Rev. Al speaks.

[Nonstatist]

The f*cker is insane.

[domenad]

Wow. I thought we just got through an administration accused of politicizing science, and I furthermore thought that was considered to be a bad thing. Now I discover, you just have to politicize the “correct” stuff. Who knew?

[jagusafr]

Hey Al! STFU! You’re increasing the CO2 levels!

VENEZUELA: Chavez calls for global offensive for socialism
August 31, 2005

excerpts...

"The environment is suffering damage that could be irreversible — global warming, the greenhouse effect, the melting of the polar ice caps, the rising sea level, hurricanes — with terrible social occurrences that will shake life on this planet."

"I believe this idea has a strong connection with reality. I don't think we have much time. Fidel Castro said in one of his speeches I read not so long ago, 'tomorrow could be too late, let's do now what we need to do'."

"I believe it is time that we take up with courage and clarity a political, social, collective and ideological offensive across the world — a real offensive that permits us to move progressively, over the next years, the next decades, leaving behind the perverse, destructive, destroyer, capitalist model and go forward in constructing the socialist model to avoid barbarism and beyond that the annihilation of life on this planet."

--Hugo Chavez, at the 16th World Festival of Youth and Students, held in Caracas on August 8-15, 2005

Obama climate czar has socialist ties
Group sees 'global governance' as solution

Stephen Dinan, January 12, 2009

Until last week, Carol M. Browner, President-elect Barack Obama's pick as global warming czar, was listed as one of 14 leaders of a socialist group's Commission for a Sustainable World Society, which calls for "global governance" and says rich countries must shrink their economies to address climate change.

By Thursday, Mrs. Browner's name and biography had been removed from Socialist International's Web page, though a photo of her speaking June 30 to the group's congress in Greece was still available.

Can you imagin what it must be like to be married to this guy? I mean, behind closed doors? If Tipper has a problem with pills or booze or whatever...lord a mercy, I can’t say I’d blame her.

[tractorman]

So Al, how do we know when we’ve won the war on global warming?

[Red Badger]

Future historians will look upon Al Gore as the most insane person on t he planet who almost became POTUS................

[brownsfan]

Al is nothing more than a snake oil salesman, doing his best to drum up business so he can be relavent and increase his wealth.

But, I wish just one of the cult of GW idiots would ask hime this question:

The climate is fragile, by Algore’s own admission, right? We humans have the power to change the climate, right? We don’t fully understand the climate, as evidence I’d point to the many models that disagree and our inability to predict weather, (a derivative of climate). If we can agree on all that, the key question is:

What happens if we overcorrect and cause a cooling cycle? Food is MUCH tougher to grow in a cooler cycle, and it’s much harder to warm the planet after it’s begun to cool.

Well?

[saganite]

Ayn Rand had a character in Atlas shrugged, a scientist on the govt payroll who perfectly encapsulates current politicized scientific research into AGW. The more that happens the more convinced I am that she was a seer as well as a philosopher.

[supremedoctrine]

GORE is one of the leading lights of this new face of
“soft” demagoguery. But demagoguery just the same.
And the reason he’s come out of the woodwork, even as Global Warming has been debunked worldwide, is that he now has a thug friend and accomplice in the White House. Gore joins his voice as just another one in this far-left chorus to cast a spell over an electorate too stupid to think for themselves , or too tired to even be able to.

[techcor]

That’s an excelent question. Also, in previous meetings and speeches Al Gore, etc. always stressed how global warming wasn’t political and wasn’t just to scare people into voting Democrat. I guess the gloves are coming off now and they are being a little more honest.

Governmental scientific inquiry is a contradiction in terms” said Quentin Daniels to Dagny Taggart.

[Soothesayer]

Al Gore is a threat to the entirety of human civilization. How many people are going to starve to death so some morons can make ethanol fuel?

[Soothesayer]

It’s only a “bad” thing if the Republicans do it. Democrats are perfect white lilies even when they are not.

[gwilhelm56]

Sorry ALBORE, We AIN’t Buying, most reasonable folk are starting to come around, all you got left are the Wacko Left.. and you can HAVE them.

YO, AL baby... get your butt up here.. I still got GloBULL WARMING on my DRiveway that needs SHOVELLING!!

[stentorian conservative]

Somebody needs to put this barmy imbecile in a straight jacket immediately.

[tractorman]

Maybe everybody should vote for whether they want global warming or cooling.

I vote for warming. I’m sick of winter.

[The Great RJ]

How can an organization created for the advancement of science allow a charlatan like Al Gore to push his man caused climate change dogma when more and more peer reviewed scientific studies are debunking it? Gore's science by political consensus flies in the face of true scientific inquiry.
