Comments for Glenn Beck Interviews Lord Monckton - Reveals Inconvenient Truth About Copenhagen Treaty at http://www.rightsidenews.com , comment 1 to 15 out of 15 comments http://www.rightsidenews.com Sat, 13 Mar 2010 08:36:27 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-5744 I am concerned about the environment but I am more concerned that the emotional potency of everyone that wants to so desperately protect our planet may be misused to create a one world government, the members of which are not elected by the people of the world. In Australia we are talking referendum because it is about time that our politicians started to listen to us the people instead of pretending to be our mummy and daddy telling us what is good for us their children. Recently I began writing to our politicians and newspapers with the same message…. Are we a nation of Sheepeople or are we a nation of thinking People? The wisdom of Benjamin Franklin in his 1722 essay was “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” may be said to mean that if we sacrifice liberty for security, we risk losing both. To my knowledge no government anywhere has had the fortitude to ask its citizens their permission to be a subject of the emerging invasive security controls of electronic fingerprinting, scanning of the retina of the eye, and the naked body scanning of the masses – every man, woman, and child identified and numbered. You may disagree with these treatments, however if you wish to engage in certain ‘FREEDOMS’ such as ‘travel’  than you may be granted the ‘PRIVILEGE’ provided you give up your ‘RIGHT’ to your  ‘privacy and dignity’. Our nation began with people being transported as if all were criminals deserving of the treatments of those times, and today can be liken to the past because as free citizens our permission is not being sought for the treatments reserved for each of us. If there is one country in the world where its citizens will demand a referendum than perhaps that country is Australia. At the very least, we will show the world that Australians do not so easily succumb to a siege mentality without publicly debating their options.

A charity has a governing body. A financial trust has a governing body. Getting all hyped up about the word government is not the right response. I am not a fan of this treaty, but this treaty challenges US sovreignity no less than any other treaty. Additionally, the "government" is administered by the Conference of the Parties, which includes the United States as a party, so the argument this is some 'communistic' thing that does a full end run around the voting system of the US is false. What you have here is a very clever and well spoken man who speaks with an accent that amuses even Glenn Beck. This man is creating scare tactics in order to attempt to quash a treaty he disagrees with. Please, disagree with the treaty, please be critical of it and bureaucratic waste, but please, don't base your decision soley on the word "government" being stated over and over again seductively by a man with a British accent. - Walter Climpton Tue, 27 Oct 2009 11:36:41 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4266 For B.Johnson1, Oct 20: Unfortunately, the Supreme Court disagrees with you. In [i]Reid v. Covert[/i], 354 U.S. 1 (1957), the Court declared, "To the extent that the United States can validly make treaties, the people and the States have delegated their power to the National Government and the Tenth Amendment is no barrier." Only the actual text of the Constitution is safe from the treaty power. This is also why the UN's Convention on the Rights of the Child poses such a threat to Parental Rights. Fortunately, there's no way this protocol would get a 2/3 Senate vote. - Michael Ramey Tue, 27 Oct 2009 10:44:39 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4197 Annex I, paragraph 38 subparagraph a of this treaty authorizes a 'Government'. I don't care how you want to read this, interpret this or hypothesize about its intent, if you let the camel's nose under the tent, the rest of his body is sure to follow. One point for you people who so desperately believe that that the redisitribution of wealth from rich to poor is all part of social justice, if you live in the US this treat just made you part of the rich irrespective of whether you live in a one room crack-house with no plumbing in the middle of harlem. . . You just been promoted to the east side. - Tigercubby Tue, 20 Oct 2009 18:23:35 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4196 Climate bill aids authors' states http://washingtontimes.com/news/2009/oct/20/climate-bill-aids-authors-states/?feat=home_headlines# - Lorianne Tue, 20 Oct 2009 17:07:12 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4194 Given that the federal Constitution is silent about climate issues, the 10th Amendment automatically reserves government power to regulate and lay taxes for climate issues to the states, not the Oval Office and Congress. So what affirmative action space-cadet Obama evidently doesn't understand is that he cannot use his power to negotiate treaties as a back door to exercising constitutionally nonexistent federal government powers. Thomas Jefferson put it this way. "Surely the President and Senate cannot do by treaty what the whole government is interdicted from doing in any way." --Thomas Jefferson: Parliamentary Manual, 1800. http://www.constitution.org/tj/tj-mpp.htm In fact, here's Jefferson's remedy for people like Obama who unthinkingly exercise constitutionally nonexistent federal government powers. "Where powers are assumed which have not been delegated, a nullification of the act is the rightful remedy." --Thomas Jefferson: Draft Kentucky Resolutions, 1798. http://tinyurl.com/oozoo - B.

This is all BS. [/quote]Oh, yes it does. Point 38 on page 18 from the link above: [quote]38. The scheme for the new institutional arrangement under the Convention will be based on three basic pillars: government; facilitative mechanism; and financial mechanism, and the basic organization of which will include the following: (a) The government will be ruled by the COP with the support of a new subsidiary body on adaptation, and of an Executive Board responsible for the management of the new funds and the related facilitative processes and bodies. The current Convention secretariat will operate as such, as appropriate. FCCC/AWGLCA/2009/INF.2 Page 19 (b) The Convention’s financial mechanism will include a multilateral climate change fund including five windows: (a) an Adaptation window, (b) a Compensation window, to address loss and damage from climate change impacts, including insurance, rehabilitation and compensatory components, (c) a Technology window; (d) a Mitigation window; and (e) a REDD window, to support a multi-phases process for positive forest incentives relating to REDD actions. (c) The Convention’s facilitative mechanism will include: (a) work programmes for adaptation and mitigation; (b) a long-term REDD process; (c) a short-term technology action plan; (d) an expert group on adaptation established by the subsidiary body on adaptation, and expert groups on mitigation, technologies and on monitoring, reporting and verification; and (e) an international registry for the monitoring, reporting and verification of compliance of emission reduction commitments, and the transfer of technical and financial resources from developed countries to developing countries. The secretariat will provide technical and administrative support, including a new centre for information exchange.[/quote][b][/b] - TT Tue, 20 Oct 2009 11:43:20 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4186 Click here for the current draft of the Copenhagen Treaty.[url]http://wattsupwiththat.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/un-fccc-copenhagen-2009.pdf[/url] - Brendan Burns Tue, 20 Oct 2009 10:57:28 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4184 Where can I find a copy of the treaty to read? - Interested Tue, 20 Oct 2009 09:33:32 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4183 I just viewed (on UTube) Lord Monckton's speech regarding President Obama signing the treaty in Copenhagen in early December, 2009, signing away the sovereignty of the US. Why are we allowing this? Basically, he will be signing away our lives. Please pick up the pace. December is merely ONE month from now, and our Constitution MUST be preserved. Why would anyone in their right mind do something so WRONG? - Paula Westbrook Tue, 20 Oct 2009 09:04:47 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4181 Obama’s upcoming acceptance of the Nobel Peace Prize and the invisible strings attached to it, may prove to be an enormously expensive exercise for all taxpayers on this continent. The “Copenhagen” supporters on the Nobel Committee, on the other hand, are counting on it. http://pacificgatepost.com/2009/10/obama-nobel-is-not-about-peace.html The Copenhagen meeting in December will require that the United States and Canada annually transfer billions of dollars to the developing world as “climate debt” for past transgressions in their emissions of CO2. --- - JAMES RAIDER Tue, 20 Oct 2009 08:25:59 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4180 Read the treaty for yourself - there is no mention of any sort of communistic global government. This is all BS. But, to play devil's advocate... Water vapor is a MUCH more effective greenhouse gas than CO2. I guess we'll have to start limiting our water emissions, too... But, then again, more water vapor in the air = more clouds = global cooling... The climate is a very complex, self-correcting, living system. The increase in CO2 is a direct RESPONSE to the warming of the Earth - which can be correlated directly with solar activity (the source of all external heat on Earth). Sorry, but reducing the fraction of 1% of atmosphereic CO2 that humans produce will have ZERO impact on climate change. The treaty allows for changes to the treaty based on the "best available science". Once the scientists can PROVE that human CO2 is not impacting climate change, this treaty will vanish into the wind. - Ms. Tue, 20 Oct 2009 08:23:39 +0100 http://www.rightsidenews.com/200910206919/energy-and-environment/glenn-beck-interviews-lord-monckton-reveals-inconvenient-truth-about-copenhagen-treaty.html#comment-4174 I will pray for you Mr. Beck.

Burning a UK gallon of petrol produces 8.3 pints of water, burning a gallon of diesel produces 9.1 pints of water - but no-one's prepared to talk about that. Why not? - Philiip Andrews Tue, 20 Oct 2009 03:45:14 +0100
