I have the drinks....

[Peach]

I'll be listening on and off. Thanks for the ping.

[Bahbah]

Thanks for the thread.

I will have to leave just about the time that the Goracle makes his grand entrance :(

[Socratic]

If not one Senator asks him to explain the graph which shows that, through large periods of time, global warming precedes CO2 increases, then I will know that not one person in Congress cares about the science, but merely the politics of the issue.

[Mo1]

I think we are gonna need a lot more then that :0)

[tiredoflaundry]

LOL....... I know!

[Quilla]

Circus ping!

[Always Right]

Of course Al Gore did not provide a transcript of his statement 48 hours before he appeared like every other person making a statement before congress is required. That would have given too much time for his opponents to expose all Gore's inconvenient lies.

[yoe]

(The great global warming swindle) Be sure to watch this and send on to your lists.

[Always Right]

Would love to see Al Gore charged with perjury for his lies he is going to spew before Congress.

Hmmmm ... Think the Dems will demand that Gore is put under oath??

Yea .. I didn't think so

[Always Right]

Hmmmm ... Think the Dems will demand that Gore is put under oath??

He doesn't have to be for it to be a crime.

[ken5050]

While you're waiting..go here to watch John Edwards make a fool of himself combing his hair..This somehow has flow uner the radar until now..

[DBrow]

"global warming precedes CO2 increases,"

Good point! That, and a mention of Milankovitch Cycles, and a discussion of the Maunder Minimum are my keys for checking "science".

[Carolinamom]

Over Here Ping!

[Vision]

Do we know the exact start times? I'd heard 9:30, then 2:30.

[OldFriend]

If the senators ask serious questions they'll have to agree that the man made theory is just that......man made......and not scientific at all.

[kabar]

Gore was supposed to submit his prepared statement to the committee 48 hours before the hfearing. From what I have read, he has yet to submit his statement, which is a violation of committee rules. I guess he doesn't want anyone to know what he is going to say so that they can't challenge him during the hearing.

[Mo1]

It's both - one hearing is for the House .. the next with for the Senate

[ken5050]

Twice???...wih the SAME opening remarks??

BTW..anyone have a track of Paul Simon's "You can call me Al?"

[tiredoflaundry]

Boxer is on Fox right now saying they have Gore's statement.

[ken5050]

I can probably stand to listen to it for about 15 minutes, then Rush will dissect it for us at noon..

[kabar]

I hope you are right. I will wait to see how tough the Reps are in questioning him and whether they have done their homework. You can bet the Dems know what Gore is going to say and will be supporting him.

[timydnuc]

The democrats are in charge of this thing so I expect there will be more butt sniffing than at the Westminster dog show.

[Mo1]

She is dumber then a box of rocks

[kabar]

When did they recieve it?

[tiredoflaundry]

Boxer is also not letting Bill Hemmer question her.

[tiredoflaundry]

Ahem........ she did not say! ;o)

[pinz-n-needlez]

All Al Gore, all day! LOL

[Mo1]

These hearings are a sham and all for show
The Dems will go out of their way to praise Gore and telling him how wonderful he is
The Republicans will try to ask questions
Gore will stall and the Dems will try to cover for him

[kabar]

I guess we will find out when one of the Reps mentioned that they didn't receive it according to the rules of the committee.

[ken5050]

There's a vote on issuing subpoenas on the US atty firings in about 30 minutes...

[Mo1]

Boxer is also not letting Bill Hemmer question her.

She accused him if sounding like Senator Inhofe

[tiredoflaundry]

The thing is , I hope someone does mention it!

[tiredoflaundry]

Yup! Actually I was surprised to see Boxer on Fox!

[pinz-n-needlez]

Has anyone linked Inhofe's article about Global Warming (sic)?

[Miss Marple]

Someone tell me exactly WHERE this fisco will be shown, please. If it's on C-SPAN3, I will have to depend on transcripts from kind people on the thread.

[Mo1]

Aren't we lucky ... LOL

[Bahbah]

It is C-Span3, unfortunately.

[tiredoflaundry]

As far as I know, C Span 3.

This cooling has already killed hundreds of thousands of people. If it continues and no strong action is taken, it will cause world famine, world chaos and world war, and this could all come about before the year 2000. -- Lowell Ponte “The Cooling,” 1976

If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder by the year 2000...This is about twice what it would take to put us in an ice age. -- Kenneth E.F. Watt on air pollution and global cooling, Earth Day (1970)
