Gore would not answer any questions from the media after the event.

Of course not. Somebody might have questioned the accuracy of that study.

I don't pollute very much. Somebody want to buy my offsets? Carbon at $3.99/cwt!

[Barney Gumble]

Yeah, I saw that when I read it yesterday. Liberals live on soundbites. They can't handle the debate. That's why they've declared "debate over" on global warming.

[llevrok]

The media might be balanced (in Gore's mind), but he's certainly off his rocker!

OK so here is a media take, as well as a "GORE SCIENCE" or "MORE SCIENCE" approach to Global Warming. Former Canadian Defense Minister.

Zero percent of scientist disagree with global warming?

Where did Al get those numbers?
On second thought I dont want to know!

Gore has a look on his face that someday he'll end up in a straight jacket. He is one big-time loony bird.

Somebody want to buy my offsets?

There was an article yesterday that says Gore is buying his "offsets" from a brokerage that he set up.

This whole thing is to get people to send him money.

The media might be balanced (in Gore's mind), but he's certainly off his rocker!

About a year after the 2000 election, Gore deigned to do a one-on-one with Alan Colmes.

Algor said FNC was not "fair and balanced". Colmes said "There's me, and so and so, etc." Algor just kept shaking his head no, saying "You guys don't count...".

Colmes was flabergasted, from the look on his face.

Here's the money quote from Gore: "They have failed to report that it is the consensus and instead have chosen … balance as bias."

balance as bias - it's what all lib's really believe. We conservatives would just like the media to just be in the same ballpark with balance once in a while.

[Fierce Allegiance]

Climate change on earth, or mars, because both are happening. There are no SUV's or coal fired power plants on mars, to my knowledge.

Every time fatass opens his greenhouse gas producing piehole he shows the not-hard-of-thinking part of the world what a fear-mongering, idiotarian, charlatan he really is

"You guys don't count...".

Gore's "climate crisis" crusade has two purposes: (1) His movement is a stealth presidential campaign. He has been traveling all over the country speaking, getting lots of press, and giving his movie away to anyone who hasn't already paid to see it. He is gathering lists of donors and volunteers which he can turn into a presidential campaign when the time comes. (2) Democrats need a crisis that will eclipse the War on Terror and the Republican advantage on national security. Bill Clinton has said that "global warming" is a bigger threat than terrorism. Gore has said it is the "greatest threat to mankind in history"--melting ice caps trump Osama Bin Laden.

Gore will be happy when he can dump the whole charade. He is about as "green" as Captain Hazelwood of the Exxon Valdez.

Yup. Watching Al is like going to a car race. You just know there will be a grisly car crash

Al Gore apparently lives in his own little world. There very well could be warming there, who am I to say there is not.

[USMA '71]

Zero percent of scientist disagree with global warming?Where did Al get those numbers? On second thought I don't want to know!

Being that this is a scientific subject, "rectal-linear extraction" is the scientific term that describes how Algore arrived at his conclusion. 'Nuff said.

[Eva]

I wish that half the media wasn't buying into consensus science. If you parse Gore's words, you realize that he doesn't even claim to be scientificly factual, only a consensus.

Sorry Al, we are just not buying into your global warming metanarrative and feminized science.
