#1 Gore showed computer-generated projections of ocean water rushing in to submerge the San Francisco Bay Area...

If smoking could cause that to happen, everybody here would be lighting up...

#3 Al Gore is the greatest threat to my sanity.

Along with the nazi penguans.

(New York Observer) - In suit pants too short and black boots too polished, Al Gore stepped haltingly to the podium of the Sheraton New York on Thursday afternoon and took credit for helping to solicit an enormous donation to fight global warming. Mr. Clinton patted him on the back and joked, Als the enforcer. Mr. Gore ignored the whiff of condescension as his puffy, aquiline face beamed in the direction of the adulation.

Donks, both of them.

#5 Al, cut it out. Okay? You can't use the weather as your political platform. M'kay?

#6 Dear God... there really, truly is a Moronic Convergence. Shut up, Al. Stuff a sock in it.

#9 And this man came within just a few votes of being our president. I think even the democrats have to think they dodged the bullet on this one.

#10 So if all smokers switch to lites, it should be OK for me to continue to drive an SUV. If too many smokers quit or switch to snuff are we in danger of causing an ice-age? If this is true, then Native Americans are actually the ones who screwed up the enviroment. I think Al should take a look at the warming impact of Easy Bak ovens. I might alter my X-mas list based on his scientific findings.

#11 Fuel load of 1 Gulfstream 5 jet to fly Al Gore: 15,966 kg

Tobbaco in 1 cigarette (100's): 0.90 gram.

Flying Al Gore to 1 speech = 17,740,000 cigarettes smoked. (OK, actually it's even more since kerosene is more carbon dense than tobacco.)

The hypocrisy: Priceless.
