Time to muffle Al Gore's exhaust pipe
Toronto Sun ^ | May 1, 2007 | Peter Worthington

One could call it the impudence of Al Gore.

Here's a guy who, for eight years, was vice-president of United States and during those eight years could not persuade the Senate to take action against the dreaded myth of greenhouse gases.

In fact, the Senate voted 95-0 against the Kyoto accords, which Canada backed enthusiastically but (fortunately) did nothing about.

Yet now that he's an Academy Award winner in documentary films (An Inconvenient Truth), and aspires to be a Nobel Peace Prize winner, he misses no occasion to make a nuisance of himself by lecturing others and pontificating to the applause of his think-alikes.

We expect that from Al Gore -- one of the more foolish Americans loose on the planet lusting for the spotlight, and dispensing his version of ecological wisdom to save us all from ourselves.

Gore's criticism of Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the Conservative government's so-called "green plan" is not only unseemly and offensive for a former American vice-president, but wrong.

[Snip]

By the way, whatever happened to the flatulations of cattle, that supposedly were poisoning the atmosphere at a rate to match SUVs? Before rude cows threatened the purity of our air, one presumes the farts of millions of buffalo that roamed North America also increased CO2 levels and endangered the planet?

Every season a new threat emerges, but Al Gore goes on and on.

Another good Canadian dig at AlGore for his eco-stupidity in condemning our neighbors for not implementing the Kyoto Accord as per Bonehead's desires.

Once again, my deepest and most profound apologies.

I’m becoming weary of making the apologies, I never voted for that pompous POS for anything, and...well, check my tagline for further editorial comments on Saint Al of the Ecofreak Indulgences and all of his playmates.

The only bright side is that Gore’s babbling is probably driving his media apostles’ credibility and circulation into the crapper along with his own.

LOL!

You are no more responsible for the Goracle than I am for Jean Chretien.

A pox on both their houses.

There is a solution. Entice environmental wackos to bring a couple of big watermelons to the flightline where his Gulfstream is parked. Stick them in the exhaust. That will blow some fuses that are not easy to replace. The poor plane will just sit there. With watermelons sticking out.

... and ironic - what with watermelons sharing with Gore & his ilk the same green exterior & red interior.
