Sarah Palin: Copenhagen = arrogance of man

* 


Sarah Palin has chalked up the just-concluded Copenhagen climate change summit to the "arrogance of man." In the early morning hours (Texas time) Saturday, the former governor tweeted:

"Copenhgen=arrogance of man2think we can change nature's ways.MUST b good stewards of God's earth,but arrogant&naive2say man overpwers nature" 

"Earth saw clmate chnge4 [eons];will cont 2 c chnges.R duty2responsbly devlop resorces4humankind/not pollute&destroy;but cant alter naturl chng"

In a Facebook Notes op-ed posted December 3, the 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate had urged President Barack Obama to boycott the conference in Denmark. Her opinion piece published in the Washington Post December 9 warned Americans to "be wary about what comes out of this politicized conference":

"Whatever deal he gets, it will be no deal for the American people. What Obama really hopes to bring home from Copenhagen is more pressure to pass the Democrats’ cap-and-tax proposal. This is a political move. The last thing America needs is misguided legislation that will raise taxes and cost jobs -- particularly when the push for such legislation rests on agenda-driven science."
