CHICAGO, August 31, 2011—Al Gore invented the internet. He and Tipper were the basis for Erich Segal's book, Love Story. He grew up and worked in tobacco fields, he was pro-life before he was pro choice, and his mother sang him to sleep as an infant with “Look for the Union Label.”
Now, he is creating more lies, the big lie, the evil formula: Call people indefensible names so they shut up.
Al Gore wants to change the conversation about Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming. Critics and skeptics will be equated with racists. The are morally corrupt. Criticism of CAGW will not be voiced in polite company.
“My generation asked old people, ‘Explain to me again why it is okay to discriminate against people because their skin color is different?’ And when they couldn’t really answer that question with integrity, the change really started.” (Daily Caller)
No one discriminates against CAGW proponents. In spite of the controversy surrounding the science, especially the "catastrophic anthropogenic" part, CAGW proponents are welcomed into every university faculty, the pages of every major publication, and Washington's halls of power. That is not discrimination. No one is denied a job or fired because of their beliefs (at least not if their beliefs match Al Gore's). Job applications don't ask about CAGW, and no one has been lynched for claiming belief in it.
“...but there came a time when racist comments would come up in the course of the conversation and in years past they were just natural. Then there came a time when people would say, ‘Hey, man why do you talk that way, I mean that is wrong. I don’t go for that so don’t talk that way around me. I just don’t believe that.’ That happened in millions of conversations and slowly the conversation was won.”
Al Gore is using a tried and true tactic: Turn a debate about science and policy into a debate about morals, claim the moral high-ground, then define your opponents as "evil." Put them on the indefensible defensive; once you have to say, "I'm not evil," everyone knows that you are.

The tactic is dishonest, just like Al Gore. (Hey, Al, when did you stop beating your wife?)
Climate is changing. It has been changing since Earth's atmosphere formed, long before man came onto the scene. It will continue to change after we've gone. There is no scientific consensus as to the cause. For you true believers, remember: Gore and company were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, not any of the Nobel science prizes. Those require hard evidence and proven facts. No science prizes have been awarded to any of the alarmists of Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming. The "science" of that theory so far consists just of assumptions encoded in computer software.
“This is an organized effort to attack the reputation of the scientific community as a whole, to attack their integrity, and to slander them with the lie that they are making up the science in order to make money.”
It is not a slander. There are billions, if not trillions of dollars to be made by the alarmists if they have their way. Al Gore has profited as much as anyone from the hype of climate change. He has made tens of millions of dollars in profits from his religion. He is touted as possibly becoming the first carbon billionaire.
Gore stands to benefit in obscene ways, as he is partnered with many in the so called carbon trade. He should tell the truth: He stands to cash in big if a majority of the people believe the earth will end soon due to CAGW. Apocalypse now equals profits.
Gore proves everyday he is not a credible spokesman. Equating skeptics of CAGW with racists is both the silliest and most vicious, irresponsible thing he has come up with so far. But, there are fools who will believe him and practice what he preaches. That is the real problem. A man who never tells the truth about himself is believed by people too blind to recognize a lie.
It is the con artist’s game, and the con artist usually wins. People should just treat Al Gore the same way we treat racists and see how he likes it. Call him out on his hypocrisy every time he opens his mouth. Al Gore is a hater. He should be treated as one.
