Al Gore: “Win the conversation” on climate change by treating skeptics the way we treat racists
Hotair ^ | 08/30/2011 | Allahpundit

Via the Daily Caller. Pro tip: The “you’re so wrong that you deserve to be shunned for your wrongness” approach works better when the number of people who agree with you is growing, not shrinking. That said, I do prefer this strategy to listening to him shriek with rage. If we’re going to go this route, though, should we really stop at shunning? It took more than scolding during personal conversations to turn the tide against racism; men and women had to march and Congress had to act. I wonder how far the Goracle would be willing to go legislatively to force the average American to accept his agenda. According to him, this is a crisis of utmost urgency and consequence, and according to the Supreme Court, the Commerce Clause can do almost anything these days. Put the two together and they could make regulatory magic.

Speaking of Congress acting against racism, I’m giving you two clips here. Do not miss the second one. Even if you get bored from Gore’s droning, I promise that the Beck video will make up for it. Click the image to watch.

Well, in politics, racism is like beauty, it’s all in the eye (or mouth) of the beholder.

Ad hominem attacks are an automatic admission that one has lost the factual argument. Thank G*d (literally the hand of Providence) Bill Clinton didn’t die in office and that the managers of the fake ballot mills in Florida underestimated what they’d need to carry the State in 2000.

that’s how you “win” when you don’t have reason on your side.

‘Win’ the game of chess by knocking over the board.

This guy is mental. Has been for some time.

Treat him like the snake oil fraudster that he is. He sees that his window of opportunity for banking millions on his fraudulent schemes is closing and is desperately grasping for all straws to keeping it going.

If you don’t have the facts, use the law.
If you don’t have the law, abuse the plaintiff.

Blood pressure looks a little high, Al.

Would be a terrible shame if you had circulatory troubles.

A terrible shame indeed.

This flush-faced fathead of a bloviator is fodder for a padded cell. He is an embarrassment to the honest, true Americans that are left.

No wonder Tipsy left this pile of human debris.

You can sure tell this guy flunked science.
Imagine Einsten making threats to anyone challenging his theories.

Science REQUIRES that all theory be challenged and all documents be open for a full examination.

Clearly Al has lost his mind.
