I find this commercial extremely offensive. To compare global warming kooks with men who sacrificed and saw their fellow soldiers be blown apart on the beaches is sickening.

It's just as bad to compare someone who marched in a protest march in the 60’s with those at Normandy.

Figures, Al Bore had a hand in this. Look what I just found...

Gore launches $300 mln climate change campaign

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Al Gore, former U.S. vice president, Academy Award winner and Nobel peace laureate, on Monday launched a $300 million, three-year campaign to mobilize Americans on climate change.

"We can solve the climate crisis, but it will require a major shift in public opinion and engagement," Gore said in a statement.

(snip)

A longtime environmental activist, Gore chairs the Alliance for Climate Protection, which unveiled the "We" campaign with a series of videos, a Web site -- www.wecansolveit.org -- and a television advertisement set to air during such programs as "American Idol," "House," and "Law & Order."

The first ad likens the battle against climate change to U.S. troops storming the beaches at Normandy during World War Two, the struggle for civil rights and the drive to send humans to the moon.

"We didn't wait for someone else" to tackle these historic problems, the actor William H. Macy says in the spot. "We can't wait for someone else to solve the global climate crisis. We need to act now."

Future spots are expected to feature such "unlikely allies" as civil rights activist Al Sharpton and conservative preacher Pat Robertson, and country singers Toby Keith and the Dixie Chicks speaking together against climate change.

"What's different about this (campaign) is for the first time ever, we're going to be able to reach the general public in their daily lives through television, through media, through community-based organizations ... and online," Cathy Zoi, the alliance's chief executive officer, said by telephone.

The more this asshat opens his piehole, the more stupid he looks. I have seen this stupid commercial and all I do is roll my eyes. The very idea of likening his fake cause to the invasion of Nazi-held Europe is beyond ludicrous.

[norraad]

Yeah, whatever happened to sendin' humans to the moon? As, in,

"You know where your goin', . . Alice,

To the M O O N!!"

[Red6]

Normandy and Global Warming have nothing in common.

However, Gore and those that follow this nonsense are like the Taliban, they are fundamentalists.

[Izzy Dunne]

Is anybody asking where the he77 did AlGore get three hundred million dollars?

[Thombo2]

Al Gore-modern day snake oil salesman?Rhetorical question:Is he so dumb/naive that he actually believes in global warning,or is he just in it for the money and laughing all the way to the bank?

[Gorzaloon]

"We can solve the climate crisis, but it will require a major shift in publi-

--What? -- I can feel warming even now as I speak!

It is all around my pantcuffs and travelling up my leg...it's..

OH. Gorzaloon peeing on me again."

For comparison to the $300 million spent on TV ads (propping up the MSM that props up leftism), there is a 3-year campaign by Rotary International to raise $100,000,000, matched by another $100,000,000 by the Gates foundation, to eradicate polio from the face of the planet.

When I first saw this ad I thought it was an ad to support the war! Then it went into global warming...good grief!!!

I saw that stupid ad. At the end, it said something about the “global climate crisis.” I guess that’s so they don’t have to pay for two separate ads, when it changes from “global warming” back to “global cooling” again.

[PGalt]

D-Day was the day Al Gore got his report card.

[MaxMax]

300 Million? Gore sure knows how to spend those carbon credits..

[ovrtaxt]

Cool. When do we get to call in airstrikes against the eviro-whacks?

[skeptoid]

Gorzo the Great on the way to his next engagement.

[G Larry]

Harvey the Rabbit is a more apt comparison, as “Global Warming” is Al’s invisable friend.

[RC2]

If Al Gore is so worried about the world, why doesn’t he do all this work for free? It would seem that if he is such a good citizen, he would help out the world. Remember folks.........everyone of these dooms day guys, say the problems will happen within 5-10 years...........no matter what century they are in. This stuff has been going on since the beginning of time. Israel is still waiting for the messiah to come. I’m not slamming the Jews..........but as an example, when the messiah comes, there is no need to collect any more money from the people to build their places of worship.........the messiah already came. Get it??????????

[Maelstorm]

If Gore and his ilk don’t control their reach they may get a D-Day.

[DGHoodini]

Gores’ lies, and those of the rest who are invested in ‘The Six Trillion Dollar Scam’ become more bizzare, with every passing day.
