I’m beginning to think we conservatives should be GRATEFUL that Al Gore has taken up this cause.

With his fraud, obvious deceit, hypocrisy and pomposity, Gore has turned what was recently a psuedo-scientific cause celeb into a laughingstock that fewer people take seriously every day.

It reminds me of what Bill Clinton did for the Women’s Rights issue. By embracing it publicly yet mocking it with his own personal actions (and the feminist movement speakers standing by him), he set feminism back 30 years. Al Gore may yet do the same for environmentalism.

We may look back someday and owe this moron a debt of thanks.

The downside is that any project that could potentially be perceived as being 'green' tends to get wrapped in with the Al Gore Hysteria...and when the hysteria dies some projects could die with it.

"With his fraud, obvious deceit, hypocrisy and pomposity, Gore has turned what was recently a psuedo-scientific cause celeb into a laughingstock that fewer people take seriously every day."

Unfortunately, the "fraud" is taken so seriously throughout Europe that UK's UN Ambassador has gotten the Security Council to address climate change as "a security threat to the world".

UK is president of the Security Council for a while. Watch next week to see how it is handled.

Beckett takes climate change debate to UN

Margaret Beckett, the Foreign Secretary, will chair the first UN Security Council debate on climate change this month after Britain successfully pushed it to the top of the international agenda.

Overcoming reservations from Russia, China and Qatar, British diplomats have scheduled the unprecedented session for April 17 during Britain’s month-long presidency of the 15-nation council.

The move is tantamount to declaring global warming a threat to global security because the Security Council deals only with threats to international peace and security.

“I’m beginning to think we conservatives should be GRATEFUL that Al Gore has taken up this cause.”

“With his fraud, obvious deceit, hypocrisy and pomposity, Gore has turned what was recently a psuedo-scientific cause celeb into a laughingstock that fewer people take seriously every day.”

If he decides to run as the Green Presidential candidate, the MSM will be forced to expose him as a fraud. The liberals can’t have the Goron sucking votes away in 2008.

If he runs as a green, exposure of the truth re his Gorebull Warming BS will not stop millions of idiots from voting for him.
