Gore Accuses Limbaugh, Fox and the Wall Street Journal of Conspiring to Mislead Public About Global Warming By Noel Sheppard Created 02/21/2011 - 10:59am
The man that has made millions spreading the global warming myth claimed Friday that there's a conspiracy to mislead the public about the dangers of climate change.
The Aspen Times reported Monday that Nobel Laureate Al Gore said conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh, Fox News, and the Wall Street Journal editorial page were involved:
Gore, 62, delivered a 50-minute keynote address for a symposium on “Forests at Risk: Climate Change and the Future of the American West.” The event, hosted by the local nonprofit For the Forest, was held in the Doerr-Hosier Center at The Aspen Institute.
In a question-and-answer session that followed his speech, Gore was asked about the intense opposition to the idea of manmade global warming.
"He said many global corporations base their profit margins on the ability to pollute," reported the Times. "They have banded together and spent billions of dollars in the media and in political campaigns, even hiring 'four anti-climate lobbyists for every member of Congress.'”
“And they said, if the public becomes convinced that this is what the scientists say it is, then it's ‘game over' for us,” Gore said.
Gore.jpgAccording to the Times, he claimed their objective was "to transform global warming into a theory rather than a fact. And so the opponents of the effort to recognize climate change embarked upon a 'dedicated, cynical, lavishly funded strategy,' utilizing conservative talk radio, commentator Rush Limbaugh and his many imitators, the Wall Street Journal editorial page, Fox News and other right-wing outlets."
Imagine that.
The man whose schlockumentary has been so discredited that a British judge in 2007 noted nine material falsehoods in "An Inconvenient Truth" that must be disclosed to students if shown in a public school is pointing fingers at others for conspiring to spread misinformation.
Also hysterical is his claim that "global corporations base their profit margins on the ability to pollute" as it seems a metaphysical certitude that his own profits and investments in advancing this myth didn't surface during his address or the subsequent Q & A.
It's also doubtful Gore discussed his own political action group or the hundreds of millions of dollars it has spent trying to scare people into thinking that a less than one degree Celsius rise in global temperatures in the past 160 years is destroying the planet.
No, the real purveyors of half-truths and unproven theories are Rush Limbaugh, the Journal, Fox News, and other right-wing outlets.
Makes you wonder what the color of the sky is on the planet Gore's from as well as its average temperature.
And if the Chicago Climate Exchange hadn't been exposed as a fraud, he stood be a billionaire.
Lucky for Gore, there's still the Pacific Climate Exchange. So there's still hope.
I’m still amazed that this man is in the public eye. Lots of stupid people out there.

Now there’s a pot-kettle-black if ever I have seen one.
Spent a windy day at the beach this weekend and my 15 year old daughter kept doing her “It’s not the wind” Al Gore impression from Family Guy.
She cracks me up with her impressions.

The only nonprofit corps we should have in the US are those that feed, clothe or house humans. That is it.
There is a conspiracy, but Al Gore is it’s chief cheerleader
Sounds like an admission on Gore’s part that “the jig is up” re: the man made global warming myth (aka the “reduce the population to third world status under totalitarianism to save the planet” myth) , and he’s publicly blaming the ones he thinks are most to blame for preventing him becoming a megabillionaire/global dictator in the name of stopping AGW.
Like all self-important liberals, his opinions are to be greeted with unquestioning devotion because they are so incredibly well thought out and brilliant.
Sorry Al, your ship has sailed.
Lol. Funny headline coming from Gore
What are liberals, Alex?
(And I'm not even an IBM computer, just an average human being.)
Oh, never heard of it huh?
MIT's Dr. Richard Lindzen's 48-page Congressional Testimony: 'Increase in CO2 ..... will lead to very little warming, and that the connection of this minimal warming (or even significant warming) to the purported catastrophes is also minimal.
The arguments on which the catastrophic claims are made are extremely weak – and commonly acknowledged as such. (snip)
Given the above, the notion that alarming warming is ‘settled science’ should be offensive to any sentient individual, though to be sure, the above is hardly emphasized by the IPCC.
Not like Albore would use this image, as he did, to mislead the public.
Al Gore has gone from someone with potential to support the sciences to someone caught up in his own lies for money.
The day Al Gore reduces his ‘carbon footprint’ down to that of the average American family is the day I give a rat’s rear about what Al Gore says. If we are truly in the crisis that he says it is, he should lead the way. Mr. Gore, undoubtedly has a higher use of ‘discretionary’ energy. He should be able to cut his use much easier than the rest of us. Get rid of the air conditioning, Al. Get rid of the second houses. Use teleconferencing instead of jetting around the world. Until you do, you are NOTHING, Al.
