In 1992 who said: "But the theory of global warming will not be disproved, and the skeptics are vastly outnumbered by former skeptics who now accept the overwhelming weight of accumulated evidence." Writing about automobiles, who said, "We now know that their cumulative impact on the global environment is posing a mortal threat to the security of every nation that is more deadly than that of any military enemy we are ever again likely to confront…it ought to be possible to establish a coordinated global program to accomplish the strategic goal of completely eliminating the internal combustion engine over, say, a twenty-five-year period." No, it is not President Barack Obama who rescued General Motors from bankruptcy in order to require that it begin building obscenely expensive electric cars that will get you anywhere you want to go so long it’s not farther away than forty miles. It is, of course, Al Gore and you can read more of his insane ravings in "Earth in the Balance," published initially just prior to serving as the 45th Vice President of the United States during Bill Clinton’s two terms from 1993 to 2001. In 2000 he was the Democratic Party candidate for President, losing to George W. Bush after an election so close the Supreme Court had to make the final call. After his defeat, Al Gore apparently decided that, if he could not be President, he could at least become obscenely wealthy by co-founding and becoming chairman of Generation Investment Management, focusing on "sustainable investing." He co-founded and became chairman of Current TV, a cable and satellite television network "for young people based on viewer-created content and citizen journalism." Current just hired Keith Olbermann, formerly of MSNBC. He found time to write An Inconvenient Truth about global warming and to star in an Oscar-winning documentary. The book was published in 2006 and The New York Times proclaimed that "Al Gore revisits global warming, with passionate warnings and pictures." This was followed by a 2007 Nobel Peace Prize shared with the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. In late 2009 the wheels began to come off of Al Gore's and the IPCC hoax when thousands of emails between the key perpetrators of its rigged computer climate models were posted to the Internet. Everyone could learn about the conspiracy of lies that were the foundation of global warming. Plans to impose a massive energy tax known as Cap-and-Trade began to falter. A 2009 United Nations Conference of Parties in Copenhagen resembled a rout as delegates struggled to leave town as a blizzard descended. A 2010 conference in Cancun was mocked as an excuse for UN toadies to dance until dawn and dine like royalty. In June 2010, Gore and Tipper, his high school sweetheart and wife of 40 years, announced their separation. That same month, Gore paid $8,875,000 for an ocean view villa in Montecito, California. His Nashville mansion burned enough electricity to keep the lights on in several small Tennessee towns. Today, Al Gore and global warming are synonymous with hypocrisy and deceit on a global scale. With the advent of record-setting low temperatures and blizzards bringing U.S. cities to a standstill, Gore has been telling anyone who would listen that the cold and snow was the result of – you guessed it – global warming. On January 31st, noted meteorologist, Dr. Roy W. Spencer, blogged that "No serious climate researcher – including the ones I disagree with believes global warming can cause colder weather unless they have become delusional as a result of some sort of mental illness." On February 3rd, Investor’s Business Daily editorialized about "Gore’s Unending Blizzard of Lies." The same day in Forbes Magazine, Larry Bell, the author of "Climate of Corruption: Politics and Power Behind the Global-Warming Hoax," said of Gore that "no one has done more to melt down complacent minds with stoked-up claims of fossil-fueled climate peril." Behind the global-warming hoax was the scheme to put a price on a tiny element (0.0389%) of the Earth’s atmosphere, Carbon Dioxide, that could then be bartered like a commodity as "carbon credits." It never had anything to do with climate. It was Gore, speaking before a 2007 U.S. Joint House Energy and Science Committee, who said, "As soon as carbon has a price, you’re going to see a wave of investment in it." It was P.T. Barnum who said, "There’s a sucker born every minute." It was always about the money. If it took a global hoax, a fraud perpetrated by the United Nations’ IPCC and given the complete support of the mainstream media, so be it. My question is this: If the government could bring Bernie Madoff to justice for perpetrating a $50 billion Ponzi scheme, why has Al Gore been given a pass for being the face and voice of the global-warming fraud and, by extension, the exchanges established to buy and sell worthless carbon credits? Isn't lying under oath to Congress a crime? My other question is this: Why is any legitimate news organization still quoting him as if there is a scintilla of truth to his pronouncements about global warming? Finally, at what point does Gore so completely disgrace himself that no one on planet Earth will believe anything he says?

As bad as Bush was, Gore would have been even worse. We wouldn't even have cars anymore.
Gore could have stroked out the miinute after he was inaugurated and done a better job than Bush did. Do you realize that EVERYTHING Boy Blunder did turned to crap? Not just one thing...not just half...EVERYTHING... The Budget National Security International Relations Two wars Financial Market de-regulation Misson Accomplished... EVERYTHING...
Maybe so, maybe. But I still think Gore would have been worse.
Really? When did THAT start?
Socialist ass-hats think "There will be no more money when the U.S. dollar has no value, until that time we can keep printing more." And yes, that IS from LF's answer to Ben Bernanke, go65, leading disfunctional and delusional socialist of the forum. "You want me to kill THE ENEMIES of Jappos, I'll kill THE ENEMIES of Jappos, Rebs, or Sioux, or Cheyenne... For 500 bucks a month I'll kill whoever you want. But keep one thing in mind: I'd happily kill you for free." Algren, "The Last Samurai" A no brainer versus a brainer? That's a no brainer.
My spidey sense detected that gore was dishonest. So, even if Bush was stupid, which I don't concede, I'd rather have a no brainer than a cheat.
"Saddam has weapons of mass destruction." How do you believe that Gore would have topped that?
No brainers in high positions get used by people who are cheats - its all the same.
Merchants have no country. The mere spot they stand on does not constitute so strong an attachment as that from which they draw their gains. Thomas Jefferson
I believe he did have WMD's, lol. Top that!
Agreed.
Top that! Um...uh...er...
Maybe, Willie, by stating it himself: "Iraq does pose a serious threat to the stability of the Persian Gulf and we should organize an international coalition to eliminate his access to weapons of mass destruction. Iraq's search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to completely deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power." -- Al Gore, 2002
Now, I know I’m not going to change the minds of any of the True Believers…those who read all of Reverend Al’s sermons, and say things like, “You know, global warming can mean warmer OR colder, wetter OR drier, cloudier OR sunnier, windier OR calmer, …”. Can I get an ‘amen’??
He might not have ignored warnings that bin Laden was planning hijackings, and he wouldn't have invaded Iraq.
Since January 3, 2011, Republicans have controlled the power of the purse.
