GOP Rep. Dana Rohrabacher Calls Liberal Messiah Al Gore “Looney Tunes”…

I’m sorry, I know this is breaking my “no more Al Gore posts for the day” pledge, but I didn’t anticipate the news cycle would come to a grinding halt. It’s like pulling teeth trying to find something worth posting.

(Politico) — Al Gore’s criticism of President Barack Obama’s leadership on global warming has one congressional Republican saying it might help the president improve his image among critics on the right.

“That’s got to be a plus for Obama, that a Looney Tune like Al Gore — and he is Looney Tunes on the issue of global warming — is not satisfied with that,” said Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Calif.). “I’d be surprised if Obama didn’t call him up [and say], ‘Please attack me so I’ll look more rational.’”

But while some Democrats said they’d like to more action on global warming, they said political hurdles Obama’s up against are a large part of the problem.

“That’s good for Al Gore to keep on pushing all of us on this,” said Senate Environment and Public Works Committee Chairwoman Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), adding that she hadn’t read the former vice president’s 7,000-word Rolling Stone essay.

“There’s no question the president hasn’t changed an inch on this. We also know that he doesn’t have a prayer of getting through the kind of bill we all think is necessary,” she said. “While I agree that we all want to see more, I think the president, given the realities here of people who are in denial, he is doing a lot from the executive branch.”

In Rolling Stone, Gore criticized Obama for not taking the case for action on climate change to the American people.

    Al Gore does have a certain resemblance to Porky Pig.

    But, Porky looks far more intelligent and lacks that crazy gleam in the eye that suggests he might mistake a massage therapist for a hooker.

    Al Gore and Rolling Stone. Pure journalism excellence. Next stop, Tiger Beat magazine.

    Hey ZIP, if its any consolation, a slow news cycle means the Obama wrecking ball is momentarily stuck. This is a good thing.

    The Crazed Sex Poodle AL does look a bit like Porky Pig as of late. :o

    Al just needs to unload some of those carbon credits he owns because the truth is nearing the surface more and more each day.
    If all goes well these bogus credits for nothing more than an imaginary puff of smoke will be worthless in a few years as more and more come to realize its just a big scam to market a bunch of crap that brings our lifestyles towards environmentalism, which, is simply, … repackaged Marxism.
    Every ones getting busted left and right, IPCC, UN, GE, etc for acknowledging among themselves the fear mongering must be kept at a certain level or no ones gonna buy this crap anymore.
    Its like the guy at the used car lot rushing you,”I’ve got another buyer so if you want it get it now before he gives me anything down”

    Yeah, ya know what, since your sale is so sure, you dont need me…bye

    I’m still on Rohrabacher’s mailing list. A good man, and should have been noticed and promoted for higher office a long time ago. Instead, we looked to John McCain :(
