What's Up With That?The week in Gore:February 2, 2013
Al Gore has been running the interview circuit this week, and it seems since his sale of CURRENT TV to Al Jazeerra he has gone from golden boy to goblin boy in the eyes of the media.
He’s pushing his usual set of tabloid climatology claims in the process, but all they want to know about is why he sold out to “big oil”.
Below are a few excerpts from headlines and some interviews. My favorite is from my radio commentator friend Lars Larson in Portland, who had so much fun with Gore yesterday.
h/t to Tom Nelson for may of these stories:
Al Gore: “Roughly a quarter of the 90 million tons of global warming pollution… each day will still linger there – still trapping heat – more than 10,000 years from now.”
The Future, By Al Gore – Reviews – Books – The Independent
The discussion is framed in terms of a timescale far, far beyond any normal policy horizon. “Roughly a quarter of the 90 million tons of global warming pollution… each day will still linger there – still trapping heat – more than 10,000 years from now.”
Hypocrite Gore Targets Fox News But Is OK with Oily Al-Jazeera
After praising the integrity, independence and journalistic standards of foreign oil-backed anti-American Al Jazeera, the former Vice President took a swipe at Fox News Channel.
The video appears clandestine, because as we know Gore does not allow recording of some appearances.
Former Vice President Al Gore spoke with Charlie Rose on January 29th on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. After praising the integrity, independence and journalistic standards of foreign oil-backed anti-American Al Jazeera, the former Vice President took a swipe at Fox News Channel.
ROSE: Why do you think [Obama] was cautious in the first four years?
GORE: Because…
ROSE: … he is a cautious man?
GORE: I think it has been a pretty hostile environment for progressive ideas.
ROSE: And why is that? That you’re saying it’s a very hostile environment for progressive ideas because of the importance of money in corporations or…
GORE: And Fox News and the right-wing talk radio. And yeah I mean, it’s not that complicated. In Tennessee there’s an old saying if you see a turtle on a fence post you can be pretty sure it didn’t get there by itself. And the fact that we have 24/7 propaganda masquerading as news, it does have an impact.
Gore also praised liberal billionaire George Soros as a “wonderful guy” who should have “more influence” while discussing money in politics.

Remember to look out for 'The Week in Gore' every week here at FR!
But this putz Al Gore who destroys economies, jobs, people with a hoax, a guy who has never held a job that paid more that $220K a year yet is worth $200 million, who sexually assaulted a massuese, is still flitting about with not so much as a parking ticket. Oh yes, and don't even get me started on Jon Corzine or Nancy Pelosi.
Thanks for posting this bit on the clown.
al gore .. mad climate scientist
I see this Criminal is still not behind bars.
I was actually thinking of making a Pings list for ‘The Week in Gore’ and your comments have got me seriously thinking about it. I think there’s real interest, demand by the public to keep tabs on this guy. I’ll see what the response is during the week from the comments and if the response to ‘The Week in Gore’ is positive, I’ll commit to doing a ‘Hot Air Pings List’. We’ll see.
I’m in!
