Nobel Laureate Al Gore was mocked Thursday at the Apple shareholders meeting in Cupertino, California.
As the subject of whether or not he should be reelected to the tech giant's board of directors surfaced, one longtime shareholder stood up saying, "[Gore] has become a laughingstock. The glaciers have not melted."
According to CNET, the gentleman then wisely said, "If his advice he gives to Apple is as faulty as his views on the environment then he doesn't need to be re-elected" (h/t Gateway Pundit via Glenn Reynolds):
Gore was seated in the first row, along with his six fellow board members, in Apple's Town Hall auditorium as several stockholders took turns either bashing or praising his high-profile views on climate change.
At the first opportunity for audience participation just several minutes into the proceeding, a longtime and well-known Apple shareholder--some would say gadfly--who introduced himself as Shelton Ehrlich, stood at the microphone and urged against Gore's re-election to the board. Gore "has become a laughingstock. The glaciers have not melted," Ehrlich said, referring to Gore's views on global warming. "If his advice he gives to Apple is as faulty as his views on the environment then he doesn't need to be re-elected."
Of course, if Gore would have lost his reelection bid, I'm sure he would have asked for a recount!

and for some of us he has just “become a laughingstock.” He always has been. They are just noticing? LOL.

“Nobel Laureate Al Gore was mocked Thursday at the Apple shareholders meeting in Cupertino, California.”
This is the most I have miled in a long time, watching this bstrd taken dow. After all he has done to frighten people in this country and around the world to soak them for “carbon credits” he should be dragged into the town square and flogged...
This is the most I have miled
the most I have smiled, too...
Sounds like someone was getting pretty snippy!
laughingstock?...he should be an inmate
“Green” has a different meaning to Al than it does to his useful idiot follower cult.
“has=hasn’t”
This is an appropriate comment on any Al Gore thread.
The takedown of The Elites has just begun.
LOL. Good point!
And yet, if I read this right, he was reelected to the board. The laughter doesn’t seem to have been nearly widespread enough.
He’s been spotted.
The global warming fraud has been beddy beddy good to Al Gore.
Time to give that “peace” prize to someone more deserving....
It takes some people a loooong time ...
There are some people who refuse to buy Apple products BECAUSE AL Gore is on the Board. I’m guessing the number will grow the more we learn about the rigging of climate data to substantiate the hoax.
Another demo I can not stand (Gore.)
But he is laughing all the way to the bank.
What a world we live in- crooks at every turn.
