A Voice in the Wilderness In Defense of "Mere Conservatism"

Copenhagen is a joke

You can't make this stuff up.  From the Telegraph in London:

On a normal day, Majken Friss Jorgensen, managing director of Copenhagen's biggest limousine company, says her firm has twelve vehicles on the road. During the "summit to save the world", which opens here tomorrow, she will have 200.

"We thought they were not going to have many cars, due to it being a climate convention," she says. "But it seems that somebody last week looked at the weather report."

Ms Jorgensen reckons that between her and her rivals the total number of limos in Copenhagen next week has already broken the 1,200 barrier. The French alone rang up on Thursday and ordered another 42. "We haven't got enough limos in the country to fulfil the demand," she says. "We're having to drive them in hundreds of miles from Germany and Sweden."

And the total number of electric cars or hybrids among that number? "Five," says Ms Jorgensen. "The government has some alternative fuel cars but the rest will be petrol or diesel. We don't have any hybrids in Denmark, unfortunately, due to the extreme taxes on those cars. It makes no sense at all, but it's very Danish."

Oh, and it gets even better!  Fox News reports:

Tons of carbon, no Christmas trees, and Al Gore will be there?  Any takers?

As The Heritage Foundation confirms, the global warming summit in Copenhagen is pathetic and potentially dangerous to U.S. sovereignty.

Compliance with such a treaty would require massive changes to the U.S. economy, and U.N. bodies would decide many of the details of those changes.

Is that the same U.N. that has no room for "religious" things?  I wonder what they would say to the "endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights" concept our nation was founded upon?

There are conservatives out there interested in being good stewards of our world without worshiping it, or destroying the world's economy to "fix" problems in that world that aren't even confirmed to exist.
