Al Gore has taken some heat lately for spreading the word about global warming.
First there were the allegations by a conservative group, the day after Gore collected an Oscar for his movie "An Inconvenient Truth," that his Nashville mansion consumes more than 20 times as much electricity as the average American household. Then there were charges that zinc mining on Tennessee property owned by Gore tarnished his environmentalist credentials.
By the time he arrived on Capitol Hill this past week to testify about his signature issue, the barbs Gore's congressional adversaries hurled at him sounded relatively benign.
"It seems that everything is blamed on global warming," Republican Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma complained. "How come you guys never seem to notice when it gets cold?"
He then confronted Gore with the number of record cold temperatures measured at U.S. weather stations during the month of January. (This would be the same January that was part of the warmest Northern Hemisphere winter on record.)
"We need to be deliberative and careful when we talk about so-called scientific facts," Republican Rep. Joe Barton of Texas lectured, before enumerating a list of things he believed Gore got wrong in the award-winning documentary.
One of the problems Gore, environmentalists and the scientific community have in conveying the seriousness of global warming is that its most severe effects to date have been felt in the polar regions, far from the places where most politicians and their constituents live.

AL GORE CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH
If he's taking any heat, it's only because he's wrong, and deceiving a lot of people to be wrong also.

Ping me if you find one I've missed.
And when this doesn't work, then the next forecast will be for 50 feet sea level rise by 2200 and it will be our great-great-great-great-great-great grandchildren who will suffer, the poor darlings.
Isin't it interesting that just about all of the geographic references made by global warming alarmists are far, far from any place most of us could check on?
Al is just full of Pyles of Gorebage. I think he should change his name to Al Gomer.
Proof (if any were needed) that there is a God.
A freeper has captured this fool, Gore, in all his self-importance:
With thanx to you for the brilliant post previously.
I liked the first 30 minutes where Gore couldn't tell the difference between realty and fantasy.
"Al Gore has taken some heat lately for spreading the word about global warming. "
Al Gore has taken some heat lately for spreading lies about global warming. Much better...
"global warming is mostly sensed in the liberal psyche..."
it sure is. it's sensed as an opportunity to exercise total government power on an unprededented scale.
(they're such scu&bags.)
All truths are an inconvenience to AlGore and most liberals...
They look and act more intelligent than Algore.
Well, you teed this one up.
Has he tried Preparation H for his piles?
It doesn't matter is the point IMO.
We could be the worst thing to happen to the earth (as the liberal moonbat's profess) and still we are a far cry from being as powerful as Mother nature.
We are a part of nature, NOT the instigators of it!
The Bloviator AlGore however thinks he is God himself guiding his children down the path of salvation and many actually believe it to be true.
As I have stated many times in the past "P.T. Barnum is rolling in his grave with envy".
They have more interesting speak also....
Sounds like ABC is about to declare Gore the messiah.
What do you expect from ABCDisney? Their political editor rallied the team to defend Kerry in the 2004 election saying it was their duty to the American voter.
