Way to cause us to spend tax money on frivolous lawsuits!
He saw that Gore made $100 million plus with this scam and he figures there’s still time to get in on the action.
It’s pretty obvious that this is a religion.
He’s positioning himself where he can defend his religion, and he’s not letting go of it.
“AGW is your religion”
They are clinging to their beliefs in spite of the evidence, and that is THEIR definition of “faith”.
