Gore Personally Trains 1,000 Mind-Numbed Robots To Spread Disinformation
2007-01-09
Hundreds of volunteers from across the country have flocked to Nashville this fall and winter and more are here today as part of a grass-roots training effort to spread the word on global warming.

They are taking part in Al Gore's The Climate Project, which mushroomed from his documentary, An Inconvenient Truth.

The goal had been to train 1,000 "presenters" to show slides of melting glaciers and charts of climbing temperatures, but many more have wanted in.

Those selected to gather at the Hilton Nashville Downtown last week included teachers, doctors, a meteorologist, ministers, Wal-Mart employees, actress Cameron Diaz, architects, retirees, veterans and financiers.

#16  What's this global warming thing again? Anchorage, AK was -11F today, with Alaska interior temperatures ranging from -30F to -56F. You guys are getting all the warming, leave some for us.

#15  his used to be controversial, but the science is in and it's overwhelming.

If you're an environmental lefty, a bought-and-paid-for "scholar", or simply a moonbat.

#9  I have to wonder how much these schmucks paid for this "grass-roots" training opportunity.

It's the cynic in me.

#8  As an aside...much ado has been made of the ice shelf that cracked off northern Ellesmere Island. What Gore and his Penguins fail disclose is that in the midst of the "global warming", winters at Ellesmere Island are about 15°C colder and summers 11C warmer than the Early Pliocene winters/summers. There are fossilized remains (flora and fauna) that lived in the region that indicate the climate was about like Labrador.

#6  The band of atmosphere around the Earth is thickening as coal and other fossil fuels are burned, trapping heat, he said.

If that's what he said, he's as much a moron as I thought. Hell, not even the scientists he claims have "settled" the matter say that.

#4  " I am trying to comprehend anyone with a degree in the physical sciences could listen to that claptrap unless it is for a good laugh."

Or unless they are receiving public sector or "nonprofit" funding to "study the problem".

The so-called scientists who are into this stuff are more interested in income stream than information stream. Follow the money.

#3  Global warming had dropped off the country's radar screen after being an issue in the 1970s and 1980s, she said.

But back then it went by the name "global cooling" aka "the impending ice age", aka "famine by 1980".

#1  Must mean the picture that was accused of being a pscripted/shopped "globe in a studio" fake intended to make Americans believe Americans made it into space + Moon. AMERICAN NEVER WENT INTO SPACE NOR LANDED ON THE MOON, AND THE EARTH IS FLAT, D ***ng it. ERGO THE "PHOTO FAKE" GIVES GLOBAL WARMING ITS UNDENIABLE CREDIBILITY.
