Gore: Global Warming More Serious Than Terrorism

The United States has been waging a war on international terrorism for more than four years, but what does Al Gore think is a more serious issue?

Global warming.

In in interview with Australia's The Age, the 2000 Democratic presidential nominee and former senator drew parallels between those who dispute global warming, and its investment implications, with Neville Chamberlain and others who wanted to appease the Nazis before World War II.

Winston Churchill warned in the 1930s that a storm was gathering and democratic nations would be forced to "sip from the bitter cup" until they reasserted their moral authority.

"The time of half-measure has passed. We are entering a period of consequences," says Gore, quoting Churchill.

"What changed in the U.S. with Hurricane Katrina was a feeling that we have entered a period of consequences and that bitter cup will be offered to us again and again until we exert our moral authority and respond appropriately," he says. "I don't want to diminish the threat of terrorism at all, it is extremely serious, but on a long-term global basis, global warming is the most serious problem we are facing."

Gore is the co-founder and chairman of the British-based sustainable investing company Generation Investment.

I think he's right. If we don't get these environazis to sitdown and STFU, we won't be able to fight the terrorists.

The Clinton administration continues to insist they took terrorism seriously and as their number one concern.

Then they open their mouths again and we realize just what dangerously frivolous people were in that administration.

In liberal think, I suppose it does.

Every time it rains, it's Americas fault.
Every time a terrorist kills innocents, it's Americas fault.

THANK GOD BUSH WON
Twice

Oh, yeah, the remote possibility that winters might be one or two degrees warmer on average in a hundred years, would be a LOT more deadly than being blown up, shot or beheaded or stoned to death by some bearded maniac.

Can't you stupid warmongering conservatives see this?

Shut up Alwhore.

The biggest problem we have right now is rich leftist social engineers like George Soros.

The funny thing is that in the unlikely event that global warming even exists, which I doubt, the result would be COOLER temperatures. This was actually demonstrated in the leftist propoganda movie "The Day After Tomorrow." The reality is that global warming would occur at the poles and melt the polar icecaps, the result would be colder waters and cooler temperatures.
