BIG surprise!
In Canada this could be ruled a “hate crime”.
The GW SHAM is so big, it is like trying to hide a gorilla in your living room....who can not miss it??? Yes, I know, a deaf, dumb and blind liberal.
Human-caused global warming has been so over-sold, the backlash is going to be a thing of beauty.
Usually the Canadians only get Liberal Party PC lies in their press. This is a refreshing exception, especially since the Moron False God Al Gore is so hateful to the Canadians.
O.K., where's the "news"?
canadians be slow learners!
An eerie reminder. I was in the seventh grade when we had a gym teacher stand in for our history teacher. It was the height of the "Cold War" and one of the other students asked, "What is Communism?"
His answer was, "It's 'take from the rich and give to the poor. That's all it is; take from the rich and give to the poor."
Seventh graders don't often think about what teachers tell them, just absorb it. It wasn't until years later that I wondered if this guy really had an agenda, because the school we were in was in a poor area.
Most long-term researchers on climate and weather, most of whom we still haven't heard from, have simply chuckled and gone about their business.
Most of us who have worked all our lives in technical and scientific professions have met the few oddballs: seemingly competent, but with character flaws which color their judgement and cancels out whatever technical excellence they could contribute to their field.
Personally, I have met a half dozen or so; fortunately, in private business, they seem to more on regularly.
In government, it seems, they hang around forever, and become media darlings.
They do well with the neurotics like themselves and, of course, with the below 50-IQ contingent. The remarkable thing is that there are so many in this latter category.
If Hitler's propaganda speeches and Joseph Goebbels' regular press releases were given in videotape form to these doofuses, they would show that too.
Perhaps the requirement for teachers should involve more than simply the ability to teach.
File under “Stories You Won’t See In The MSM.”
I believe that a half-truth is a whole lie and an over-representation of facts is lying.
"Nobody is interested in solutions if they don't think there's a problem. Given that starting point,I believe it is appropriate to have an OVER-REPRESENTATION OF FACTUAL PRESENTATIONS on how dangerous (global warming) is..." -- Al Gore
Al "the boob" Gore says his lies are justified. You now see the consequences of educators also believing his lies are justified. His lies became the lies of the educators when they accepted responsibility for Al Gores lies.
Even an article challenging the hype doesn't quite "get it".
The "settled issue" according to Mr. Bore is not about theories; it is about science. Science is not subject to debate. Only opinion, including "theories" can be demagogued into endless foolishness.
Reminds me of one of my favorite Twain quotes:
"Now, if I wanted to be one of those ponderous scientific people, and 'let on' to prove what had occurred in the remote past by what had occurred in a given time in the recent past, or what will occur in the far future by what has occurred in late years, what an opportunity is here! Geology never had such a chance, nor such exact data to argue from! Nor 'development of species,' either! Glacial epochs are great things, but they are vague -- vague. Please observe: --
In the space of one hundred and seventy-six years the Lower Mississippi has shortened itself two hundred and forty-two miles. That is an average of a trifle over one mile and a third per year. Therefore, any calm person, who is not blind or idiotic, can see that in the Old Oolitic Silurian Period,' just a million years ago next November, the Lower Mississippi River was upwards of one million three hundred thousand miles long, and stuck out over the Gulf of Mexico like a fishing-rod. And by the same token any person can see that seven hundred and forty-two years from now the Lower Mississippi will be only a mile and three-quarters long, and Cairo and New Orleans will have joined their streets together, and be plodding comfortably along under a single mayor and a mutual board of aldermen. There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale returns of conjecture out of such a trifling investment of fact.
Algore is going around the country TRAINING teachers and folks who agree with him in the way to present this in classrooms and small groups in their towns. This is a like a burgeoning religious movement, with the recent converts being zealots for the cause. These training sessions teach the folks to present the arguments against GW, then immediately shoot them down as being bought and paid for by the oil industry.
Schools will see a lot more of this as a result of these zealots, and unless parents fight for the kids to have a balancing viewpoint, it's not going to happen. Parents need to make SURE of exactly what's in the 'curriculum' that will be presented to their kids, and have some alternative materials, like the video "The Great Global Warming Swindle" on hand to make SURE the school presents a balance to the climate hysteria.
“So How Did it Become Required Classroom Viewing?”
DUH!
Doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that one out.
Because they are trying to brainwash you.
Good for the Canadian press!
However, it’s not too hard to disprove a piece of junk like that, it doesn’t take experts. I’m only a high school senior and even I could refute Gore’s claims.
