He May be Right
Thursday, Canada attempted to appease the wacko fringe granola eaters by releasing a plan to reduce greenhouse emissions. Apparently the only approved plans have to come from out of touch with reality leftistas. Saturday Al Gore called Canada’s environmental cleanup plan a fraud. He may be right. If anyone knows about environmental fraud, it’s Al Gore.
First he ascends to the American vice-presidency largely on the coattails of his book “Earth in the Balance.” It could not have been on the basis of his senatorial career. He basically did nothing other than get his wife lots of face time on TV denouncing explicit lyrics on music cd’s. Although their cause was noble, they had no ability to restrict free speech and music today is as lurid as ever.
I don’t think that he was elected as Clinton’s VP based on his intellect. We can all recall that as the Clinton bus tour went to Monticello, Gore famously asked who the statuary in the rotunda represented. Any school child would have been able to tell him that it was George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and James Madison. If he wasn’t sure, he could have looked at the pictures on his daddy’s money.
Gore’s book was basically a manifesto of his environmental beliefs. It had little to no basis in fact and many scientists came out to say that it misstated facts and made assertions that could not be supported by science. Nevertheless, Bill Clinton chose him as his running mate. Fortunately for Gore, Clinton was a whole lot more electable than he was.
Then after Gore failed in his only bid for the presidency on his own, he produced a video that he called a documentary that has had the leftwing base drooling ever since it came out. Gore has ridden this latest scientific fiasco again to the forefront as the media darling of environmental activism. Unfortunately, his movie is less factual than his book. It is based on assertions and misstatements of fact that has caused a multitude of real scientists to publicly denounce it. Still, Gore is in the paper almost daily as the messiah of global warming.
Yet Mr. Gore is a fraud. He calls for the removal of fossil fuel based vehicles yet he drives a luxury SUV. He flies in a private jet around the world to promote his video. Most famously of all, Gore racks up a whopping $30,000 a year electric and gas bill as he tells others to stop wasting energy. The response from Gore was that his bill was offset through investment in a company that plants trees to absorb the carbon in the atmosphere and researches the use of methane gas for fuel. I think that Gore is full of smelly gas. This could be a lucrative business. Perhaps we could start a company to sell carbon offsets and use the proceeds for Artic Power, a group lobbying to drill in the Artic National Wildlife Refuge.
When Al Gore calls Canada’s plan a fraud, he knows what he’s talking about. He’s not an environmental scientist but he’s been living and perpetuating a fraud on the people of North America for years.
