Algore therefore recommends following a REAL leader on ‘Bold Action’ on Global Warming. None other than Mitt Romney.

I see Algore is sticking with “Global Warming” and has not adapted the easier selling “Climate Change”. Either way he stands to be one of the richest people in the world if he can finish this bunko scam.

W was wise enough to see that the overwhelming evidence was a flimsy fabrication.

In the good old days, two guys in white jackets would show up and take Algore away for a nice restful vacation in Happy Land.

Gore is certifiable, and it is time he is held to account for his flim flam antics on “Global climate change”, whcih happens like, every second of the day and night.
