Al Gore???

Question

i hate the man Whats your take?

Answer 1

He is a FRAUD....

If he really cared about his hyped of global warming he would have done something as the Vice President of the United States of America..the most powerful nation in the world. He would not have waited until he was a first time filmmaker and making an independent film.

Answer 2

What you said sums it up. The hypocrite had our plotting coming. Oh and to the guy who says we are the crazy right tearing down a decent man...get a life. The liberals tear down more decent men than the conservatives could point a stick at.

For instance, the current "controversy" over a bunch of lawyers is just a bunch of rubbish invented by the Democrats to destroy Bush's reputation in the most cruel and indecent way possible. Bill Clinton himself fired more than thirty of these same lawyers when he entered office, all on the same day and no one complained.

The fact is the Dems have no morals and the Reps do. The Democrats can get away with anything [Cindy Sheehan and Hillary Clinton were arrested, but no one told you that and they were released a few hours later] but when a Republican fouls up in anyway, the press gets all over the latest "scandal."

Answer 3

Lying sack of ****, period.

Why?

The idea that there is an imminent impending global disaster resulting from human actions is a complete and utter lie, plain and simple. Either Al Gore is an unbelievably stupid man or he’s laughing all the way to the bank at the stupidity of the general public that’s willing to pay money to see his movie. “An Inconvenient Truth” would be more appropriately titled “A Convenient Lie” – convenient for Al Gore anyway who has now produced the third highest grossing documentary of all time – over $24,000,000 to date ($47 million world-wide). That doesn’t include the additional unjust profits earned from book sales and speaking engagements.

His film would lead you to believe that every single scientist even remotely qualified to study global climate change agrees that disaster is imminent and that humankind is the direct cause. The reality of the situation is quite the opposite – most qualified scientists vehemently disagree with this assertion.

It is unbelievable how many people believe and treat this complete and utter fallacy as fact. Read blogs, newspaper articles, Internet forums – a startling number of people have bought this lie hook line and sinker.

I’m sure most would argue that even if the science is flawed, certainly it’s a good idea for us all to take it a little bit easier on the planet and with that I would most certainly agree. However, not only is Al Gore and company all wrong on the cause of global climate change (or perhaps even the very existence of global climate change) but their proposed solution could potentially be harmful to the environment.

The problem is that Al Gore and others have somehow, absent virtually any credible scientific evidence whatsoever, latched onto the idea that man-made CO2 (carbon dioxide) is the single biggest threat to environment. Credible research actually shows quite the opposite, it may in fact be true that additional carbon dioxide in the environment is beneficial to the Earth’s entire ecosystem stimulating the growth of additional plant and animal life. Carbon dioxide is not a noxious chemical but rather a relatively benign compound that is either used or released through virtually any organic process. Humans and animals breathe in oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide, plants ingest carbon dioxide and expel oxygen and yes carbon dioxide is a bi-product of burning fossil fuels.

Regardless of the facts stated above, man-made carbon dioxide is actually not even a significant percentage of the carbon dioxide found within the Earth’s atmosphere.

I don’t want to reinvent the wheel and I will link to all the material that supports what I’m saying, as if it’s not bad enough that Al Gore is propagating a complete and total lie, his proposed solution to a non-existent problem is potentially harmful to the environment.

Please don’t misunderstand, I don’t dispute that there aren’t many things humans do that are very detrimental to the Earth’s environment, however there is NO credible scientific data to suggest that excessive release of CO2 into the environment is one of them.

If you want to help the environment focus on doing something that actually helps the environment rather attempting to solve a problem that may or may not exist by doing something that will not help (and might hurt) the situation.

Don’t take my word for it, here’s 17,200+ scientists (and counting) that agree there is no element of truth to Gore's film:

Here is the letter sent on behalf of the petition signers requesting that our government not sign the Kyoto treaty to reduce C02 emissions because it will not help anything and in fact may be detrimental to the environment and to developing nations:

Here is supporting peer-reviewed­ research:

Here are a few articles from the Canada Free Press shooting down all the Global Warming hype:

Don’t be another jackass out there campaigning for a pointless solution to a problem that has little to no hard scientific evidence suggesting it even exists. If you want to be an activist step one is finding a problem that actually exists and step two is finding a solution that is not only realistic but will actually resolve the problem. Al Gore and friends probably failed at step one and certainly failed at step 2.

Even if reducing CO2 emissions is not detrimental to the environment it is unlikely to do anything beneficial either. Mandating reduction of CO2 emissions will most certainly be harmful economically, especially to developing nations that cannot afford or do not otherwise have access to alternative technologies. How Ironic, Al Gore, liberals and all the other Hollywood idiots riding the global warming bandwagon are usually the same bleeding hearts lecturing us on how we need to help developing nations. Not only that but other dishonest frauds are taking advantage of the general public's belief in this carbon dioxide disaster myth to get rich by selling “carbon-credits.” Check it out. http://www.terrapass.com/.

Don’t be a sucker – next time some jerkoff celebrity, former politician or other talking head tries to sell you something demand some hard scientific evidence.

Answer 4

From what I have just read in the 17 answers before me that the youth of our country need better education in politics.

I feel that the technology today...cell phones ...blackberries ...iPods...and on and on that they are talking more than they are listening.

They are not talking about the country they are talking about themselves... it is almost like a mob mentality.

"If Joe says so it must be true!" "And yeah even Ralph agrees" That cinches it for sure!"

Answer 5

The guy is as charming as a bedpost. He is extremely bright... and boring. Hate him or not, he's found a worthwhile niche. I think he'll do a whole lot more good for you, me, and everyone else on the planet by sticking with the global warming issue. He's gained my respect since he lost the election.

Answer 6

Who?
Wasn't that guy you mention a mathetician in the 9th Century AD?

Answer 7

He is childish. No one wants to listen to his rants and raves and what does he do, everything short of stomping his feet.

Well Ford Perfect...I can say more than one thing bad about Gore. How about being a hypocrite for one thing. Tries to stir the nation into an uproar by magnifying the issue, and stands to profit from his so called "carbon credit" scam.

Answer 8

Al Gore represents everything we do not have in the white house now:

An enviromentalist
Intelligence
A problem solver
A diplomat
Positive Popularity
Class
Charm
Confidentiality
No big oil ideals of greatness
& No legal entanglements
And if he ran in 2008--i'd kick Hillary to the curb and give him my vote!

Answer 9

No. I just do not agree with his politics and his dishonesty and hypocrisy. I do not hate him.

Answer 10

He's just another Socialist/Communist Democrat who is stuck on stupid. Just like Hillary Clinton, Kennedy, Schumer, Pelosi, and the rest of the brain dead individuals in the Democratic party.
