Gore admits it is ok to lie and frighten people.......
Q: There's a lot of debate right now over the best way to communicate about global warming and get people motivated. Do you scare people or give them hope? What's the right mix?
A: I think the answer to that depends on where your audience's head is. In the United States of America, unfortunately we still live in a bubble of unreality. And the Category 5 denial is an enormous obstacle to any discussion of solutions. Nobody is interested in solutions if they don't think there's a problem. Given that starting point, I believe it is appropriate to have an over-representation of factual presentations on how dangerous it is, as a predicate for opening up the audience to listen to what the solutions are, and how hopeful it is that we are going to solve this crisis. -Al Gore

The answer to this is simple. The greens will switch the marketing slogan to "human caused climate change". Then, no matter what happens, warm, cold, rising or falling sea, the problem will be people, and the lack of authority over them.
The solution will always be, more authority is needed.

"Last month Colorado had about 20 feet of snow fall in little more than a week's time
Uh, fact check: No, we didn't. We got a lot - about 7 feet in some places (5 feet at my house), but it was over a month period of time. And it wasn't 20 feet. Some mountain areas occasionally will get 20 feet in a week - but not yet this year.

Attributing "global warming" whole new type of volcano -- small ones at that, seems a bit of a stretch. There are a lot of other competing hypothesis to the green house gas theory. OTOH, the notion that Gore & co. have everything backward -- that it's the hotter oceans that are causing increased CO2, does seem plausible. Maybe if this whole topic weren't a wedge issue for partisan politics, our scientists would give this possibility due consideration.
BTW -- the alarmists are now calling it "climate change" -- that way they've got it covered no matter what happens. Since there is no doubt that climate is always changing, they can't lose.

Yup, I had to shovel 12 inches of Global Warming out of my driveway.

I was laughing today at the greenie lib who was trying to explain to Rush that the melting icebergs are "floating away from the poles and cooling the air farther down the globe."

Suffice it to say that unless Al Gore has managed to repeal a demonstrated law of nature, the iceman cometh. Imagine the prestige of being known as "the guy who cooled the earth."
Al was probably hoping to get credit for encouraging the actions that he could pretend "caused" the inevitable global cooling.

If 20 inches of precipitation fell as snow, it would total 20 feet. Is this a fact?

Didn't you see "The Day After Tomorrow"? Don't you know that Global Warming will bring on an Ice Age that will cause your helicopter engine to freeze in midflight???
