Did Al Gore champion the manmade Global Warming hoax because he was sore over losing thePresidential Election?

"As Steven Guilbeault of Greenpeace explained, "global warming can mean colder, it can mean drier, it can mean wetter." No set of facts can disprove the environmentalists' secular religion. In 2004, former vice president Al Gore gave a speech on global warming in New York City on the coldest day of the year. Warm trends prove global warming. Cold trends also prove global warming. This is the philosophy of a madman." - Ann Coulter

    Twenty years ago, the scientists were saying we were facing a new Ice Age. Thirty years ago, the scientists were saying that California was going to slip into the Pacific Ocean. Last year the Scientists were saying that Global Warming was going to cause the worst hurricane season in history. Im not a scientist, but from what ive seen in the scientists predictions, im not going to listen to a has-been Al Gore.

    Sure. Take that nut Ann Coulter's word for it. Al Gore could find an easier way of getting even if he wanted to do so. He's been living out of a suitcase going all over the world to warn people about a very real danger. He's given his lecture over a thousand times and is now training others to do the same thing. He really is the voice of reason. People like you turn a deaf ear and chalk it up to his being a sore loser. I guess that's how you salve your conscience when you fill up that big ol' SUV.

    Al Gore, when he lost the election, just found another way of trying to be useful to the human race. What are you doing?

    I just read an article on BBC that said that we are currently in a stagnant state of warming, contrary to what was projected - and they don't know why. It could be due to the fact that the earth is in a part of its rotation cycle that orbits slightly further away from the sun - I like to thing that will balance the 'warming' situation. there is no question that CO2 and other greenhouse gases are filling are atmosphere at a concerning rate. tied with deforestation, developing world industrialization etc. I would say humans are not doing any favours for mother earth, but mother earth doesn't care about humans.

    Global warming is a sad reality and has even been acknowledged by many arch conservatives as well as virtually the entire scientific community. Global warming does not mean that every day is warmer than the last or that there will not be extremely cold days as well. It is a long-term process of, pardon the expression, evolution, which has already caused shrinkage of the polar ice caps and mountainous glacial areas. Al Gore is doing us all a great service by pointing this out in a simple, coherant and articulate manner designed to be understood even by people such as Ann Coulter.

    Global Warming is not a hoax but Al Gore is an idiot jackass. But the only reason he is talking so much about it is that he wants to stay in the limelight and that's the only way he can.

    Al Gore hasn't had a thought of his own in years. He's an idiot who takes BS from others and spews it out then takes credit for it.

    That, and stoned on Paragoric. Fat Albert, The 300-Pound Spartan, thinks that this is just going to catapult him into the White House. That's going to take a mighty big catapult to heave that much lard.

    Global warming is just like any other issue championed by Democrats--a means to remain in power. By keeping a lock on this issue, deriding anyone who disagrees with them as someone who hates the environment, they appeal to the emotions and keep the base pacified. It's interesting how supposedly "open-minded" liberals who profess to be willing to hear both sides of the issue immediately dismiss any other theory as propaganda, without even looking at it. Having looked at both sides myself, I cannot see how anyone could be completely convinced that global warming is man-made.

    your message of a copy-paste and selected parts is an EXTREME DISTORTION OF AN ALREADY TOO SIMPLIFIED SCIENCE FOR THE PUBLIC.

    Did you study some thermodynamics, climatology, chemistry or others to speak about global warming ? NO ? Then SHUT UP

    I also don´t tell my surgeon how he has to do his job !!!
