On January 26, 2006, former Vice President, current climate alarmist and centimillionaire Al Gore told the Associated Press's David Germain that "unless drastic measures to reduce greenhouse gases are taken within the next 10 years, the world will reach a point of no return." .
Tuesday, as DC and much of the Northeast finishes digging out from a serious and possibly historic weekend snowstorm, will be the tenth anniversary of Gore's "planetary emergency" warning. The "global warming" true believers in the establishment press will never hold Gore accountable for his nonsense, which is why going to alternative sources such as the editorials at Investor's Business Daily is so necessary. On Friday, IBD called Gore out, identifying "Five Ways We Know Al Gore's Been Running A Global Warming Racket" (links are in original; bolds are mine):

He won an Oscar and a Peace Prize and a bunch of other stuff for that drivel. All the money for his carbon shares. He should not be allowed in public places: he should be booed right out. He’s such a lying charlatan.
I don’t know where he belongs, on an ice floe at sea, or thrown into a volcano.
LOL... yup, several orders of magnitude wrong, Hitler had a better shot
I knew about the ridiculous peace price, but can’t find anything on him receiving an Oscar.
lol
Don't you mean his mustache?
Elitists and their wanna-bees are all oh-so-jealous of the scam Algore’s been running! Getting in on the ground floor is soooo important! After the rubes figure out they’ve been fleeced, Algore, John Hansen, Dubai-based BHO, and those like them will have decamped to their respective foreign havens where they’ll be out of reach of those with pay-back on their minds. They’ll laugh as they toast each other on big-screen conference calls from a distance.

“Nixon, the same RINO POTUS who brought us wage & price controls and Watergate”
Whenever Watergate is brought up, people of good faith should immediately come back with the facts.
Both the Stupid and the Evil parties wine and dine moneyed citizens as part of their efforts to obtain donations. They try to get the citizen’s head spinning by inviting him to any event that will put him in the company of the famous and powerful.
At that particular time, in the run-up to the 1972 election, the demonrats had expanded this itinerary to include treating potential donors to the services of prostitutes, paid for out of DNC money—you know, Joe Sixpack’s ten bucks that he contributed to have a voice in our representative republic.
That was a felony. Actually, each instance was a separate felony.
Some of Nixon’s subordinates, without his knowledge, decided to try and obtain documentary proof of this, with the intention of exposing the demonrats’ felonious behavior. Unfortunately for America, for the people of South Viet Nam, and for mankind in general, they were not practiced and proficient criminals. As one might have guessed, they made a hash of it.
Nixon’s subordinates, then, were guilty of conspiracy to expose multiple felonies involving the improper use of DNC funds to pay prostitutes.
When his subordinates finally told him the truth, Nixon decided it would be best to cover up this trifling indiscretion. This was entirely reasonable, in view of the heinous crimes that the media had covered up for Roosevelt, maybe Truman, certainly Kennedy, and even Johnson. (Later, they even covered up murder for a sitting president.)
The demonrats, knowing that they had the media in their pocket, decided to lie, lie, lie, and spin, spin, spin, and artificially escalated this tempest in a teapot to the status of a (barf alert) “constitutional crisis.”
They had a few reasons for knifing Nixon.
1. Nixon had been involved in the effort to root foreign agents of influence out of the State Department and other government posts, which was an unforgivable sin against the Evil One.
2. The huge cloud of dust they raised with their hysterical blather about Nixon’s “crimes” completely obscured the reason for the break in: multiple demonrat felonies, involving a vice that most of America still found repugnant.
3. Nixon’s Vietnamization program had succeeded, and he was on the brink of Peace with Honor in Viet Nam. That would have been a ghastly defeat for the left.
And, of course, a hodge-podge of obvious reasons: To embarrass the GOP, to demoralize the Silent Majority, to move the demonrats further to the left, and to forestall any good things Nixon might have done in a second term, with reelection off the table. You can probably name others.
With their customary shameless dishonesty, the left has elevated the Watergate incident to near-mythical status, like the assassination of Abe Lincoln or the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. This needs to be contradicted with the truth at every opportunity.
I think it’s important, because every time a lib realizes that one of the left’s axiomatic propositions is nothing but lies and deceit, the possibility exists that he will begin to question other planks in their platform.
LOL, hadn’t heard Algore sing in awhile, thanks!
Poor Al, he failed his father’s directive that he become President, and it’s been all downhill from his electoral loss. The Global Warming Scam he put together has been a second failure so I’m guessing “daddy has told him from the grave” once again that he’s an abject failure. Flipper was smart to get out when she did.
>>Remember when it was called global warming?
I remember when it was global cooling. When I was a 3rd grader back in 1971, our science teacher explained to us that by the time we were 35, an ice sheet would cover most of North America, that there would be no more oil to burn for heat, that the Earth would not be able to feed the population, that the water would all be polluted, and that the air would be poisonous. But the coming nuclear war would probably kill us all first.
Al Gore, who almost was president, should be tied up naked on a pole in the NYC today.
Great Post!
Full beard and mustache. For over 30 years now, with only two individual 1-week periods of being clean-shaven...
My aunt back in the 70’s collects those old Time mags and I saw one back in the 90’s a 1975 or 78 edition that we will have a frozen ice age in 2004.
Inconvenient Truth won the 2007 Oscar for Best Documentary. Technically the award went to director Davis Guggenheim, but everyone knows it was Al Gore the brainwashed Academy was voting for.
IMDB is a good source for all industry awards given to a film.
To DC, it’s the end of the world, to someone like me, from Buffalo, it would be ‘you-gotta-get-up-an-hour-and-a-half-earlier’ to clean out the driveway.
Worst of all, is the money these charlatans are costing you and me, the taxpayers!
The EPA has power, due to this scam. The entire U.S. clean coal industry has been shut down, due to this scam.
Your car costs thousands more than it needs to, due to this scam.
Algore should be hunted down and made accountable for the entire damages this foolishness has caused.
And as G. Gordon Liddy has stated in the past, John Dean's wife was one of the calls girls that the DNC used to ply to their donors (before she married Dean.) One of the purposes of the Watergate operation was to get/remove evidence of that embarrassing fact.
