Al Gore: Climate-Change Fight Like Battle Against Nazis
Tuesday, July 07, 2009
Al Gore on Tuesday compared the battle against climate change with the struggle against the Nazis.
The former vice president said the world lacked the political will to act and invoked the spirit of Winston Churchill by encouraging leaders to unite their nations to fight climate change.
He also accused politicians around the world of exploiting ignorance about the dangers of global warming to avoid difficult decisions.
Speaking at Britain's Oxford University at the Smith School World Forum on Enterprise and the Environment, sponsored by the Times of London, Gore said, "Winston Churchill aroused this nation in heroic fashion to save civilization in World War II."
He added, "We have everything we need except political will, but political will is a renewable resource."
Gore admitted that it was difficult to persuade the public that the threat from climate change was as urgent as the threat from Nazi Germany.

If anyone or anything is a Nazi it is him. He is a big hypocrite. He is only spouting off about this crap because he has so much to gain from it.

Al Gore is a clown and a profiteer. Anyone who gives him any credibility is a fool.
A Republic, if you can keep it.

Let's see... if you replace the idea of an evil totalitarian regime with the evil resource gobbling, profit-only motivated corporate elite that buys off our politicians and every right of democracy that we tend to hold in high esteem here at PAFOA, in order to continue the quest for an even richer bottom line at the expense of jobs, the environment or any sense of responsibility except to share holders.... HE'S RIGHT!
Wasn't much political will to fight totalitarian world dominination then either... though for different reasons.

You have no idea how long i've waited to use this picture..
Regardless of my strong beliefs in Environmental protection (which has nothing to do with "Global Warming") I write this small letter to Mr Gore.
Dear Mr Gore,
Please shut the hell up.. You're making us all look like idiots and making it 10 times harder to get the job done.
Thank you.Last edited by Morel42; July 7th, 2009 at 03:11 PM.

Does this mean that Al Gore just Godwinned the Climate Change/Global Warming debate?

Al Gore the guy who still uses regular light bulbs and 30 times as much electricity in his mansion than the average American but he is green because he buys himself carbon credits - from his own company.
Yeah...douchebag."If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom ... go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels nor arms. May your chains set lightly upon you and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." Samuel Adams
