Those who insist on doing (saying) the same thing over and over and expecting a different result are f’in INSANE. Gore qualifies.

"I heard on Rush once where he mentioned a time when it was global cooling that was the terror ...like in 1973 or so ..."

Some of us don't have to hear it on Rush - we just remember it.
That's what makes us so disinclined to believe the scare du jour.

35 years ago, it was all about how we were moving into another Ice Age!
The glaciers would devour Detroit!!!
Life as we know it would end!!!

But then they realized, there was nothing they could lay off on automobiles, so "global cooling" just wasn't going to accomplish anything they wanted.

LOL! Actually being a kid back then was great. I would hope being a kid anytime is great. I guess that’s up to the kid.

Howdy

I had the pleasure of a nice conversation with a UN Special Ambassador on Global Climate Change some years ago. Sill got his card somewhere...

I confronted him on the anecdotal nature of scientific literature regarding global warming, and a number of glaring inadequacies in the science, hoping to hear some objective basis for the global warming... movement, if you will.

He had nothing. Literally, nothing.

In the years since, lower troposphere temperature measurements reveal that every degree of escalated global temperature has vanished, temperatures worldwide are below historical norms and still trending down.

There never was a shred of credible scientific basis for concern over global warming as a function of human activity, and I’d be more than happy to share data and statistics, but it is all beside the point.

Global warming is a phenomenon of political science, not natural science. It always has been.

Europe is ruled, not governed. America alone enjoys a political structure which respects individual sovereignty. People enjoy ownership over their own lives. What one may not understand as an American is, the rest of the planet is relatively barbaric by comparison, and they are sick of failing in competition with human liberty. We have redeemed a barbaric world from colonialism, the African slave trade, two world wars and a century of struggle against socialist imperialism.

Domestic barbarians and foreign, primarily European, see a golden opportunity to reduce you from liberated humanity to relatively more enslaved people over a broad agenda of global rule, and the global warming agenda is item one on the agenda.

In a word, you will be subject to a tax on the weather folks, that’s the plan.

There is no basis nor reason for the global warming agenda but to deprive you of liberty.

A generation ago, the notion that politicians would tax you for your weather would get a chuckle and a nod.

Now, it is reality.

It should be clear to everyone now that global cooling is a real problem. In fact, the cooling of the earth’s temperature is a real crisis that demands action.

Your glaciers are back. What do we do now?

The single constant in the record of global climate is constant change.

There is nothing we can do to change the climate of the Earth.

Pretzel logic is the foundation on which all Liberal scams are built.

Because we are millionaire billionaires, our mantra is “Tax the evil rich!!”

Because we are generally rich, racist elitists and exploitative opportunists, our mantra is “we stand-up for poor minorities!!”

Everything is opposite. It's like bizzaro world.

Libs are experts at holding two or more diametrically opposed and absolutely contradictory principals as all being equally worthy and true.

In the case of “global warming” (snicker) they have created a particularly Gordian train of logic. They support the global despotism and socialism that is the baggage associated with the movement. But supporting the movement hurts their Muslim brothers who are the primary contributors to their other antics such as Greenpeace, Anwar, PETA, anti-nuc etc.

So they walk the fine line of banning carbon fuels and to do fund raising to ostensibly support alternative energy and “greening” the planet while making sure that the negative repercussions of this nonsense only affects the U.5. and the status quo is maintained. That is their charge and it is amusing to watch them juggle, especially now. With the current state of the world they are juggling on a trampoline.

In hardship people are forced to grow up and mature and they become much less tolerant of bulls**t. This does not bode well for Mr. Gore or Mr. Soreto.

The Goron is an idiot and 0bama is less than that because he’s buying into the fraud.

The high school dropouts of Hollywood will never preach science to me.

One reviewer called the movie’s ecological emphasis “preachy.”

Almost all Hollywood stuff is "preachy".

That scolding and lecturing stuff is worth the price of the ticket... (NOT)

Yes, then we can ski the slopes of the levees. That’s the only altitude around here.
