Global government: won't happen? EU pres says otherwise

"2009 is also the first year of global governance, with the establishment of the G20 in the middle of the financial crisis. The climate conference in Copenhagen is another step towards the global management of our planet."

Won't happen. I can say my position is a key step in a stop to hunger world-wide. That doesn't make it true. "I now declare myself important to everyone." Hot air and arrogance.

Yeah but Joe Blow from Sometown, USA (no offense) saying his position is a key step in ending world hunger is more than slightly different than a sitting President (who is in a position to implement policy without a vote) stating matter-of-factly that world government is being implemented. "Won't happen" means nothing when it "is happening", according to those making international law. Those laws will be in effect no matter how hard you believe the means don't exist.

Sitting presidents can (and do) state things ‘matter-of-factly’ every day, but the number of actual facts stated is no doubt far less. Sitting presidents claim victory when victory is far away, claim that empty words ‘hope’ and ‘change’ are good and what we need, claim that all kinds of things are fact. This claim is one of the most hollow of claims I’ve heard. World governance is as far away now as it was in Roman times when certain leaders claimed they were the center of everything and rulers of all, or when England was stretching its arms all around the globe only to find resistance all around the globe. Currently there are large world powers, and small third world countries that can’t put down weapons over as little as one square mile of land. When these disputes go away instead of duplicate every year, I’ll believe a narrow-viewed politician.
