Even though it is painfully obvious that we are having difficulty determining if America can even afford the massive nine-hundred billion dollar healthcare that the administration recently forced through Congress, other factions in the Senate have already begun discussing the Climate bill, recently renamed “The American Power Act”, as well. The damage the healthcare bill will inflict on our economy will pale in significance compared to the harm that the American Power Act will mean for all Americans. Well, almost all Americans. It appears that Al Gore and his closest friends are prepared through their investments, to turn millions into billions once this bill has passed into law.
But why are we even considering this? The scientists and organizations that have demanded immediate action have been caught red handed falsifying data in order to support their global warming theories and Mr. Hanson of Nasa’s Goddard Space Center still refuses to release the data that he based his report on even though his peers have been unable to duplicate his findings. In fact, the data is so flawed that the proponents of the climate bill have changed the name of the crisis from “global warming” to “climate change” rather than have to answer for earth’s recent cooling trend.
I’ve stated in previous posts that the urgency of a global catastrophe fits very neatly into the general criteria laid out by neo-socialists; those that have already stated their strategy to use a crisis, man-made or otherwise, to destabilize the global economy. The enormous amount of resources that would be required to stave off certain doom in a global environmental crisis would devastate capitalism and bring about the collapse of the current geopolitical balance of power. This is nothing new; in fact, it is little more that a revision of the Cloward-Piven strategy that we have barely remained one step ahead of since it’s inception in 1966. Cloward-Piven was directed at the United States but the eco-socialists are attempting this now on a global scale.
If you don’t believe it, then why is it that democracies and republics of the western industrial nations are the only ones being pressured to join this circus? China and India have already stated they have no intention of damaging their economic growth with restrictions on industry even though their carbon emissions are far greater than that of the United States and there is no hue and cry from the global environmental movement demanding their participation. Much of the third world is not required to participate by the basic provisions of the latest U.N. sponsored climate accord and in fact, they would receive monetary assistance and technological support under these accords that would allow them to industrialize. With that in mind, what is this but a blatant attempt by the UN and eco-socialists to disassemble the United States and distribute our wealth and industrial might evenly around the globe.
Of course, environmentalists accuse those that dismiss the validity of global warming, climate change or whatever the next name will be, of being ignorant and standing in the way of saving countless millions from doom. I think it’s more than fair that we look at the claims these same people were making forty years ago and examine their track record for accuracy.
U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson (D-WI) founded “Earth Day” in 1970 to bring awareness to the impending global catastrophe that man’s ignorance had wrought upon the earth. Was Mr. Nelson a climatologist or an environmental expert? Uh, no; as you might have already guessed, he received a Bachelor of Arts from San Jose College but eventually completed law school in Wisconsin.
Environmentalists and sympathetic scientists from around the world gathered for Earth Day to make the public aware of what we had done to the planet and to convey the urgency with which we must act before our mistakes consume the planet and all life on it. Below are a series of quotes taken from the hysterical pleas being made all through this event; quotes that adequately display how wrong these people were then, and remain to be now. Quotes that show just how far they are willing to go to make you believe we must enact their radical agenda right now or face doom. Bear in mind when you read these quotes that they are forty years old and frame the core beliefs of the environmental movement in 1970.
“We have about five more years at the outside to do something."Kenneth Watt, ecologist.
“Civilization will end within 15 or 30 years unless immediate action is taken against problems facing mankind.”George Wald, Harvard Biologist.
“We are in an environmental crisis which threatens the survival of this nation, and of the world as a suitable place of human habitation.”Barry Commoner, Washington University biologist.
“Man must stop pollution and conserve his resources, not merely to enhance existence but to save the race from intolerable deterioration and possible extinction.”New York Times editorial, the day after the first Earth Day.
“Population will inevitably and completely outstrip whatever small increases in food supplies we make. The death rate will increase until at least 100-200 million people per year will be starving to death during the next ten years.”Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist.
“By…[1975] some experts feel that food shortages will have escalated the present level of world hunger and starvation into famines of unbelievable proportions. Other experts, more optimistic, think the ultimate food-population collision will not occur until the decade of the 1980s.”Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist.
“It is already too late to avoid mass starvation.”Denis Hayes, chief organizer for Earth Day.
“Demographers agree almost unanimously on the following grim timetable: by 1975 widespread famines will begin in India; these will spread by 1990 to include all of India, Pakistan, China and the Near East, Africa. By the year 2000, or conceivably sooner, South and Central America will exist under famine conditions….By the year 2000, thirty years from now, the entire world, with the exception of Western Europe, North America, and Australia, will be in famine.”Peter Gunter, professor, North Texas State University.
“Scientists have solid experimental and theoretical evidence to support…the following predictions: In a decade, urban dwellers will have to wear gas masks to survive air pollution…by 1985 air pollution will have reduced the amount of sunlight reaching earth by one half….”Life Magazine, January 1970.
“At the present rate of nitrogen buildup, it’s only a matter of time before light will be filtered out of the atmosphere and none of our land will be usable.”Kenneth Watt, Ecologist.
“Air pollution…is certainly going to take hundreds of thousands of lives in the next few years alone.”Paul Ehrlich, Stanford University biologist.
“We are prospecting for the very last of our resources and using up the nonrenewable things many times faster than we are finding new ones.”Martin Litton, Sierra Club director.
“By the year 2000, if present trends continue, we will be using up crude oil at such a rate…that there won’t be any more crude oil. You’ll drive up to the pump and say, `Fill ‘er up, buddy,’ and he’ll say, `I am very sorry, there isn’t any."Kenneth Watt, Ecologist.
“Dr. S. Dillon Ripley, secretary of the Smithsonian Institute, believes that in 25 years, somewhere between 75 and 80 percent of all the species of living animals will be extinct.”Sen. Gaylord Nelson.
“The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age.”Kenneth Watt, Ecologist.
It’s time to stop fooling around with these people. The climate crisis is nothing more than a concocted event and the voices of the 30,000 scientists that can prove that it is false must be heard; not suppressed. What is clear is that the data used by environmentalists to stake their claim of climate change was not misinterpreted, it was deliberately crafted to yield those results and when tested, they are the only ones that have come up with the results they say are proof positive. The real question is what is the political machine driving this attempt to crush the free market and democracy?

Newsweek's Curious Adoration of Al Gore
Barack Obama is an unqualified disaster so rather than accept fact, Newsweek (or is it News-Weak?) is taking a trip down memory lane so they can play “What if Gore won the 2000 election?” In what may be the most idiotic article to ever to stain the pages of that Liberal rag-sheet, News-weak has decided to imagine a fantasy timeline to give us a glimpse of what a Gore Presidency would look like.
We know Liberals are all about fantasy. After all, in a Liberal’s world, hard work and research just can’t yield the concrete results that wearing ribbons do. If they could only convince all Americans to wear the appropriate ribbon of awareness, think how much human suffering would vanish overnight. In fact, the ribbons possess so much power; Liberal’s would rather wear those than waste their money on funding established research or support centers. That is unless they are one of those filthy rich liberals. In that case, they use their money to create foundations; accepting donations to raise awareness among the massive population of insensitive people that do not wear ribbons.
The other thing Liberals love to do is dream about the utopian society they could create if last remnants of capitalism were finally swept away and the progressive (Marxist) agenda were realized in totality. Since Obama clearly can’t deliver on that, they did the next best thing and created a dream world where Bush was defeated and Gore took his rightful place as the 43rd President of the United States.
In David Rakoff's dream world, 9-11 never happened because Gore took the appropriate steps to prevent it and Gore’s attention to the environment, particularly the restoration of wetlands and erosion prevention on the gulf coast, mitigated the severity of Katrina and the swift response of the Federal government under Gore, prevented countless deaths and needless devastation. Obama maybe a weak and ineffectual Liberal but he is still a Liberal so they just couldn’t ignore him. In Rakoff's world, Gore would eventually name Obama as a Supreme Court Justice.
The piece begins by eluding all sense of Constitutional law as the United States, under Gore, finally becomes party to the Kyoto Protocol and passes a comprehensive energy bill. Somehow, the mystical powers of Al Gore can even circumvent the Constitutional requirement that the Senate ratify our treaties with a 2/3 majority, something that could not happen with Kyoto and would not happen even if Copenhagen managed to cobble an agreement together within the next few days. The comprehensive energy agreement is also a work of fiction since that was proclaimed dead on arrival with democrats in control of both houses of Congress and a President that is willing to sign it. But this is a work of fantasy so to hell with logic and law….let’s dream on
At the ceremony to mark the signing of the Kyoto Protocol, President Gore announces ground breaking for high speed maglev rail along the Eastern Seaboard. Old rail cars would be sunk offshore to create artificial reefs and by September 2009, the system is opened, offering high speed rail service from Portland, Maine to Jacksonville, Florida. Of course, since Al Gore is the patron saint of the religion of Climatology, he would have no problem at all persuading the eco-fascists that the rail line is an important step in the “greening” of America….or would he?
Environmental activists have fought every major project, green or otherwise, under the banner of protecting the diversity of species and to restore the natural beauty of a planet untouched by human activity. If the project was to replace an existing system rail by rail and tie by tie, I am sure they would find some foul species of hairless mouse that has called the existing rail line home. Even if none were found, they would still sue to force us to do another one of those endless environmental impact studies before the basic route survey could even begin. Damn! Those little details keep ruining the plot.
The story continues with Gore’s superior intellect being able to decipher a disjointed and seemingly meaningless string of information (which is all that was left of our intelligence gathering capabilities after Clinton-Gore gutted the system) whereby he discovers a plot crafted by Osama Bin Laden to attack the United States. Despite his historical disdain for the military and his repeated assertions that war is an option only needed by those that fail at diplomacy, Gore races to the nearest phone booth and dons his “Commander in Chief” Underoos before ordering preemptive strategic bombing strikes on Al Qaida training camps in Afghanistan near the Pakistani border, averting the disaster of 9-11 altogether.
Just to imply the petty hardships that a victorious Al Gore would have to contend with as President, Rakoff adds that President Gore signs the Patriot Act to provide an additional measure of security for the country but since he is not George Bush, the Supreme Court rules it unconstitutional. He also says that a Gore administration would be ridiculed and denigrated at every turn which I take as more of a slap at Obama than a commentary on Gore. In Mr. Rakoff’s world, Gore is unaffected by his critics; making the hard decisions that he apparently feels Mr. Obama is incapable of.
To further show his fierce determination and Gore’s iron will, when Vice President Joe Lieberman speaks out against healthcare reform, Gore demands, and gets, his resignation which only proves the adolescence of the author. When this article was written, Lieberman was still holding out on healthcare so he apparently felt compelled to throw a few literary rocks at him. After all, since Lieberman is obviously not part of the collective mind, he must be eliminated, even in a fantasy administration. Of course, Hillary Clinton is named as Lieberman’s replacement. Colin Powell steps down as Secretary of State and Bill Clinton assumes that position.
Just to prove that this is indeed, OZ and not a work of fact driven speculation; Gore supposedly signs a bill providing tax cuts equaling $1.35 trillion dollars over ten years to America’s wealthiest citizens, drawing harsh criticism from both the left and the right. He also faces the nation during his 2002 State of the Union address and singles out Iran, Iraq and North Korea as having goals similar to the Axis powers of World War II.
Fear not…all ends well with King Al Gore the first. He is eventually recognized for his bold actions and foresight in preventing not only an imminent attack on the US by fundamentalist terrorists but in preventing catastrophe through his environmental restoration of the Gulf of Mexico coast line, which saved thousands of lives and billions in property damage. The number of Gore’s successes are eventually criticized in the Senate because the sheer amount of time they have to spend commending this President’s actions are seen as distracting the Senate from their primary purpose.
Of course no story in News-Weak would be complete if it didn’t trash Bush too. Now that Gore has completed his two terms, it is finally Hillary Clinton’s turn. The Democratic ticket for 2008 is Hillary Clinton with her mate and running mate, Bill. Just as strange is the notion that George Bush throws his hat in the ring in a bid to finally capture his second term with brother Jeb as his running mate. Rakoff suggests that George Bush’s fortunes begin to turn after a televised and tearful interview about his alcoholism with Dr. Drew Pinsky; a condition that Bush supposedly falls pray to after his 2000 loss to Gore.
Really? Apparently Mr. Rakoff is under the delusion that Al Gore would have been able to have see what dozens of experts could not, where Islamic terror is concerned. Much like the followers of Nostradamus, the snippets of information about Bin Laden’s activities could only have been reasonably connected after the attack when the names and countries of origin of the perpetrators were known. Similarly, Rakoff assumes that Gore would have found a stomach for military action if the need arose and that he would even care about the environment if he were not in a position to personally accrue millions of dollars by exploiting the fears of the Eco-weirdoes on a national level.
No, Gore is a lack-luster and unpolished imitation of a politician frustrated by his failed bid for the Presidency. His lack of substance and personality is why he was not elected in spite of every felonious act of voter fraud committed by the left.
Now that climate-gate has proven the fraud of environmental extremism and may even be the largest hoax of the century, perhaps Gore will finally find some other kind of snake oil to peddle. Maybe he can retire to a local park and sell snow cones this summer to help in the fight against seasonal global warming?

The Manchurian Candidate
The climate debate is raging in Copenhagen and as I suspected, is turning into a money issue between poorer and richer nations. After all, the UN promised that there would be a major shift of wealth from the suckers, I mean the western industrial nations to the parasites…oops…I mean developing nations. I am not disparaging the poor. They have an awful existence but one would have to be foolish to ignore that the impoverished people of those nations are the victims of massive government corruption within their own countries and not suffering because the west prefers I-Pods to drums and cars to ox carts.
EPA Chief Lisa Jackson is there to calm the nerves of Obama’s globalist friends in the UN by laying out her plan to negate Congressional authority and bypass the democratic process by unilaterally enacting sweeping regulations in the US to cap greenhouse gases through a dangerous loophole crafted into the clean air act. This, my friends, is what happens when you elect a radical to the Presidency. They appoint radical environmentalists to positions of power such as Carol Browner, and the radicals in turn, use our own laws against us to bring about their own twisted agenda based on bad science and egalitarian socialist principals.
Half of Obama’s appointees believe in a one world government responsible for controlling every facets of human existence and the other half have a world first, people last eco-fascist mentality. Both of these factions believe their ideology is too important to worry about the sovereignty of the United States and if we must cease to exist as a nation for the greater good of the world, then that is a small price to pay. Don’t believe me? Then why, when all evidence points to a massive, international and concerted effort to conceal the fallacies of the global warming theory, has the EPA decided to “go rogue” and continue these insanely damaging policies to cripple business in the US in the name of reducing greenhouse gasses?
Global warming proponents are disregarding the evidence contained in these e-mails stating that there is sufficient corroboration in the work of other climate scientists to validate the existence of man-made global warming. Really? Does it matter that the believers in global warming, as a body, have collaborated on their work and many use the same data sources; data that is proven to have been manipulated? Does it matter that dissenting views and research by serious scientists that contradict the theory of global warming have not only been locked out of the discussion but that any peer paper or organization that even print their work have been ostracized as well?
The religious leaders of the global warming camp have pointed to NASA and NOAA as collaborative proof of global warming, noting studies and reports that confirm their findings. Unfortunately for them, NASA has been brought under fire and the researcher that issued the report validating global warming has refused to release his data, even under the threat of a Freedom of Information law suit. We all know that Phil Jones of the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia had sent e-mails warning colleagues to destroy damning communications and data before a Freedom of Information Act suit could be brought. The CRU recently announced that its climate data from 1960 to present has been “irretrievably lost” but denies that this has anything to do with Mr., Jones’s e-mails. Add to this that NOAA personnel have also actively sought to silence dissenting views and have recently been caught eliminating the input of live satellite data from their computer model to better show the rise in sea temperature.
Scientific method refers to a body of techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge. To be termed scientific, a method of inquiry must be based on gathering observable, empirical and measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning. A scientific method consists of the collection of data through observation and experimentation, and the formulation and testing of hypotheses. There is nothing in the explanation of the scientific method that would allow a researcher from distorting or deleting “observable, empirical and measurable evidence” because it contradicts their pre-conceived ideas about what should be happening. If the evidence does not correspond, then the theory is wrong….plain and simple; at least it should be.
There is far too much effort being exerted to force everyone into the acceptance of global warming, or climate change as it is now called, to be a matter of scientific rationale. Let’s face it, if the empirical evidence is there; if this is a solid scientific fact then why aren’t the climate change proponents opening the books and showing the world their proof? Instead all we have heard is “So what….a few e-mails do not negate the science.” Then where is the science?
In 1917, Albert Einstein applied his general theory of relativity to the universe and was stunned at what he found. According to his theories, the universe must be expanding but as a devout creationist, he believed that a universe created by God had to be static and eternal. The evidence was there and the mathematics were solid, but his faith in God prevented him from believing in his own work. It wasn’t until Edwin Hubble correctly interpreted the Doppler shift in 1929 that the expanding universe became part of our store of scientific knowledge. I believe in God, but I also believe that God would put all of the physical laws in place to sustain whatever he created; so I can exist quite comfortably with science and religion. Einstein could not believe that a created universe could be dynamic and expanding so he suppressed his own theory.
Similarly, climate change fanatics are so convinced that man is destructive to the planet that our industrial society must be harmful. The theory of global warming was written in part, because of recurrent and persistent droughts in certain areas of the world. Even though there was sufficient evidence of historically massive swings in earths climate that occur as part of the natural cycles of the sun’s output coupled with fluctuations in the earth’s orbital path, the seemingly religious fervor of environmental radicals refused to acknowledge anything that did not lay the blame squarely at man’s feet. Let’s not forget that these are the same people that warned of an impending ice age during the first “Earth Day” back in 1970. According to the same eco-nuts that are pushing global warming now, the earth was being thrust into an ice age because our industrial pollution was blocking the sun’s warming and nurturing rays, giving us only decades to avert disaster.
The last and most dangerous part of this equation is that there are always malevolent forces hiding in the shadows waiting to exploit man’s foolishness. The threat of global catastrophe has long been viewed by those that seek absolute political power as the one thing that would entice people to act without reason. We would deal with economic woes and even the threat of war but when the future of our children is brought into question, all bets are off. We will do anything for our children; even give up our wealth and sovereignty as long as we can guarantee their safety. This is well known to our enemies.
It wasn’t Russia that tried to crush us in the ‘60’s, it was communism. They tried to subvert our culture and for some, it worked; but the majority of America resisted because it threatened our children’s future. They tried to engage us in a war of economics but communism cannot out-produce capitalism because they have no profit motive. They threatened war and again, we resisted with a massive arms buildup to protect our children. Now they have the ultimate weapon, the threat of world annihilation at our own hands. They are hell bent on convincing us that we are killing our own children through our corrupt way of life, expecting that we will finally surrender and for the first time in history, they have a willing ally in the White House.
Do I believe that Obama is a willing part of this conspiracy? No, I think that like the bulk of his radical czars and other friends, he has been brainwashed only because Joe McCarthy was never able to finish his work of routing communists and Marxists out of our government and Universities. He is, in essence, the quintessential Manchurian Candidate. Scripted and schooled by the left, ready to strangle our nation and her people as soon as someone turns over the Queen of Hearts.

According to his theories, the universe must be expanding but as a devout creationist, he believed that a universe created by God had to be static and eternal. The evidence was there and the mathematics were solid, but his faith in God prevented him from believing in his own work. It wasn’t until Edwin Hubble correctly interpreted the Doppler shift in 1929 that the expanding universe became part of our store of scientific knowledge. I believe in God, but I also believe that God would put all of the physical laws in place to sustain whatever he created; so I can exist quite comfortably with science and religion. Einstein could not believe that a created universe could be dynamic and expanding so he suppressed his own theory.
Similarly, climate change fanatics are so convinced that man is destructive to the planet that our industrial society must be harmful. The theory of global warming was written in part, because of recurrent and persistent droughts in certain areas of the world. Even though there was sufficient evidence of historically massive swings in earths climate that occur as part of the natural cycles of the sun’s output coupled with fluctuations in the earth’s orbital path, the seemingly religious fervor of environmental radicals refused to acknowledge anything that did not lay the blame squarely at man’s feet. Let’s not forget that these are the same people that warned of an impending ice age during the first “Earth Day” back in 1970. According to the same eco-nuts that are pushing global warming now, the earth was being thrust into an ice age because our industrial pollution was blocking the sun’s warming and nurturing rays, giving us only decades to avert disaster.
The last and most dangerous part of this equation is that there are always malevolent forces hiding in the shadows waiting to exploit man’s foolishness. The threat of global catastrophe has long been viewed by those that seek absolute political power as the one thing that would entice people to act without reason. We would deal with economic woes and even the threat of war but when the future of our children is brought into question, all bets are off. We will do anything for our children; even give up our wealth and sovereignty as long as we can guarantee their safety. This is well known to our enemies.
It wasn’t Russia that tried to crush us in the ‘60’s, it was communism. They tried to subvert our culture and for some, it worked; but the majority of America resisted because it threatened our children’s future. They tried to engage us in a war of economics but communism cannot out-produce capitalism because they have no profit motive. They threatened war and again, we resisted with a massive arms buildup to protect our children. Now they have the ultimate weapon, the threat of world annihilation at our own hands. They are hell bent on convincing us that we are killing our own children through our corrupt way of life, expecting that we will finally surrender and for the first time in history, they have a willing ally in the White House.
Do I believe that Obama is a willing part of this conspiracy? No, I think that like the bulk of his radical czars and other friends, he has been brainwashed only because Joe McCarthy was never able to finish his work of routing communists and Marxists out of our government and Universities. He is, in essence, the quintessential Manchurian Candidate. Scripted and schooled by the left, ready to strangle our nation and her people as soon as someone turns over the Queen of Hearts.

Al Gore - Eco-activist or Idiot?
As if Al Gore hasn’t done enough to damage his credibility through the discrepancies and exaggerations found in his film, “An Inconvenient Truth”, his latest rants have taken him from inconsequential to irresponsible. Recently, he equated those that disagree with his dismal outlook on the future of planet earth with the “birther” movement that does not believe that President Obama is a natural born citizen of the United States. Now, I do agree that there is a connection between both groups because of the common reasoning behind their beliefs, or rather, refusal to believe.
President Obama spent $900,000 in legal fees during his campaign for the sole purpose of sealing every scrap of personal information about his life. From school transcripts to law firm client lists, everything has been methodically and deliberately hidden. Neither Obama nor his staff will address the questions surrounding the inconsistencies in the information contained on the birth certificate he provided to the election board. The President could have quickly put this issue to rest by obtaining and releasing an official copy of the document but instead, has chosen to ignore this while his staff dutifully attacks anyone that dares ask the question. While several legal actions had been filed by active duty military personnel regarding his legitimacy as the Commander in Chief, every one of the pending cases were eventually dismissed, yielding to pressure from the Federal Justice Department.
Similarly, Al Gore refuses to answer questions about the inconsistencies and outright exaggerations found in his film. Irish filmmaker Phelim McAleer is director and producer of “Not Evil, Just Wrong”, a film which debunks global warming, sea level rise and draws attention to the errors in Gore’s film. Mr. McAleer attended a conference at which Al Gore was promoting his agenda on climate change. During the conference’s question and answer segment, Mr. McAleer questioned Gore on the flaws in “An Inconvenient Truth”. Rather than answer Mr. McAleer’s questions, Al Gore simply instructed his staff to turn off the microphone McAleer was using.
IPCC has been caught manipulating tree ring data to obtain their famous “hockey stick” graph which they used to show the world that there was a rapid and unusual spike in global temperatures over the past 50 years; a graph that other scientists have never been able to duplicate. NASA’s James Hanson also released a report widely used by Gore as his empirical proof of global warning but this report too, has been criticized by scientific researchers that have been unable to reach the same conclusions that Mr. Hanson did. Repeated attempts have been made to secure the data that Hanson used to construct his theories but in each case, Hanson has refused to release his data to anyone, further adding to the questions surrounding his report’s scientific accuracy.
People have even questioned Al Gore’s motives in his push for climate legislation. Since he has made heavy investments in the tracking technology that would be required under these proposals, he is now uniquely positioned to capitalize on the Copenhagen accords and the Climate bill. Many arguments have been made that Mr. Gore is “putting his money where his mouth is” and he is simply investing in green technologies as would anyone that believes this is necessary to promote a healthy eco-society but those arguments fall short when Mr. Gore’s lifestyle is examined.
Mr. Gore travels frequently by private plane, which according to his own beliefs is the largest possible carbon footprint any individual could stamp on this “fragile planet”. His home energy consumption is also reported to be ten times higher than that of the average American household. Even the ultra liberal organization PETA has questioned his sincerity since his consumption of meat is tied to the domestic production of animals that are widely known for their emissions of huge quantities of methane, a gas that is twenty times more potent as a greenhouse agent than carbon Dioxide.
Additionally, if Mr. Gore truly believed that climate change is a critical threat to the planet he would have really “put his money where his mouth is” and aired his film on PBS and network channels but immediately after the films theater run it went to cable television as a PPV (pay per view) product. Three years later, DVD’s are still being sold and the only televised airings have been on pay channels like HBO and Cinemax.
In all fairness, fifty-thousand free copies of the film were offered to National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) here in the United States, who to their credit, refused to accept the film. Regardless of the published reasons for refusing the videos, I am sure the NTSA recognized the legal ramifications of airing a film that had already been found flawed by the UK courts. The Courts in Britain eventually required that educators wishing to show the film in the UK would also have to distribute disclaimers to the students regarding the flaws in the films assertions. Parents in America have also been vigilant and vocally angry over the recent attempts by liberal factions to “indoctrinate” our youth into any agenda, political, green or otherwise and I am sure that played a part in the NSTA decision as well.
In the face of these “Al-egations” and setbacks, Mr. Gore remains insistent that the crisis is real. Of course he does, he stands to lose millions if the Climate bill fails and that is enough to make it a real crisis for him. The mounting evidence against global warming has not been publically or scientifically refuted beyond the incessant reiteration of the original fraudulent studies and global warming proponents have recently dropped the name “global warming” altogether, now calling the threat “climate change” rather than try to explain earths recent cooling trends.
Just as in the election recount of 2000, Mr. Gore is stamping his feet and crying foul as public support for the theory of global warming, climate change or whatever they will call it next, evaporates. Instead of answering the questions of critics or bringing new and honest scientific data that supports the need for immediate action, Al has decided to act like a child and encourage the youth of this nation to join him in an “environmental tantrum”.
Mr. Gore spoke before a gathering of the Clinton Global Initiative in New York last week. In his speech, he urged young people to engage in civil disobedience on behalf of the planet. It is his claim that "the world has lost ground to the climate crisis." adding "if you're a young person looking at the future of this planet and looking at what is being done right now, and not done, I believe we have reached the stage where it is time for civil disobedience to prevent the construction of new coal plants that do not have carbon capture and sequestration,"
As a man that served as Vice President for eight years and very nearly became President, one would think that Gore would have a better opinion of the democratic process not to mention a higher regard for the rule of law. Mr. Gore, before you encourage the youth of this nation to break the law to save your own investments, you need to look at the reasons that your claims are not being taken seriously. The scientific reports that you staked your reputation on, were based on criminally manipulated data and cartoon science. Face it; you got a D on your homework because you copied the homework from the books of cheaters and rather than answer serious questions, you attack the people asking the questions.
You had the opportunity to sway opinion but you lost that chance when your staff started turning off microphones and labeling critics as crazy because they wouldn’t “drink the Kool-Aid” that the rest of your devoted followers guzzle by the gallon. Let’s face it; it is your own fault that most people don’t believe you anymore. The truth is, I don’t think I would matter if you answered the questions now because you have damaged your credibility so baldy that very few people would even bother to wonder what you think. I would hope that even though you never actually became President that you might grow up and find some of the dignity that former Presidents usually display. Write your memoirs, now that your film has made you millions you can even build a library, but for heaven’s sake, leave us alone and stop encouraging our children and young adults to break the law because your feelings are hurt.
