Algore Brings His Imagination To Congress
But Gore faced a more skeptical reception than the warm embrace he received from Hollywood as Republicans questioned the science behind his testimony.
"You're not just off a little, you're totally wrong," said Texas Rep. Joe Barton, the leading Republican on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, as he challenged Gore's conclusion that carbon dioxide emissions cause rising global temperatures. Barton and Gore's exchange grew testy at one point—Barton demanding that Gore get to the point and Gore responding that he would like time to answer without being interrupted.
"Global warming science is uneven and evolving," Barton said.
I cannot tell you how happy I was when I read Rep. Barton's statement. It seems like common sense has all but disappeared in the pursuit of the latest fad. It seems odd that where ever Algore goes to hype his propaganda, there's record cold and snowstorms. I'm hoping that Washington D.C. will be less favorable place for his nonsense than Hollywood.
WASHINGTON, DC – Former Vice President Al Gore refused to take a “Personal Energy Ethics Pledge” today to consume no more energy than the average American household. The pledge was presented to Gore by Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), Ranking Member of the Environment and Public Works Committee, during today’s global warming hearing.
Senator Inhofe showed Gore a film frame from “An Inconvenient Truth” where it asks viewers: “Are you ready to change the way you live?”
I think this speaks for itself. Algore wants to go around telling other people how they should live and he has made little changes. Including flying from country to country, state to state in his pursuit of fame and having a house that uses 20x more electricity than an average homeowner. He's just like any other Democrat, the rules don't apply to him.
For those of you who would like to visit Algore's website, it's www.algore.com. And no, I didn't make it up. I thought it was pretty funny that it's spelled that way.
