Al Gore's Incredibly Shrinking Credibility
Red County ^ | Allan Caruba

Posted on 02/11/2011 11:23:57 AM PST by lbryce

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.

Amazing image. One of the best I've seen in the Al Gore genre of ridicule.

I just read today, that Gore's Current TV, has 18,000 viewers in prime time. Not to worry, Olbermann is there now, that will add the tens of his loyal followers.

If Gore truly believed that global warming was melting the polar ice caps and will precipitously raise sea levels, why the heck would he buy a $9 million seaside mansion?

Convincing the public that Global Warming is a true eventuality is big part of the quest for population control.
