The Copenhagen Hustle

You know, I thought all this foo-fah over in Copenhagen was about the ice caps melting – but I was dead wrong.
 
Now there’s not much doubt with every bone in his Ivy League educated body President Obama sincerely believes if we don’t do something – now – by 2050 Manhattan Island is going to be under water and Wall Street will be a canal – but it looks like what happened in Denmark is Third World countries in search for plunder figured out asking the President to give them money so they can build green industries is as good a cash cow as they’ve seen in awhile and when they got mad and walked out of the summit what was really bothering them was the good ole USA’s failure to fork over the cash – and it worked. Because the President pledged to give countries like Sudan and Bangladesh $100 billion to build green economies but, of course, most likely the cash will end up in some warlord’s or dictator’s Swiss bank account.
