest report AR5 admits what some of us have suspected for a very long time: that the case for man-made global warming is looking weaker by the day and that the sun plays a much more significant role in "climate change" than the scientific "consensus" has previously been prepared to concede.

Here's the killer admission:

Many empirical relationships have been reported between GCR or cosmogenic isotope archives and some aspects of the climate system (e.g., Bond et al., 2001; Dengel et al., 2009; Ram and Stolz, 1999). The forcing from changes in total solar irradiance alone does not seem to account for these observations, implying the existence of an amplifying mechanism such as the hypothesized GCR-cloud link. We focus here on observed relationships between GCR and aerosol and cloud properties.

As the leaker explains, this is a game-changer:

The admission of strong evidence for enhanced solar forcing changes everything. The climate alarmists can’t continue to claim that warming was almost entirely due to human activity over a period when solar warming effects, now acknowledged to be important, were at a maximum. The final draft of AR5 WG1 is not scheduled to be released for another year but the public needs to know now how the main premises and conclusions of the IPCC story line have been undercut by the IPCC itself.

The only surprise is that the IPCC is willing to publish this report.  But we’ll have to wait for that formal admission.

Illegal Aliens Demand Their HUMAN RIGHTS in Charlotte, NC

The other day a caravan of illegal aliens rolled into Charlotte, NC demanding their rights. Where do these people get this concept that they have a HUMAN RIGHT to violate our immigration laws? That no nation can violate their freedom of movement and that they can go anywhere they please without the consent of a nation’s citizenry. Why the United Nations of course.



The United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights was established on December 10, 1948. There are 30 articles all together. But the ones that pertain to the transnationalist, who believe are immigration laws are irrelevant, and that includes our current president and his coterie of communist, are the following:

Article 2.


Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status. Furthermore, no distinction shall be made on the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory to which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty

Article 6.


Everyone has the right to recognition everywhere as a person before the law.
^ Top
Article 7.


All are equal before the law and are entitled without any discrimination to equal protection of the law. All are entitled to equal protection against any discrimination in violation of this Declaration and against any incitement to such discrimination.
^ Top
Article 8.


Everyone has the right to an effective remedy by the competent national tribunals for acts violating the fundamental rights granted him by the constitution or by law

Article 13


(1) Everyone has the right to freedom of movement and residence within the borders of each state.

(2) Everyone has the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country
Article 23.


(1) Everyone has the right to work, to free choice of employment, to just and favourable conditions of work and to protection against unemployment.


(2) Everyone, without any discrimination, has the right to equal pay for equal work.

(3) Everyone who works has the right to just and favourable remuneration ensuring for himself and his family an existence worthy of human dignity, and supplemented, if necessary, by other means of social protection.


(4) Everyone has the right to form and to join trade unions for the protection of his interests.

Article 26.

(1) Everyone has the right to education. Education shall be free, at least in the elementary and fundamental stages. Elementary education shall be compulsory. Technical and professional education shall be made generally available and higher education shall be equally accessible to all on the basis of merit.


(2) Education shall be directed to the full development of the human personality and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. It shall promote understanding, tolerance and friendship among all nations, racial or religious groups, and shall further the activities of the United Nations for the maintenance of peace.

(3) Parents have a prior right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children.

Article 30.


Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and freedoms set forth herein

I’m sure there are other articles that the transnationalist would say apply as well. But I’m only highlighting the ones the illegals believe they have a right to.

NRA Takes a Stand Against UN Gun Grabbers

Wayne LaPierre went into the belly of the beast and took a stand. The United Nations, an organization of tyrants, has made countless schemes to disarm American citizens. The spokesman for the National Rifle Association stated under no terms will we as people relinquish our firearms. Here is an excerpt:


Mr. President, thank you for this brief opportunity to address this conference. I am Wayne LaPierre and for 21 years now, I have served as Executive Vice President of the National Rifle Association of America.

The NRA is the largest and most active firearms rights organization in the world, with four million members who represent 100 million law-abiding Americans who own firearms.

On behalf of those 100 million American gun owners, I am here to announce NRA’s strong opposition to anti-freedom policies that disregard American citizens’ right to self-defense.

No foreign influence has jurisdiction over the freedoms our Founding Fathers guaranteed to us.

We will not stand idly by while international organizations, whether state-based or stateless, attempt to undermine the fundamental liberties that our men and women in uniform have fought so bravely to preserve – and on which our entire American system of government is based.

Here is a video of the whole speech:

Obama Grafters Internationalize Solyndra Scam

The United Nations has once again scammed the American people out of our hard earned money. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton committed $20 million from the United States treasury for specious clean energy programs, all in the name of fighting global warming.

The aid money is part of the United States' contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Energy for All initiative, which was launched last year. United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon announced during this week's Rio+20 U.N. summit on sustainable development that 50 countries have pledged $50 billion to the effort, which aims to double the share of global renewable energy by 2030.

“This initiative is already mobilizing significant action from all sectors of society,” Ban said at the summit,
according to Reuters. “Working together, we can provide solutions that drive economic growth, expand equity and reduce the risks of climate change.”

The $20 million isn’t all that the Obama administration has committed the United States to. They have promised the United Nations $2 billion in the form of loans, grants and loan guarantees in the naïve belief that this will unlock private investment.

The grafters in the Obama administration have internationalized their Solyndra scam. Where is Congress? Did they approve this? Do we still have a Constitution?

United Nations Conspires to Tax American Families

The United Nations is hell bent on imposing a climate tax on the United States. They want to redistribute the wealth of American families to the third world. But we all know that money will go to the dictators who run those countries. The Washington Examiner reported the following:

Another proposal would spread the cost of investing in other countries throughout society. "We call for the fulfilment of all official development assistance commitments, including the commitments by many developed countries to achieve the target of 0.7 per cent of gross national product for official development assistance to developing countries by 2015," the draft says. The proposal would provide "a target of .015 to .020 percent of gross national product for official development assistance to least developed countries." That plan would cost $1,325 for an American family of four, according to CFACT.

The schemers at the U.N. want to strike while the Obama administration is still in power. They see this as a once in lifetime opportunity to screw us over.

"Rio+20 is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make real progress towards the sustainable economy of the future," UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon said at a press conference last week."We aspire to nothing less than a global movement for generational change." The draft agenda notes that "views represented in this document do not necessarily represent the views of the Secretariat, who only aggregated the submissions."

If this ever comes to pass, we can expect the United Nations to cater to rogue regimes. They will use our money to undermine the sovereignty and security of the United States. All you have to do is look at the Kyoto Protocols to discern how the U.N. will conspire against our national interest. The Washington Free Beacon reported the following:

The U.N. Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is defined in Article 12 of the Kyoto Protocol. Western European countries fund energy projects in the developing world in order to obtain Certified Emission Reduction credits (CERs), tradable credits that enable Europeans to count foreign emission reductions towards their own domestic emission reduction targets.

“The CDM started from a page and a half in the Kyoto Protocol,” said David Abbass, a spokesperson for the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change. “In the beginning they thought there would be maybe 600 projects, but now there are over 4,000 projects.”

Iran, Uzbekistan, Sudan, and North Korea are among the more than 70 countries currently hosting CDM projects.

Iran, with 16 separate CDM projects, brings in around 4.8 million CERs, worth about $26 million, every year, despite numerous U.N.
sanctions against the Islamic Republic

What good are sanctions against rogue regimes like Iran when the United Nations is funneling money to them. We should never give this agency any kind of taxing authority over our citizens.

The United Nations: A Cabal of Jew Haters



This rant by Pat Condell pretty much sums up the United Nations. This international organization is nothing more than a den of thieves, murderers, and Islamic terrorist, undeserving of legitimacy.

Mr. Condell hits his stride when he describes the Islamic hell holes that continuously pass resolutions against Israel. What's laughable is that Muslim refugees won't even accept asylum from Islamic countries. Here is a video proving just that:



And yet, when they do receive asylum from Western countries, they try and change their adopted homeland into the third-world hell holes from whence they came. Go figure.

Obama's Ambassador to the United Nations Admits U.S. Doesn't Have the Same Gravitas it Once Had

The Obama administration has once again poked a finger in Congresses eye. Last fall, the United Nations agency UNESCO recognized the Palestinians by admitting them as a member. Current U.S. law mandates defunding of any U.N. organization that formally recognizes this terrorist sponsored state. But that didn’t stop the usurpers in the White House from budgeting UNESCO.


(CNSNews.com) – The Obama administration’s envoy to the United Nations argued on Capitol Hill Tuesday that defunding the United Nation’s cultural agency because it admitted “Palestine” hurts America’s interests more than it does those of the Palestinians.

Appearing before the House Appropriations’ subcommittee responsible for foreign operations, Susan Rice was questioned about the administration’s fiscal year 2013 request for $79 million for the U.N. Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.

She described UNESCO as “essentially an anti-extremist organization,” saying that it does “essential work, from girls’ education to tsunami warning, that serve U.S. interests.”

Members of the United Nations know our law. Yet, this agency purposefully admitted “Palestine” knowing full well that defunding would be the consequence. It seems they - like this president - are willfully testing the resolve of the American people.


Obama’s U.N. ambassador admits that in today’s world, the standing of the United States doesn’t have the gravitas it once had:

But Rice disputed the notion that the 1990 and 1994 laws serve as a successful deterrent today.


When the laws were created, she told the panel, “the world was a very different place – the process of pursuing a negotiated two-state solution was, you know, in a very different place.”


Back then, Rice said, the law did have the deterrent effect, as intended.


“It no longer does,” she said, noting that “the Palestinians and the rest of the world knew about the legislative restrictions before they took the vote in UNESCO” and went ahead anyway.


Should the P.A. decide to go ahead with applying to join other U.N. bodies, Rice continued, the law’s existence would likely not deter a majority of U.N. member states from voting to admit “Palestine.”


In the case of UNESCO, Rice suggested that the Palestinians achieved both membership and the additional benefit of seeing the decline of U.S. influence in the agency. (Once a UNESCO member is two years in arrears, it loses its voting rights.)

The world is a different place today, because we have a president who is a self-loathing American; and the whole world knows it. Worse, they know Obama will defy our Constitution and elected representatives. Why is that? Because he has done it before. They are betting he will fund UNESCO against our will.

American Taxpayers Fund Half of U.N. Rogue Agency: The IPCC



Many Americans are going to be surprised that we are funding nearly half of the United Nations IPCC’s budget. These scoundrels have been dependent on the American taxpayers for years, and worse, they used our own money to try and subjugate us through their global governance machinations via the global warming scam.

How is it that we’re just now finding out about the funding of this disreputable organization?


How it is that Congress (who is constitutionally mandated to control the purse strings) had no idea how much money was going to this organization? CNS reported the following:

After facing “key challenges” in determining the amount of funding to the IPCC, the GAO now recommends that U.S. funding be reported annually to Congress with “accurate and consistent information.”

The report said documents on U.S. financing for the IPCC were “not available in budget documents or on the websites of the relevant federal agencies, and the agencies are generally not required to report this information to Congress.”

Conflicting State Department numbers also made it more difficult for the GAO to assemble the data. The GAO “reviewed documents and interviewed officials from federal agencies and IPCC” to reach its findings.

A 2005 GAO report entitled “Federal Reports on Climate Change Funding Should Be Clearer and More Complete” found that federal funding for climate change was not adequately accountable. “Congress and the public cannot consistently track federal climate change funding or spending over time,” the report concluded.

This is absolutely shameful. No one knows exactly how much money is going to this grand hoax; not even the GAO. This should be an indicator that the federal government is too damn big.

And to add circumspection about the IPCC, here is a brief description of its chairman:


No one in the world exercised more influence on the events leading up to the Copenhagen conference on global warming than Dr Rajendra Pachauri, chairman of the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and mastermind of its latest report in 2007.


Although Dr Pachauri is often presented as a scientist (he was even once described by the BBC as “the world’s top climate scientist”), as a former railway engineer with a PhD in economics he has no qualifications in climate science at all.


What has also almost entirely escaped attention, however, is how Dr Pachauri has established an astonishing worldwide portfolio of business interests with bodies which have been investing billions of dollars in organisations dependent on the IPCC’s policy recommendations.


These outfits include banks, oil and energy companies and investment funds heavily involved in ‘carbon trading’ and ‘sustainable technologies’, which together make up the fastest-growing commodity market in the world, estimated soon to be worth trillions of dollars a year.


Today, in addition to his role as chairman of the IPCC, Dr Pachauri occupies more than a score of such posts, acting as director or adviser to many of the bodies which play a leading role in what has become known as the international ‘climate industry’.



The chairman of the IPCC should be an indicator of what kind of organization this is. And rest assured it has nothing to do do with the climate.

The EPA's "Sustainability" Power Grab




The Environmental Protection Agency is in the midst of a coup. They have designs on our liberties and economic prosperity. I say that, because this agency commissioned and published a study entitled, “Sustainability and the U.S. EPA.” at a cost of $700,000 paid for by the taxpayers. This so-called study is nothing more than a power grab. Fox News reports:

According to the Academies, the sustainability study “both incorporates and goes beyond an approach based on assessing and managing the risks posed by pollutants that has largely shaped environmental policy since the 1980s.”

It is already known in EPA circles as the “Green Book,” and is frequently compared by insiders to the “Red Book,” a study on using risk management techniques to guide evaluation of carcinogenic chemicals that the agency touts as the basis of its overall approach to environmental issues for the past 30 years.

At the time that the “Green Book” study was commissioned, in August, 2010, EPA Administrator
Lisa Jackson termed it “the next phase of environmental protection,” and asserted that it will be “fundamental to the future of the EPA.”

Jackson compared the new approach, it would articulate to “the difference between treating disease and pursuing wellness.” It was, she said, “a new opportunity to show how environmentally protective and sustainable we can be,” and would affect “every aspect” of EPA’s work.

According to the study itself, the adoption of the new “sustainability framework” will make the EPA more “anticipatory” in its approach to environmental issues, broaden its focus to include both social and economic as well as environmental “pillars,” and “strengthen EPA as an organization and a leader in the nation’s progress toward a sustainable future.”


You ask how the Obama apparatchiks plan on implementing these policies. Earlier this year, administrator Lisa P. Jackson requested a whopping 230,000 new EPA bureaucrats to rule over us all. Americans for Prosperity reported:

In a court filing last week, EPA quantified the vast new army of federal bureaucrats it will need to process millions of new permits under the Prevention of Significant Deterioration and Title V permitting process. A shocking 230,000 new EPA bureaucrats at a cost of $21 billion -- more than tripling the EPA's total budget. In the filing EPA says it will reach these levels by April 30, 2016.

Based on the historical relationship between the number of federal regulators and private sector employment recently
quantified by the Phoenix Center the addition of 230,000 federal bureaucrats would destroy 22.5 million private sector jobs.

The EPA is in league with the United Nations. The sustainability development project is the central topic in their next global summit meeting being held in Rio de Janeiro next June. Let’s hope that’s as far as their Marxist ambitions go.

IPCC Conspires to Confiscate Wealth Through International Climate Change Court





If you thought Barack Obama and his Marxist pals in the Democratic Party where masters of class warfare rhetoric; just wait until we get the brunt end of a cudgel at an international level. The United Nations is holding a climate change conference in Durbin, South African. These conspirators are devising a way to undermine the nation state, and confiscate the wealth of the more successful through the means of an international climate change court of justice.

Fox News reported the machinations of these thugs:

The rules of the road the court would presumably enforce are based on the view that these developed countries owe developing countries a "debt" over climate change, and must provide financial aid in addition to taking major steps toward cutting emissions.

In one section, the document calls for developed countries to help poorer countries with "finance, technology and capacity building" so they can "adapt to and mitigate climate change" while helping eliminate poverty. Another section provides that developing countries should receive an amount of money equal to the amount "developed countries spend on defense, security and warfare."

Yet the document also calls for a guaranteed end to warfare altogether -- for the sake of curbing climate change.

One section, noting that "conflict-related activities emit significant greenhouse gas emissions," calls on all parties to "cease destructive activities" like warfare -- and then channel the money that would have been spent on war and other defense projects toward "a common enemy: climate change."

The document also asserts the "rights of mother earth," a concept that environmental activists have been pushing for.


Mother earth has rights? What in the hell is that supposed to mean? Do we have a transcendental being that can channel the grievances of the earth? And who will sit in judgment … third-world dictators? Have we all gone mad?

I believe the common enemy of all free peoples is the United Nations. How long are the American people going to put up with their nonsense?

Obama's Climate Change Minion Threatens U.S. With Currency Tax



Barack Obama’s special envoy to the United Nations global warming conference told the press that he and the world’s oppressors are doing their damnedest to put another nail in the U.S. economy coffin. This band of conspirators is trying to pass a financial currency tax on the pretext that it will save the planet. The Washington Examiner reports the following:

President Obama's special envoy to the United Nations Climate Change conference said that a Green Climate Fund, reportedly funded in part through a financial currency tax that would hit Americans hardest, is "rapidly" approaching.

"We are in the international context going to be, hopefully, and I believe that this will be the case, rapidly setting up the Green Fund," Todd Stern, Special Envoy for Climate Change,
told reporters at the UN conference. "We will also be working hard to ramp up the funding that is supposed to reach a 100 billion dollars a year by 2020."

He added that "the Green Climate Fund . . . [is] an area actually which is among the most advanced in the negotiations." The global warming skeptics at the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT)
say that negotiators are developing a financial currency tax to help pay for the fund that would hit the United States much harder than Europeans. "[E]very time we import goods, every time we export our fine products (think jobs) we will do so with a climate tax skimming off the top," CFACT says, but "transactions within the Eurozone won't have to pay this new tax."

Stern wouldn't go into details, but said negotiators have worked "to find the right ways to mobilize to use government funding and policy to mobilize private capital to invest in green infrastructure."

Obama’s minion of tyranny has forgotten that treaties must pass the U.S. Senate. And that is where the global warming slayer is waiting for them. Senator Inhofe isn’t fooled by these charlatans.
