Global Warming Hysteria: Excuse For Oligarchy

I just knew the global warming  that hysterics wouldn’t learn humility from their recent debacle. Unable to impose their will in Copenhagen, some of the more hysterical warmers apparently now want to junk the UN approach and impose their will on the world by a supposed “majority” vote of countries.  The point person for this bad idea is the politically desperate Gordon Brown, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.  From the story:

A new global body dedicated to environmental stewardship is needed to prevent a repeat of the deadlock which undermined the Copenhagen climate change summit, Gordon Brown will say tomorrow. The UN’s consensual method of negotiation, which requires all 192 countries to reach agreement, needs to be reformed to ensure that the will of the majority prevails, he feels. The Prime Minister will say: “Never again should we face the deadlock that threatened to pull down those talks. Never again should we let a global deal to move towards a greener future be held to ransom by only a handful of countries. One of the frustrations for me was the lack of a global body with the sole responsibility for environmental stewardship.

That’s just another way of saying international oligarchy controlled by “us.”  Sorry, that is the end of national sovereignty, and it just won’t do—at least not for the American people.  Besides, Mr. Prime Minister, what makes you think China will give a pot sticker what your little group think?  They own us all.
