According to the UN, the time was up in the year 2000.

I say we tell him we will set out on this goal.

How long will it take to permit & build the 1000’s of wind towers, the new transmission lines?

How fast can we install the acres and acres of new solar panels we will need when we no longer use any fossil based fuel?

Will AlGore be able to help expedite the permitting process for these new wind & solar farms?

Will we be able to build any wind towers in New England or are they too sensitive to have to look at one?

How about offshore, or will they kill birds?

Where do we put these wind towers, Al?

What about the nuclear power plants currently producing power?

What about the coal plants?

Do we abandon all the drilling rigs in the Gulf of Mexico right now or in ten years?

Do we retro fit our homes that heat with nat gas to now heat with ‘what’?

Everyone here has told us about the HOAX the Snake Oil Salesman Algore is selling. He has told us the debate is OVER. He also has told us we all OWE, Cap and Trade and all that!! We have another guy OBAMAMAN trying for the WH, and the MSM almost can’t stand it they love him so much. Obamaman is in Iraq right now pimping President Bush’s middle east policy, taking credit for all the good and TELLING any who will listen what HE INTENDS TO DO AS PRESIDENT!! If this isn’t worth a backlash against this huckster, I don’t know what is. Ever wonder where the DNC gets these losers??

"a kid"

Maybe you remember Paul Ehrlich of "The Population Bomb" infamy. He was on all the talk shows with his number one bestseller in the late sixties prophesying hundreds of millions of starved to death humans by the 1990's. It never happened. And I've never read anything in Big Media by lib reporters who regret being played for fools by that charlatan. Ehrlich is still a big name in the enviro-wacko movement. Apparently in the leftist movement when you get proved one hundred percent wrong, it elevates your status.

I’ll never forget that kook. Paul Ehrlich was the poster child for kook alarm ism back in the 90’s.

...followed by the prophesy of global winter... All RATS have to offer is crisis and panic, because if you thought for one minute, you wouldn't buy this snake oil.

Rush had a clock on his website counting down to THE END according to Big Al.

Not sure if it's still there since he revamped the site. He also had a graph showing how much “the rich” and everyone else paid in taxes.
