FORMER US vice president Al Gore plans to train 1000 messengers he hopes will spread out across the country and present a slide show about global warming that captures the essence of his Hollywood documentary and book.
Mr Gore, a Democrat, said today that by the end of the northern summer he would start a bipartisan education campaign to train the messengers.
They will give a version of his slide show on global warming featured in the film An Inconvenient Truth and book of the same name.
"This moment cannot be allowed to pass," Mr Gore said in New York.
"I have seen and heard times before when the awareness of the climate crisis has peaked and then a few months later it's gone. I think this time is different, but I have to say I'm not certain of that."
The book is an expanded version of the film, An Inconvenient Truth.
Both are based on a slide show he has given more than 1000 times in the past 30 years on the dangers of global warming.
He says climate change is a crisis that has become a moral issue.
Most scientists believe carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases trap the sun's heat in the atmosphere leading to stronger storms and rising sea levels that could swamp low-lying islands by 2100.
Mr Gore said all the profits from his film and the book would be donated to train the messengers.
He said the carriers of the message would give the slide show at high schools and rotary clubs in the US and around the world.
Mr Gore said today, as he has consistently, that he had no plans to run for president in 2008.
He said he would continue to give the slide show even as the messengers gave their versions.
Gore math: 1,000=37.
He couldn't count in Florida, either!!! :)
This guy should be running from the men in the white coats.
How many messengers can he train for a $100?
Just great! Will they turn up on my doorstep like the Adventists?
Oh,
I
HOPE
so!
FRiend, I like to think that he still doesn't count--for anything.
Hollywood indeed. The gospel of Gore...sounds bullish to me. Something horned.
See #2! We seem to have read it in the same light!
Stupid is as stupid does.
LOL, except Jesus only needed 12.
If he really gave a hoot he would just post the stupid 1,000 slides on the Internet...for free.
...not to mention that Jesus' message was The Truth!!!
;-)
The truth is Gore is always inconvienent.
Algore to lead the Army of the 12 Monkeys
well he did create the internet, so u would expect him to know this...al gore is a muppet, a total and complete muppet
Bush 41 "A thousand points of light"
Gore "A thousand points of bullshit"
Good thought, the internet would be perfect, he should of thought of that being as he invented it..
If Gore didn't exist, then we conservatives would have to invent him. Thanks, Al, for being such a jackass and making me laugh!
Gore is so F.O.S.! He really believes his own BS.
Yeah first thing that came to mind was "Gore's Apostles of the First Church of Global Warming".
This is SUPER SERIAL!
Ahhh....I'd like a recount.
1000 disciples, when you simply can't burn enough fossil fuels yourself why not seek additional help in destroying the environment.
Door-to-door messengers will be called...
"Gore's Mormons"
The thousand apostles to the Antichrist!
I heard his film did very porrly in the test theatres. They are going to roll it out in 450-500 soon...expect the media to manipulate the numbers to make it look like it is succeeding.
<< I think he's running for Jesus. He has his "good book," and he's sending out disciples to spread his word.
I'd have expected it of hillary ... >>
Too bad for them, though, that even pooling their IQs they're not collectively smart enough to constitute the world's most dangerous dullard!
Certainly the most stupid couple of dumb clucks in all of Human History to ever take a dump between two shoes.
While he's at it, he might consider training another bunch to spread the word about Peter Pan, The Lord of the Rings, and a few other fairy tales.

Message to Gore messengers. Remember Pat Buchanan.
The Pope, a Catholic...
Spreading the Gorespel.
Zarc only had 300 in his invasive army.
Gotta give Gore credit though. We know how well his book "Earth in the Lurch" has held up over time. (Try finding it now in Borders, etc.) Gore is trying any stunt to keep his tanked movie in the news--well at least the MSM if that counts as news anymore.
Good one!
The first thing I thought was "Church of the Immaculate Climate". I'm sure someone will do the photoshop of Gore instead of Madonna up on that cross.
Gore: "He BETRAYED us!!""
Gore: "He PLAYED on our FEARS!!"
Gore: "Bush shouldn't be doing those things, that's MY job!! It's why I made my movie!"
Bush Sr. had his 1000 points of light. Gore has his 1000 points of darkness.

The original disciples did not have to be paid and didn't spread out until Jesus ascended to heaven.
Will they go in pairs and wear white shirts and ties with a name tag on the pocket identifying them of missionaries in their religion?
The Mormons are up front about it, and since the left has no qualms stealing whatever works for them and calling it their own that model would probably suffice.
It seems only fair that they be required to be upfront in their proselytizing for Al's Church of the Environment.
I wonder if Al envisions himself Pope, or something less assuming, such as Bishop? "Father Al" has a nice ring to it.
I can see him wondering around a ward in robes preaching to the other hopelessly delusional nutjobs.
1000 unabombers?
And so it came to pass that the new Messiah having been blessed with a vision from the Earth Goddess set about to gather and inform his disciples in the ways of the faith and the many calamaties about to occur unless they embraced and cast upon the waters of the lands the wisdom of his words where the fishermen of truth could repair their wasteful ways by sparing the snare and sharing each precious morsel remaining of the meager harvest to come; they set off one bright day, 1,000 strong to save the world.
Algore the Great led the pack, head held high with righteous pride, they spread across our vast expanse, no soul alive could then have known that a king was born that fateful day, the one and same to which we pray and thank for each crumb today.
Suggested blessing for the evening meal of the not-so-distant future.
Everyone! Dance and sing with Gore's disciples now!
All Hail, Hare Gore!
Gore is Krishna! We praise Gore!
He protect us from bad men!
Peace and Love, is what Gore sends!
He bless us with Internet!
Greater man we have not met!
Gore is Krishna, We need Gore!
He lifts wings and makes us soar!
He protect our Mother Earth!
She bless mankind, with his birth!
All Hail, Hare Gore!
Gore is Krishna! We praise Gore!
