Another little expose of our friend Al Gore, the climate expert. holding forth....
Quote:
Drowning Polar Bear Award for Promoting Gore’s Inconvenient "Truth"
Katie Couric: "In this movie, at different turns you’re funny, vulnerable, disarming, self-effacing, and someone said after watching it, quote, ‘If only he was like this before, maybe things would’ve turned out differently in 2000.’"
Al Gore: "Well, I benefit from low expectations...."
Couric: "What do you see happening in say 15 to 20 years or even 50 years if nothing changes?"
Gore: "...Sea-level increases of 20 feet or more worldwide. Of course, Florida and Louisiana and Texas are particularly vulnerable. The San Francisco Bay area, Manila. And we have seen the impact of a couple hundred thousand refugees from an environmental crisis. [Footage of Hurricane Katrina] Imagine 100 million or 200 million."
Couric: "Even Manhattan would be in deep water, right?"
Gore: "Yes, in fact the World Trade Center Memorial site would be underwater....Unfortunately, Mother Nature is weighing in very powerfully and very loudly."

I'm astounded that anyone would believe this inexpert charlatan who is spouting such alarmist falsehoods? Pooey, you claim familiarity with scientific studies in global warming, have you seen sucha report or study that says sea levels will rise 20 feet in 20 to 50 years?


Thus we play the fools with the time, and the spirits of the wise sit in the clouds and mock us.
