Default Gore Losing the War on Global Warming

Thank heavens! Sanity is coming back.

Gore Losing the War: 59% Don't Believe Man Is Warming the Planet


By Noel Sheppard
January 19, 2009 - 13:28 ET


He won an Oscar and a Nobel Peace Prize, but a recent poll suggests the Global Warmingist-in-Chief Al Gore is losing his propaganda war to convince Americans carbon dioxide is destroying the planet.

In fact, the number of people who believe that long-term planetary trends are responsible for the relatively small increase in temperatures in recent decades rose ten percent since last April while those viewing it as a man-made problem has decreased by six percent.

Talk about your inconvenient truths!
This has got to be bad news for a man that has bet his reputation as well as his very fortune on people buying into his junk science. As reported by Rasmussen Reports Monday:
Forty-four percent (44%) of U.S. voters now say long-term planetary trends are the cause of global warming, compared to 41% who blame it on human activity.
Seven percent (7%) attribute global warming to some other reason, and nine percent (9%) are unsure in a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. [...]
In April of last year, 47% of Americans blamed human activity versus 34% who viewed long-term planetary trends as the culprit. But the numbers have been moving in the direction of planetary trends since then.
On the eve of the inauguration of a president that has bought this nonsense hook, line, and sinker, we can only hope Congress is paying attention to how the electorate feels about this issue.

Congratulations.

If any of that is true, the USA can now truly claim to be the Most Ignorant Nation Earth.

GW exists, it is just natural, not necessarily man made. Man is contributing to it, especially in recent years I believe because there are more people and more energy is being used. We are more wasteful. GW is just a natural thing, the earth has been slowly heating up for many years, and in recent years man has accelerated this process.

Global Warming: The "perfect" con job.

Weather getting warmer? It's global warming.
Weather getting cooler? It's global warming.

Sun's heating up? Nope...not a cause. Cow farts....that's a cause.

Antarctic ice growing exponentially? Uh...sweep it under the rug please...keep looking at that dopey picture of the polar bears on the floating ice. Nevermind that the picture was taken in the summer. Nevermind at all.

World's NUMBER ONE climatologist on a campaign against the global warming swindle? Screw him! We've got thousands of completely unknown, un-named "scientists" to back it up. Please don't bother to notice that two-thirds of our "scientists" aren't of the "climatology" kind...just shut up, and keep drinking your kool aid.


This whole thing is about power, money, and control. SOMEONE'S getting filthy rich off this "perfect" swindle. Why don't the liberals demonize them? Why is "Chicken Little" Gore immune to criticism? He, of the zinc mine, and home that draws more electricity than a city block.

I saw that moron, Bono on TV last night, prancing around Lincoln's Memorial, crowing about Obama (golden calf, anyone?). How much carbon did he use up, getting here? I mean....it's not like he's American or anything.

Hypocrites and suckers. That's what our great-grandchildren will read about, when they study the "Great Global Warming Swindle," in their government schools.

No Mak. AGW is a very real thing. There are all sorts of things that cause changes in climate, but the main driver of the observed warming of recent decade is the greenhouse effect of anthropogenic emissions.

So, what's the difference between today, and all the other ice ages (and thaws), from past? Were those all just random events?

Man-made carbon emissions make up less than 2% of all greenhouse gas emissions. What's the #1 CO² emission? Decomposing vegetation. How many carbon credits does Mother Earth owe, for all that decomposing vegetation? What's "Chicken Little" gonna do to stop it? More Earth Day concerts, where superstars can fly their private jets, and drive their Cadillac Escalades to?

Again...this is the biggest swindle in history. Congratulations on being one of the "swindled."

Is it Global Warming or Global Cooling this time? He keeps changing the story, it's hard to keep up.

I believe the Earth has its natural cycles with cooling and warming sessions. Everything has contributed to it. Hell, cows farting contributes to it. Man has, but not at the level some fanatics believe. A volcano in Hawaii spews more toxin than man ever has.

Wow!!!!

What a remarkable post!!!

How on earth did you cram so much sheer stupidity, ignorance and misinformation into such a small space - and still find time to slag off at Bono in the same breath!


And those wonderful little fantasies like:
The sun's heating up?
"The World's NUMBER ONE climatologist on a campaign against the global warming swindle?"!!!!
all beautifully tossed of without a scrap of evidence for support!

A masterful performance Sir! I salute you.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (you know, the dudes that won the Nobel Prize) have used that title for over 20 years. You find that hard to keep up with? No wonder you seem to have trouble understanding this subject.

And what causes these " cycles with cooling and warming sessions."?
Any ideas? Or are you just telling us "I really don't understand - but I post something anyway"?

And what do " some fanatics believe"? Why don't you tell us.
Do you mean like the bloke above who told us:
The sun's heating up? Fanatics like that?

or "The World's NUMBER ONE climatologist on a campaign against the global warming swindle?"!!!!

Fanatics like that?

What do "fanatics" believe?

Really?!?! Which volcano is this? What is its name? When did this happen? What are these toxins? Does this relate in any way to anthropogenic CO2 emissions - or did you just make it up because you wanted to make a contribution to a subject you simply don't understand?

Tell us more about this volcano please.
