WHAT DO LEFTISM, KYOTO, SADDAM AND THE UN HAVE IN COMMON? A CORRUPT PINKO NAMED MAURICE STRONG - and he ain't alone!

FOX/ROSSETT - (hat tip Glenn):
Officially, Strong cut his ties to the U.N. Secretariat almost two years ago, as federal investigators homed in on the discovery that back in 1997, while serving as a top adviser to then-Secretary-General Kofi Annan, he took a check for almost $1 million that was bankrolled by Saddam Hussein’s U.N.-sanctioned regime. The check was delivered by a South Korean businessman, Tongsun Park, who was convicted last summer in New York Federal Court of conspiring to bribe U.N. officials on behalf of Baghdad. Strong denied any wrongdoing and said he would step aside from his U.N. envoy post until the matter was cleared up.

Since then, Strong has receded, as he often does, into the shadows. He is currently spending most of his time in China. His name flickered recently through the speaker lineup for a gala dinner for clean technologies in San Francisco, but the organizers say he then canceled because “he has so much going on” in China.

China is a special place for Strong, a self-declared, life-long socialist. It is the burial place of a woman said to be one of his relatives, the famous pro-communist American journalist Anna Louise Strong, a vociferous supporter of Lenin and Stalin until the mid-‘30s, and a strong booster of Mao Zedong’s China. Maurice Strong’s presence in Beijing, however, raises awkward questions: For one thing, China, while one of the world’s biggest producers of industrial pollution, has been profiting from the trading of carbon emissions credits – thanks to heavily politicized U.N.-backed environmental deals engineered by Strong in the 1990s.
Man-made global warming is a sham perpetrated by leftists in order to construct a global tax-attack against industrialism, modernism, free trade and the free market. Like all leftist schemes it is really about their elitism and their bossiness and their covetousness. WE MUSTN'T LET THEM USE THE MSM TO CRANK UP HYSTERIA IN ORDER TO MAKE THEIR SCHEMES LAW.
