We are so lucky that Algore didn’t manage to steal the presidency in 2000.

I dunno. Given the current regime.

I wonder though... is it worse to have a President who actually believes this AGW nonsense (Al Gore)? Or is it worse to have a President who isn't stupid enough to believe it, or is surrounded by parties who don't believe it, but who (as tyrants do) exploit the belief for political gain?

I don't see any evidence that Al Gore ever believed his global warming alarmism.

If Al Gore really, truly believed, he wouldn't have been ducking from debate, ever, in the past 20 years. He would have happy to show all of his evidence and debate it with any non-believers until the cows come home.

He would have done everything in his power to avoid the appearance of hypocrisy as well. He would have reduced his actual carbon footprint substantially. He would live in a small, sustainable house powered entirely by solar or wind energy. He would eat small portions of sustainable, locally grown ingredients. He would limit his travel, and ride mass transportation whenever possible.

Also, if Al Gore really believed in the science of global warming, he would be thrilled to find evidence which contradicts his beliefs. He wouldn't be burying it and hiding from it. Imagine if you thought you had cancer. Later on, evidence surfaces that you didn't have cancer, or that it wasn't as bad as you thought. Would you be happy or sad about that?

I'm not cutting Gore one inch of slack on this whole debacle. He needs to be publicly humiliated for the rest of eternity. His name needs to be synonymous with Charles Ponzi or Bernie Madoff as one of the great swindlers in history.
