From Bush’s WH “editing’ scientific papers, through the oil industry’s finanacing psuedo-scientific studies and disinformation, the deny and demean campaign has been on full blast.

The administration has swallowed hard and is finally referring to ‘climate change’ It will probably be another 10 years before they manage to get their lips around ‘global warming’.
By then, as individual states, entreprenerus and other countries surge ahead to deal with the matter, no one will care what they’re yelling about. They’ll eventually be just a foot note in history, like those outraged when the earth turned out not be flat or the sun turned out to be the center of the universe.

From the start, this has never been about science with these folks. It’s been about money and power and paranoia about anything new.

Now, it would be wise to have a reasonable discussion about the economics involved as well as best methods and techniques. But ‘reasonable discussion’ is not possible when name-calling and character assasination are so much preferred.

It’s up to these folks to choose just how low they want to sink and how ridiculous they want to reveal themselves to be while the world marches on without them. and GORE IS FETED AROUND THE GLOBE.
It’s been quite a pattern for America to reject creative people and innovators. They’re welcomed only when there’s an immediate profit to be made off of them. This fits right in with the pattern.

How screwed up is our electorate

He is taken seriously and even worshipped as a rock star and philosopher-statesman (the true derangement). No wonder his stuff sells so well.

Thank God for lefty celebs who can represent the US abroad without a cloud of shame over them.

Trying to steal an election after losing it was shameful, as has been the celebrity activism.

You can’t truthfully say Gore fits your description.

The Nobel Peace Price PC-joke organization is shameful, too, incidentally.

And as someone just mentioned with a wry laugh as we were talking about creating a modern Chinook “Guns-a-Go-Go”: “Heh, heh. Vietnam was the first nation to experience warmer climate.” (Fwooffff!)

The US happily pollutes the atmopshere while obstructing efforts to mitigate the damage.

Luckily,tthere are righties coming on board, having finally pulled their heads from the sand.

Meanwhile, from a relevent quote he made:

“They go on in strange paradox, decided only to be undecided, resolved to be irresolute, adamant for drift, solid for fluidity, all powerful to be impotent.”

How ironic to say that now, as it is so true about those denying the threats presented by Iran!
