The way Blood and Gore are talking, they sure sound like they plan to make a lot of money off global warming.

Blood and Gore. You just can't make this stuff up.

Gore To Speak At RSA: Press Not InvitedThis year’s high-profile keynote at San Francisco’s RSA Conference will be blessed with the presence of former Vice President Al Gore, who will present a keynote speech on the event’s closing day.

However, VARs, vendors and other attendees will have to let journalists know how it goes — according to an agreement with the former Vice President, members of the press will not be allowed to attend the event. Naturally, video recordings, broadcasts and photography are all prohibited as well.

Alex Kirschner, a conference media contact, said that excluding the press from the keynote was not the decision of RSA but rather was due to a special request included in Gore’s speaking contract. Kirschner added that most of Gore’s contracts included language that prohibited press from attending his speeches.

Gore’s sudden camera shyness comes as a stark contrast to last year’s RSA keynote presented by former Secretary of State Colin Powell, who seemed to have no problem opening the doors to press and public.

Kirschner said that Gore, who received Nobel Peace Prize in 2007, will be giving a speech on emerging green technologies, but didn’t provide specifics. “When it’s somebody this high profile, it’s difficult to get or divulge any more information than that,” said Kirschner.

Likewise, RSA could not elaborate further on the terms of the contract. Thus far, Gore’s reasons for excluding the press are completely subject to speculation. A recent ecorazzi.com blog post suggested that the possibility still exists, albeit slim at best, that Democrats might actually nominate Gore as the presidential candidate that will ultimately break the insufferable Clinton-Obama deadlock. Amid the rumors that the former Vice President could be positioning himself as a potential contender to the Oval Office, it could be that Gore is simply taking advantage of the necessary security precautions granted to all presidential candidates.

Gore’s keynote will be presented Friday, April 11 in Hall D of San Francisco’s Moscone Center.

Let’s not forget, Al Gore is just following what he saw Bill Clinton do, and helped Bill Clinton do.

Everyone is so concerned because Bill Clinton gave away technology to foreign nations.

That is merely the smoke in front of the mirror.

What he did, and taught Al to do, is to sell exclusive access to markets, even creating artificial markets (like GW) through legislation.

It is how Mochter Riady got rich. Clinton and Gore outlawed U.S. coal, and ensured Riady was the only ‘other source’.


GW and Carbon Credits are merely an Artificial Market created by legislation for the benefit of the legislators, and their investors.

Gore’s personal financial involvement is blatant, especially through Goldman Sachs and the creator of Gore’s very own London-based hedge fund, Generation Investment Management.

Generation Investment Management.....GIM-me.

Al Gore Junior and his wife Tipper pretended to give a damn about parental issues like teen drug use and anti-social behavior and aberrant sexuality in the music industry. Of course he immediately followed that with a play for the 1988 Democrat presidential bid.

He's as phony as a $3 bill.

“Campbell said neither Gore nor any other members of GIM’s board will make a buck from the expansion of carbon trading. “To suggest then that they are somehow benefiting from the growth of this industry betrays a complete lack of knowledge of the carbon offset industry,” Campbell said.”


Actually, it’s true.

Think about Pyramid schemes. The tip of the triangle starts the original investment, and profits from that.

As the down line gets longer, there is still profit, but it is spread over a larger base, and there are too many crooked fingers in the pot.

When that happens, the original investors pull out with their profits and move on to the next scheme.


Al doesn’t profit from sales of carbon credits. He profits from ‘advising’ and ‘investment handling’ for the wealthy elite.

Al does profit from controlling the resources of information on the internet. That is why he is a major stockholder of Google.

Which is buying Yahoo.

I think you are right but I do think the left fully understands the coupe that would be accomplished if they succeed it implementing an environmentalist dictatorship.

What a baldfaced lie.

Denying the ka-ching machine. Unbelievable.

“Gore proclaims: “What we are going to have to put in place is a combination of the Manhattan Project, the Apollo project, and the Marshall Plan, and scale it globally. It’d be promising too much to say we can do it on our own, but we intend to do our part.””

What a farce, but on the other hand might be a good way to conquer Asia. Try getting India, China and S.E. Asia and Korea to play that game and they’ll all die of laughter.

The founder of the Weather Channel wants to sue Al Gore for fraud, hoping a legal debate will settle the global-warming debate once and for all. John Coleman, who founded the cable network in 1982, suggests suing for fraud proponents of global warming, including Al Gore, and companies that sell carbon credits. "Is he committing financial fraud? That is the question," Coleman said.
