Gore Attaches Global Warming as Cause to Last Weekend's Storm in Northeast

If there’s a drought – it’s global warming. When there’s a hurricane – it’s global warming. If there are heavy snows or even blizzards – it’s somehow global warming. And amazingly, the latest round of rainy and windy weather in the Northeast, well that’s consistent with this phenomenon as well, so says former Vice President Al Gore.

Gore, the self-anointed climate change alarmist-in-chief, told supporters on a March 15 conference call that severe weather in certain regions of the country could be attributed to carbon in the atmosphere – including the recent rash of rainy weather.

“[T]he odds have shifted toward much larger downpours,” Gore said. “And we have seen that happen in the Northeast, we’ve seen it happen in the Northwest – in both of those regions are among those that scientists have predicted for a long time would begin to experience much larger downpours.”

But Gore had a specific example in mind. He explained this recent soaking in the Northeastern United States was “consistent” with what global warming alarmists were projecting.

“Just look at what has been happening for the last three days,” Gore said. “The so-called skeptics haven’t noted it because it’s not snow. But the downpours and heavy winds are consistent with what the scientists have long warned about.”

So what did Gore suggest? He proposed to solve these weather events he tied to climate change by revamping the American economy to being powered by “clean renewable energy” and phasing out the reliance of foreign oil.

We’re all needing something to laugh at today. Good for Al.

Oh, give it up, Al.

[syriacus]

Gore is making us atone for his "sins."

His original fortune came from oil and tobacco.

[alaskanfan]

phasing out the reliance of foreign oil.

We're with you there Al. Drill baby drill. Can you say jobs?

Hell, he has made hundreds of millions of dollars on Global Warming so, he wants to make billions evidently. The guy is a putz.

I’ve spent a lot of time this winter shoveling out from under all of the global warming that fell in my area.

Like this is at all shocking. Puh-leeze.

[Oldpuppymax]

Even AlGore cannot be THAT stupid/ignorant/much of an ass. Nope. He’s proved beyond a reasonable doubt that he is little more than a money and power grubbing, leftist, media and “global warming” attention whore.

Post #7: LOL! May we copy the picture and send it around, Andy?

[MsLady]

Good, let him talk. The more he talks the less people will listen. He sounds to any normal thinking person, like a nut.

Falsifiability: Falsifiability is an important concept in science and the philosophy of science. The concept was made popular by Karl Popper, who, in his philosophical analysis of the scientific method, concluded that a hypothesis, proposition, or theory is "scientific" only if it is falsifiable.

In less enlightened days, Popper asserted that theories like AGW are not science. Nobel Prize winning scientists, like Algore, have advanced since those days.

And why does anyone give a smelly Obama about what Gore says about anything?

Good grief, folks, he’s flunked just about everything he tried in college - which is why he became a senator.

[andy58-in-nh]

Be my guest - that’s what I did. ;-)

[COUNTrecount]

So now he's a scientist too? This is how Al controls the weather from the basement of his giant mansion.

Right.....because we never have severe storms in March when the seasons are changing. It's so implausible we'd have cold and warm fronts meeting at this time of the year.

Gore released financial records before the 2000 elections that showed his net worth at $1.5 to $2 million. Today his net worth stands at $100 to $200 million dollars. One company he is invested in received over a half a billion in subsidies from the government. Where are the disclaimers when this fat huckster speaks?

[alaskanfan]

If there is a bigger assclown on the face of the planet he has yet to be revealed.

And some folks would tell you that “W” stole the election from this guy. All I can say is Thank God.
