Clive Palmer and Al Gore become convenient allies
Herald Sun (Melbourne) ^ | 30th June 2014 | Andrew Bolt

Posted on 06/29/2014 5:12:27 PM PDT by naturalman1975

AL Gore, the world’s most famous global warming guru, last week used Australia to trash what’s left of his reputation.

The Nobel prize-winning alarmist didn’t just tell his disciples here more astonishing falsehoods about the climate of the kind that’s good for his business. (See Gore’s truth for his latest whoppers.)

Gore also meddled in our climate politics to the undisclosed benefit of his business partners, and against the interests of Australians.

And in return for a favour, he falsely praised coal baron Clive Palmer as a planet-saver, when Palmer was in fact destroying our biggest schemes to tackle global warming.

This fraud started on Wednesday, when Palmer presented Gore at a press conference called to announce whether he’d help the Abbott Government axe the carbon tax.

The warmist journalists there, notably from Fairfax newspapers and the ABC, were completely fooled by the surprise appearance of their warmist god.

They just saw Gore and concluded — of course! — Palmer was actually saving the carbon tax, not scrapping it.

After all, didn’t Gore praise “this extraordinary moment in which Australia, the United States and the rest of the world is beginning to confront the crisis in a meaningful way”?

Listening with their eyes, they barely registered what Palmer actually said — that not only would his senators join the Government to scrap the carbon tax, they’d block its own “direct action” policies as well.

Gore followers, Obama followers, rino followers are just like those who followed Jim Jones to Guyana. They’re blind and gullible.

I watched the video. Yes. Gore really pulled off a cute one on the news media with his statements. What an operator.

Al Gore has labelled Tony Abbott a “straight-out climate denier” and warned he should “change or get out of the way”.

I guess he thinks he’s in a position to talk down to governments all around the world because he’s got a medal from the same people who gave one to Arafat.
