Ignoring the Academy Award won by the film, as well as rumors that former U.S. vice-president Al Gore is in line for a Nobel Peace Prize, a United Kingdom High Court judge said Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” was “assembled by a cretin of minimal understanding and even less sense.” The movie has been distributed to more than 3500 schools for children aged 11 to 14 as part of their “Climate Change” curriculum.
The case reached the court when truck driver and father of two, Stewart Dimmock brought action to ban the film from UK schools. The court’s ruling substantially agreed with Dimmock’s contention that the film is “unfit for schools” because it contains scientific inaccuracies, “sentimental mush” and is politically biased.
Gore called the ruling “deplorable” and promised that “this judge and his ilk will pay a heavy price for their efforts to thwart me when I am named global climate czar next year.”

Very humorous, with a bite. Thanks for posting.
