Gore Losing the War: 59% Don't Believe Man Is Warming the Planet

Gore Losing the War: 59% Don't Believe Man Is Warming the Planet By Noel Sheppard Created 2009-01-19 13:28

He won an Oscar and a Nobel Peace Prize, but a recent poll suggests the Global Warmingist-in-Chief Al Gore is losing his propaganda war to convince Americans carbon dioxide is destroying the planet.

In fact, the number of people who believe that long-term planetary trends are responsible for the relatively small increase in temperatures in recent decades rose ten percent since last April while those viewing it as a man-made problem have decreased by six percent.

Talk about your inconvenient truths!

This has got to be bad news for a man that has bet his reputation as well as his very fortune on people buying into his junk science. As reported [1] by Rasmussen Reports Monday:

Forty-four percent (44%) of U.S. voters now say long-term planetary trends are the cause of global warming, compared to 41% who blame it on human activity.

Seven percent (7%) attribute global warming to some other reason, and nine percent (9%) are unsure in a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. [...]

In April of last year [2], 47% of Americans blamed human activity versus 34% who viewed long-term planetary trends as the culprit. But the numbers have been moving in the direction of planetary trends since then.

On the eve of the inauguration of a president that has bought this nonsense hook, line, and sinker, we can only hope Congress is paying attention to how the electorate feels about this issue.

Stay tuned.

That blast of heat is coming from Gore’s mouth. All he spews is hot air, hence the “global warming”.

I got some surprising good news a couple of weeks ago at a professional conference I attended

I went to an IT conference this past summer. We got harangued by a salesweasel for about 20 minutes on "Global Warming, How it's our fault, and what he sold to fix it".

Anyhoo, salesweasel asked the conferencegoers "How many of your companies are *actively* implementing green initiatives?". Out of a couple hundred people, one guy tentatively raised his hand (he looked like his boss was watching....lol!)

These aren't "concerned citizens", these are movers and shakers in the IT world, at least in the Southeastern US. People that make decisions, and more important, people that implement decisions. And the general response to the whole "green theme" was "Who cares!".

I've been feeling much better since that conference.

Al Gore thinks he has all this global warming situation locked up.
He gets invited to Norway to be crowned with a Nobel and goes to the biggest oil driller in Europe, as a matter of fact it's the only sizable industry of Norway.
These unselfish Norwegians after crowning Al Gore with his Nobel, see Al returning to his home country and based on his coronation, he carries a even bigger stick.
Gore's command: Global warming, CO2 are killing this country and the earth, therefore no oil drilling in the U.S.
Oil obviously needs to be imported and affords those international oil drillers enormous profits including these global warming fearing Norwegians who continue to offshore-drill full speed ahead.

Al Gore should be arrested for FRAUD because thats what he’s committing.He’s making these claims that the earth is warming when he has NO proof and he’s doing this to defraud the public.

Global Warming is losing devotees at a pretty good clip which explains the renewed fanaticism to get the relevant laws passed before the religion is completely discredited. Once it is enacted into law there is no further recourse. Socialism reigns.

How can Al Gore have any credibility when his monthly carbon footprint is larger than an average American’s is for a year.

He won an Oscar and a Nobel Peace Prize,

He did not win an Oscar. The procducer of that fairy tale did.

It’s good to know that more than half of America isn’t perpetually, irremediably stupid. I wish it would make a difference in what our socialist overlords have in mind for our future. But, I’ve never believed their insane environmental agenda had anything to do with scientific fact or majority opinion.

Mrs. Bruck and I spent the day today drying carpet and replacing the burst pipe in the basement. Zero has already solved global warming and he hasn’t even taken the oath of office!
