Al Gore and the Truth, or Lack of It

For all of you who cry "foul" whenever someone brings up the subject of liberal media bias, I would like to bring up a couple of scenarios.
Now suppose Dick Cheney was the one who made the movie "An Inconvenient Truth" making dire predictions about icebergs melting and polar bears becoming extinct and the planet warming to the extent that certain areas would be unable to support agriculture in a few short decades, New York being under water and all manner of dire, unfounded prophecies.

And let's just suppose that Cheney tried to sell us carbon credits to offset our excessive use of energy when his own carbon footprint was wide enough to operate a small town, while he flies around on a private jet and rides in chauffer driven cars while telling the rest of us we should all but revert to the horse and buggy days. Oh, and by the way, the horses are not allowed to emit flatulence.

And suppose we had a winter of record low temperatures and the biggest snowfalls on record.

Now just what do you think the New York Times would be saying about Cheney's global warming theory.

And by the way where is Al Gore? Shouldn't this be the time when him and his band of green fanatics and scientists come out from under their rocks and tell us what's happening?

If there really is anything at all to the global warming hoax, wouldn't now be the time to explain to us peons what all this cold and white stuff is?
Now we're reading that the record cold and snowfall is being caused by none other than global warming.

I don't claim to be a genius but will somebody please explain to me how the warming of the Earth causes cold weather?

If you will look back at the history of the global warming fanatics you will find that since the early 1900s they have vacillated between global warming and global ice ages.

Now you can't have it both ways. Either the Earth is going to burn up or it is going to freeze over, but these people go back and forth using whichever tactic they can scare the most people with.

People let's be rational, there are many diverse, clear and present catastrophic dangers to Planet Earth but global warming is not one of them any more than global freezing is.

The global warming hoax is nothing more than an international effort to control every facet of human life on Planet Earth.
I'm a lot more worried about the nuclear bomb Iran is developing.

I'm much more anxious about having an Attorney General dumb enough to try Islamic terrorists in New York City.

I'm much more worried about the insupportable national debt Obama and the spend-drunk Congress are running up.

I'm more worried about how an early withdrawal from Iraq and Afghanistan will play out.

I'm much more concerned about the terrorist training camps right here in the homeland.

I am more worried about a Director of Homeland Security who thinks she's dealing with "man caused disasters".

I'm a lot more concerned about the well-equipped army the drug cartels are assembling in Mexico.

America if you're going to worry about something, pick something worthy of your anxiety and leave Al Gore and his band of alarmists to freeze or roast or whatever they're doing this week.

Even if common citizens would abide by all the rules laid down by crooks who are trying to force the rigid global warming lifestyle on us, the elite -like Al Gore- would still not give up their private airplanes, their limousines and the lavish and energy gobbling lifestyles they live.
This is a "Do as I say, not as I do" philosophy" and is nothing more than a planetary power grab.

It's a bunch of junk, folks. Don't give an inch.

What do you think?

Pray for our troops, and for our country.

God Bless America
