Mr. Gore will issue an indictment of the Bush administrationâs inaction on global warming, linking the issue to U.S. national security. He will show that global warming is happening right now, and yet the President is choosing to help his coal- and oil-company supporters rather than advance modern technologies that can affordably solve this critical problem.
Yeah, like that windfarm off Cape Cod Bush squashed. Oh, wait, that was Ted Kennedy and the other libs who didnât want their views of the ocean spoiled.
The speech will also explore the administrationâs deliberate attempts to mislead the public as it attacks basic environmental laws and protection. This is a free event, but attendance is open only to members of MoveOn.org and Environment2004 who have RSVPâd, and to credentialed journalists.
Guess it all depends on your definition of "open". Itâs another AlGore moment.
