Gore's Myanmar Words as Inopportune as they were Repulsive
American Thinker ^ | May 07, 2008 | Marc Sheppard

Posted on 05/08/2008 6:13:39 AM PDT by Delacon

Thirty days after Steve McIntyre caught NASA cooking climate history again - this time in a feeble attempt to somehow conceal the alarmist-embarrassing  downward trend since 1998 -- Al Gore shamelessly portrayed Saturday's Myanmar cyclone catastrophe as a ‘consequence' of global warming. 

A mere 16 days after NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory confirmed that the Pacific Decadal Oscillation's cool phase shift would likely bring colder temperatures for as many as the next 20-30 years, Gore told NPR that the "trend toward stronger and more destructive storms appears to be linked to global warming and specifically to the impact of global warming on higher ocean temperatures."  This just 6 days after a German study also predicted cooler ocean temperatures due to the Meridional Overturning Circulation entering a weak cycle, and in spite of there being absolutely no empirical evidence of a global warming / storm strength link. 

Gore's monotonous and baseless account of AGW forced violent cyclones and hurricanes came just two days after McIntyre reported that 4 of the past 5 months were "'all-time' records for Southern Hemisphere sea ice" levels.

In fact, it was the very day after Anthony Watts reported another false start to the distinctly overdue Solar Cycle 24, a likely contributory factor to falling global temperatures, that the Nobel Peace Prize winner exploited the deaths of over 22,000 (reported and still rising) human beings to egoistically advance his threatened AGW political agenda while callously protecting his personal financial interest.

And with 41,000 reported missing since Cyclone Nargis devastated the former Burma, the death figures are sure to rise to unthinkable numbers.  Meanwhile, the nation's corrupt military rulers are making aid delivery to ease survivor misery nearly impossible.

And while these poor souls will undoubtedly see years of unimaginable suffering and the arduous rebuilding of over a million destroyed homes, this man -- who professes his desire to save the planet - saw another opportunity.  That it arrived at the end of a one month period in which another wheel fell off the greenhouse gas disinformation bus almost daily only adds to the morass.

This was an astonishingly nauseating display -- even for the likes of Gore.

But Gore MUST be right. Anyone smart enough to invent the internet must be a genius way beyond any of our feeble attempts at intelligence.

I’m actually surprised Gore is still talking about “global warming”. Most of the other econuts have changed to using “catastrophic climate change” as a hedge against the ever increasing evidence that we are actually facing a cooling period. So what’s with Al? Is he just too invested in the warming concept, or did he somehow not get the memo?

Those who speak out against the orthodoxy are fired, have grants cancelled, are accused of being shills for the oil companies, etc. Many are just too intimidated.

Here are some earlier typhoon deaths:

1737 India 300,000 dead
1839 India 300,000+ dead
1881 Vietnam 300,000 dead
1970 Bangladesh 500,000 dead
1991 Bangladesh 138,000 dead

Was there global warming back then? No, Algore invented it.

But then I just saw a new FORD commercial, where they are selling their new Hybrid. It was even more sickening in regards to Gorebull Warming. A Woman assembly worker saying how we MUST act NOW to save the planet, and she is doing her part. (And that buying a Ford Green car will do it.

Sort of reminds me of the old World War 2 propaganda, Rosie the Riveter, doing her part to save the World from evil.

This Whole Green propaganda is only about to get much more intense. NOTHING stampedes Liberal Lemmings more or faster than fear.

Gore is in a position to make an immense fortune from global warming-mitigation efforts.

This statement alone says it all! This should be repeated ever time that Gore mentions Global Warming.

Yah Yah Gore is insensitive nearly inert.
I think he has gotten lessons from a great man in Steve Jobs. I hope Mr. Jobs can see that you can't make a silk purse out of a self important sow. Besides I heard that Gore betrayed this country when he stole a top secret data storage device and gave it to apple to secure his place on the apple board. SCUM/ipod.

Well, Thank You Marc Sheppard.

Gore has a new name. He’s not a moron. He’s a MORASS.

LOL, AmWay folded intself into a shell company called Quixtar, exact same MLM structure, exact same product lineup, same marketing materials and supply chain etc.

BUT in China, AmWay is called American Way, and apparently it is one of the better ways for Chinese cityfolk to get a leg up by peddling goods with “American” on the label.

I’m sure Gore would shut them down as Amway in China peddles too many consumer goods that cause global warming, Gore surely believes the yellow dogs need no more than their Nao provided iron rice bowls, not a 6 seating multihued floral patterned dish set with matching napkin rings and available matching glassware.

Nauseating for sure, but I wasn't especially 'astonished' that Al Gore would stoop that low. It's what any keen observer would expect of him. He has always been the ultimate bottom feeder.

It's become quite obvious that Al Gore can be counted on by the Burmese military dictatorship to distract the world from the fact that their mismanagement of their country murdered 500,000 of their countrymen.

We must presume, unless he can demonstrate otherwise, that Al Gore said what he did for that purpose.

Like all Democrat politicians, nothing ol' Al likes better than some genocide eh.
