Poll question: Should Obama Speak/Step Into the Disaster that has Become the Copenhagen Summit?
Edited on Fri Dec-18-09 04:26 AM by JCMach1
Seriously, Copenhagen has become a worse disaster than Chicago's Olympics bid... Why go there? Why now?

He will be vilified by the right and the left for this one... Seems like a lose/lose to me.

1. The summit is a joke and a disaster largely because of us.
If he went there, he might have to own it and we can't have that, can we?

2. Yes, because he'd already said he was going
Giving up at the last minute would be cowardly. It would be sticking his head in the sand and saying climate change is "Someboy Else's Problem".

I haven't heard anyone say "the Chicago Olympic bid was a disaster for Obama" after about the first 48 hours. That was just a media talking point because they had to say something for those couple of days.

Why did you post a poll, and then remove the options?
