The former Vice-President has been caught spewing climate propaganda again. This time claiming fresh climate models show that the northern polar ice cap could (75% chance) completely melt in as little as five years.
Gore described the new projections as shocking, but perhaps the biggest shock came to the scientist Gore credited with the research. Timesonline reports:
The climatologist whose work Mr Gore was relying upon dropped the former Vice-President in the water with an icy blast.
Its unclear to me how this figure was arrived at, Dr [Wieslav] Maslowski said. I would never try to estimate likelihood at anything as exact as this.
Mr Gores office later admitted that the 75 per cent figure was one used by Dr Maslowksi as a ballpark figure several years ago in a conversation with Mr Gore.
To recap, Gores fresh news was several years old. The data was not so much data as it was a visit with a scientist; and most importantly the polar ice caps are not going to melt in five years.
Sort of a microcosm of Mr. Gores post-electoral life, isnt it?

It happened a while back. May 6, 1986. Submarines USS Archerfish (SSN 678), USS Ray (SSN 653), and USS Hawkbill (SSN 666) rendezvous at the North Pole.

Global Warming is what happens when a politician plays scientist.
Imagine how well politicians can play doctor!

Dems can only get elected in most areas of the US by:
- Running in the few extreme far left areas of the country
- Lie about their true position and policies.
- Intimidation, union thugs, stealing and/or adding ballots - register and produce votes for the dead, illegals, underage and other ineligible people.
- If all else fails, judge shop and recount, recount, recount!!
Question of the day - what is more entertaining? Watching Obama's poll numbers plummet or watching liberals as they discover their messiah was all smoke and mirrors .

Picture caption suggestion:
"Poor Algore. He just had so many for choice scientific statements to make that they got backed up! He just needed a little help from a friend to get them out.
Not to worry, he will be sure to let us hear them soon!"

Thanks...added for Friday's thread. Yet I'm a bit suprised in that Algore usually pulls it out of there himself...
