Mr. Gore said he was convinced that Americans would move on the issue, not just because of his documentary Oh Al, no need to be so modest. If Earth gets saved, we'll know who's responsible. It's all you, baby.

"the illustrated climate lecture he has given more than 1,000 times "
Yet since Al Gore was offered the opportunity to facilitate serious debate on the underlying science of global climate change, 4 months and a half have elapsed. Despite milking lucrative speaking engagements and book deals with his global warming schtick he declines any such debate.

the Supreme Court vote that denied Mr. Gore a chance to win the 2000 presidential election. Sorry, I stopped reading right there. Was the article interesting?

"In 1941 it was impossible for us to build 1,000 airplanes. In 1942 it was easy. As this pattern becomes ever more clear, there will be a rising public demand for action."
WRONG AGAIN, Al!! Can't you take the trouble to get anything right? We built 1209 military aircraft in 1940 and 8723 in 1941!! While the general point is correct that we vastly upped production in 1942 as we focused the nation's efforts on winning WWII, it is disturbing that the former VP of the USA can't get his facts straight even on such an elementary point that he makes a central example for his argument. What a TURKEY.
As usual, Algore can't bother to get even the most elementary facts straight. This aside of his about aircraft production is totally off -- though his point about how vastly we could increase aircraft production is still correct, it is another annoying example of how he just doesn't do his homework on ANYTHING: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_aircraft_production_during_World_War_II

And the scene has nothing to do with the Supreme Court vote that denied Mr. Gore a chance to win steal the 2000 presidential election.

Sorry, I stopped reading right there. Was the article interesting?Why would I post it if I didn't think it was interesting? I believe this is Gore's start at a political comeback for the 2008 campaign.

I'm sure Gore wants to have some involvement in the 2008 race, but there's no way in hell he's going to be a serious candidate. The strongest evidence of this is right in this article . . .
He laments being unable so far to awaken the public to what he calls a "planetary emergency" . . .
His problem is that he's go so far out on a limb to market himself as an expert on an issue that most Americans don't give a sh!t about.
He may as well be campaigning on the theme that the sun is going to burn out someday.

Anytime a political party is in serious decline, people like Gore grab leadership positions.
Remember, Hitler became leader of the German National Socialist Worker's Party when it had only seven members and 22 pfennies in the treasury.
To: neverdem
I'll be inclined to take Al seriously about global warming as soon as he comes out for crash development of nuclear power. His position at the moment, as I understand it, is that global warming threatens the end of the human race but that the Yucca Mountain repository is too dangerous to build.

Let me get this straight, 120,000 years ago we had our first ice age and before that it must have been relatively warm for at least through out the jurassic until the ice. The last glacial maximum was 20,000 years ago and this twit thinks it is hot after a couple of hundred years where trends take millennia and it may not be as hot as it has been since the lgm. It may be we are headed for another glacial maximum. The best we can do is be wealthy enough to adapt to the change, not, retreat back into the cave.
