Friendly Fire: Goracle Blasts Obama For Not Taking “Bold Action” On Global Warming…

I know, way too much Al Gore on this site over the last 24 hours. Last one, I promise.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Vice President Al Gore is going where few environmentalists — and fellow Democrats — have gone before: criticizing President Barack Obama’s record on global warming.

In a 7,000-word essay for Rolling Stone magazine that will be published Friday, Gore says Obama has failed to stand up for “bold action” on global warming and has made little progress on the problem since the days of Republican President George W. Bush. Bush infuriated environmentalists for resisting mandatory controls on the pollution blamed for climate change, despite overwhelming scientific evidence that the burning of fossil fuels is responsible.

While Gore credits Obama’s political appointees with making hundreds of changes that have helped move the country “forward slightly” on the climate issue, and acknowledges Obama has been dealing with many other problems, he says the president “has simply not made the case for action.”

“President Obama has never presented to the American people the magnitude of the climate crisis,” Gore says. “He has not defended the science against the ongoing withering and dishonest attacks. Nor has he provided a presidential venue for the scientific community . . . to bring the reality of the science before the public.”

    Uh-oh, in the last week Hussein has thrown out crumbs to gays, the anti war code stinko contingent, and Hispanics. Watch out, the lefturd base must be fed.

    Zipper Family don’t make promises on the high priestess of GW Al Gore.

    I think we need to keep an eye on this opportunist and fraud along with all carbon trading disciples.

    Clinton being the narcissist that he is, kept Al around because Bubba looked good compared to that buffoon.

    I often thank God for not letting The Goracle man/bear/pig be our president! I now wonder why this idiot still thinks he is relative? Well actually he never was relative to anything in the first place. :roll: Something is up with the dumb sonofabitch spouting this shit right now. I think we better watch our backsides or bin Ubama is gonna stick it to us on this ficticious global warming issue. :mad:

    I also wonder, exactly how many $$$$millions has this asswipe/jackass/sonofabitch Gore made off of this global warming hoax? :mad:

    This is an excerpt from the book, “The World Turned Upside Down” by, Melanie Phillips:

    Mike Hulme, a professor in the school of environmental sciences at the University of East Anglica, founding director of the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, and a guru of manmade global warming theory. In 2007, Hulme confided to the Guardian:

    Philosophers and practitioners of science have identified this particular mode of scientific activity as one that occurs where the stakes are high, uncertainties large and decisions urgent, and where values are embedded in the way science is done and spoken. It has been labelled “post normal” science….The danger of “normal” reading of science is that it assumes that science can first find the truth, then speak the truth to power, and that truth based policy will then follow….Self-evidently dangerous climate change will not emerge from a normal scientific process of truth seeking, although science will gain some insights into the question of it recognizes the socially contingent dimension of a post-normal science. But to proffer such insights, scientists-and politicians-must trade (normal) truth for influence. If scientists want to remain listened to, to bear influence on policy, they must recognize the limits of their truth seeking and reveal fully the values and beliefs they bring to their scientific activity….Climate change is much too important to be left to scientists-least of all the normal ones.

    The EPA shutting down power plants all over the country is not “bold” enough for Al Gorleone? Maybe he wants to start depopluating or starving out the Other People.

    Why isn’t Gore sharing a cell with Bernie Madoff? Both are scam artists, although Bernie did a lot less damage.
    As far as that goes, why isn’t obama in there with them?

    We need a policy to retire ALL FORMS OF CARBON FUELS as soon as possible. There are four states burning today, one or two of them setting new records, spewing Carbon-Dioxide gas as a burn product, which is part of the self-acceleration mechanism of Global Warming. Climate change dehydrates continental interiors, which dessicates interior air, which contributes to wildfires, which adds to the speed of Global Warming.

    Methane gas (Natural Gas) is not cleaner, as unburned molecules regularly go out the flue. Each molecule of methane in the upper atmosphere destroys ozone thereby producing 25 times the global warming effect of one molecule of CO2. All the methane which does burn becomes CO2.

    We have seven times more fossil fuels needed to kill the Earth. We are not running out of fuels — we are running out of environment which supports higher life.

    The rooftops of American homes (100 million family residences x 2000 sq.ft. average floorplan) is 10% more than enough space to generate all the electrical production required presently to power the national grid. This is assuming low-efficiency 12 watts per sq.ft. polysilicon cheap photovoltaic panels with zero technical breakthroughs required.

    A smartgrid with plug-in BEV vehicles (like the Chevy Volt) will store 4 times the daily PV production, buying and selling electrons than is needed daily by America by the power grid. Hydrogen fuel cells of a 60 kW car will power 60 homes for every hour that it has fuel.

    Moving electrons is expensive — it costs $1 megabuck per mile for transmission lines for the power grid, but trucks can move PV silicon wafers from the windfields in the Dakotas to where the power is needed very economically. Turning wind into PV silicon makes more sense than pumping electrons. There’s no shortage of wind or PV in that scenario, and no shortage of storage with 100,000,000 American cars and light trucks storing 20 kW each.

    “It’s “global warming”, it’s settled science! No, wait- It’s “climate change”. No, wait again – Now it’s “severe weather events”. I’m sure this time. For now. Liaan- “It dessicates interior air (takes moisture away), which contributes to wildfires..” Really? What about all your alarmist friends saying that the “record” flooding is from GW? Better call eGore and get your story straight. Liaan, again- “four states burning today, one or two setting records…” Liaan, you can’t be this stupid, can you? Our record for wildfires goes back, like most climate records, only about 150 years. The earth is 4 billion years old. As i’ve said before, what do you think the chances are that there were larger fires (or warmer weather, or larger floods, or ect., ect) sometime back in that 4 billion years? Pretty good, huh? Anybody who says “this is a record” about anything to do with climate should have his tinfoil hat taken off. You just don’t know.
