Global Warming's Biggest Winners
Washington Times ^ | March 3, 2010 | Editorial staff

Posted on 03/03/2010 8:22:51 PM PST by raptor22

The greatest scandal connected to global warming is not exaggeration, fraud or destruction of data to conceal the weakness of the argument. It is those who are personally profiting from promoting this fantasy at the expense of the rest of us.

Al Gore is the most visible beneficiary. The world's greatest climate-change fear-monger has amassed millions in book sales and speaking fees. His science-fiction movie, "An Inconvenient Truth," won an Academy Award for best documentary and 21 other film awards. He was co-recipient of the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize for his "efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about man-made climate change, and to lay the foundations for the measures that are needed to counteract such change."

Someone said today, can’t remember if it was on the radio or TV, that Algore might have made close to 1 billion dollars so far with his globaloney hoax and scam. Yikes!

I can see why he and his enviroloonies are all starting to panic. There are no jobs out there. If they lose this gig, they’re sunk.

Just my observation, but the Nobel Peace Prize, except for the money, seems pretty much meaningless. For crying out loud, even Obama got one, and what has he done, besides collect it? It’s like giving failing students passing grades; what value have they? Is it that nobody is a loser, so losers don’t get their little feelbads hurt?

I say rescind the Nobel Peace Price committee. It’s a sewer as stinky as the UN.
