Gore claims climate battle just like fight against slavery, apartheid
Fox News ^ | July 13, 2017 | Jennifer G. Hickey

Global warming activist and former veep Al Gore likened the battle over climate change to humanity's greatest struggles -- like the fights against slavery, apartheid and nuclear proliferation -- during a speech Thursday in Australia, according to a newly reported transcript. 

In a July 13 speech to the EcoCity World Summit in Melbourne, the former vice president argued combating global warming was “in the tradition of all the great moral causes that have improved the circumstances of humanity throughout our history,” according to the website Climate Depot.

“The abolition of slavery, woman’s suffrage and women’s rights, the civil rights movement and the anti-apartheid movement in South Africa, the movement to stop the toxic phase of nuclear arms race and more recently the gay rights movement,” Gore said.

Marc Morano, executive editor for ClimateDepot.com, told Fox News he made an audio recording of Gore’s remarks because summit organizers prevented media from videotaping the event.

Sigh. All that consensus, yet no transparency.

It’s more like the battle for LBGTQ “rights”.

Same actors, different script.

Is that right, Big Al? Jussst like slavery & apartheid? Seems to me that’s an argument designed to get Rino’s like McCain & Graham to wet their pants and vote with your lunatics. Peddle that crap elsewhere.

Stephen Hawking said the other day that if we don’t listen to ManBearPig and give him lots of tax dollars, Earth will reach a `tipping point’ and become like Venus.
You know these people are all nuttier than Payday candy bars don’t you?

Black people must get awfully tired of hearing every little political movement likened to their historical struggle. I know I’d get offended, and I’m sure many of them do.

(I know for a fact that many have found the ‘gay rights’ comparison offensive.)

Except that slavery and apartheid were real things.

The globalist elites are trying to enslave us using this climate change nonsense as cover. Is that what he means?

This is what a culture looks like when it has been indoctrinated to regurgitate belief instead of being taught to question and to seek the truth via logic and reason.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a giant nuclear furnace that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

When Hawking makes stupid statements like Earth becoming Venus, he throws everything else he has ever said into question. I personally would not want to waste my credibility in that way.
