The New World Order
Watts Up With That has some excerpts from the treaty.
Skimming through the treaty, I came across verification of Monckton's assessment of the new entity's purpose:
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:

World Government (heading added)
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.

To Redistribute Wealth (heading added)
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 [read: the "climate debt" Monckton refers to], 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.

And of course there is an enforcement mechanism.

It will be interesting to wake up one day and find the country under new management without benefit of an election or revolution. I expect we will have a new government first and a revolution second. Interesting times.

You can look at copy of the treaty and come to your own conclusions.

Maybe it is time for a call to the politicians.

House of Representatives
The Senate

It seems like they are throwing so much at us that it is near impossible to defend every point. All they need is one win and they are over the top. Any loss means our destruction. Eric at Classical Values shows where a bill making wood illegal has already passed. And then there is the health care monstrosity wending its way through congress. How do you fight it all?

The "treaty" is of course 181 pages of unreadable gobbledygook.

But I think I now know why they gave Obama was given the Nobel Prize. (Or should that be called the Nobel Bribe?)

Bear in mind that any treaty Obama signs still would have to be ratified.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ratification

***QUOTE***

In the U.S.A., treaty ratification must be advised and consented to by a two-thirds majority in the U.S. Senate. The Senate does not actually ratify treaties. Once the Senate has given its advice and consent to ratification, the President ratifies the treaty by signing an instrument of ratification. While the United States House of Representatives does not vote on it at all, the requirement for Senate advice and consent to ratification makes it considerably more difficult in the US than in other democracies to rally enough political support for international treaties.

How do you fight it all?

I really don't like some of the answers that come to mind. Not one little bit.

For now though, vote the bastards out. All of them. I would like to think that this would be enough. But I'm really, truly, deeply frightened about where we're headed.

Eric,

That is correct. But what if ∅ signs the treaty and acts (with his executive power) as if it was in force?

M. Simon   ·  October 18, 2009 02:23 PM

Any treaty which overrides the sovereignty of the US is unconstitutional. So Obama can sign whatever he wants, it wont mean anything. And what's more, it wont mean anything to the other developed nations that will be going through the motions.

But maybe Obama signing something blatantly unconstitutional would be an impeachable offense? We can only hope.

When the tide turns the treaties will be abrogated. The only real question is how far will the entitlement programs will be retrenched. And how much of the non core functions of the government will be rescinded.

Yehudit,

That all depends on whether you believe the Constitution is self enforcing.

Or what you believe might be done until the situation is corrected. Depending of course on if a Democrat Congress would go after a Democrat President.

The point Monkton makes is that the global warming crowd really have a political agenda, which is simply wrapped up in a shoddy scientific wrapper. My sense is that CV readers mostly would agree with Monkton.

Yes, ratification would be necessary. Monkton is not a US constitutional scholar, but that doesn’t mitigate his point about the purpose of the treaty.

Obama is a puppet for Soros, who is an admitted proponent of one world government.

History tells us there is no limit to the addiction of power. The current crop of Democrats have shown themselves to be deceitful and contemptuous of the will of the American people. There is little evidence that the Democrats would act differently when it comes to this treaty.
