Sorry for the delay, been working.
I don't have the quote, but I recall hearing his rant on how those who are "deniers" or who support carbon based fuels are causing the destruction of the planet through climate change. That's when he started his 10 year countdown to Armageddon about seven years ago.
Cheers

Well said. Thanks for the dialogue.

Thank you for your input. I appreciate the dialogue.

I respect Al Gore but not what he said in this quote. After every electronic failure there's this baloney questioning "Why didn't the electronics engineer foresee this" It's easy to ask in hindsight. They did the same thing with the BP spill. It's so easy to condemn after the fact.

I want you to choose to read the data and make your own decision. It's pretty cut and dried to me, but perhaps you have a more, um, "nuanced" position?

Good example of progressive "by any means necessary" politics required for Crapitalism.

Only when they are deluded, then like any good person, I try to help. Sadly, some enjoy the delusion of life as a fantasy. Be well.

Actually I am the product of 12 years of Catholic education, but don't worry, I am fully recovered. I think I might have been better off in public schools as far as critical thinking goes but that is water under the bridge. Do you always assume that opinions you disagree with are solely based on lies? Maybe negatives can't be disproved, but lies can. Have a nice life.

You want ME to decide if you can offer any factual basis for what you are saying?

That was funny.

Science versus religious environmentalism. They used to be happy getting stoned in the forest as they "got back to nature". Now they want to convince us that if we don't cling to a tree and pray to the weather god, she is going to destroy us all in "climate upheavals" (I think that's what we used to call "storms").

Let me try this slowly with small words.

Johnny says Jane hit him in the arm (which she did not) Jane says she didn't hit Johnny but because she's trying to prove that she didn't him, nobody believes her. The next time Johnny tells Jane that if she will give him a dollar, he won't accuse her of hitting him.

Now lets substitute a few names.

Al Gore (and his minions) claims that there is global warming and climate upheavals are the result and mankinds industry is to blame for it all. Industry says it's a lie, that they have not clanged the climate, it's just as it's always been. But Al just keeps on lieing. Then one day he talks to congress and tells them if they spend $20 trillion dollars the climate upheavals will be better. He skims off the top along with his libtard buddies who all bought stock in "environmentally green industries" and as trillions are sucked out of traditional industries, more and more people are laid off and can't find work. But Big Al is happy because he is rich and can fly his polluting jet all over while we can't afford to put gas in a Pus-us. (Prius)

Rough crowd.

You decide:

I understand you are having problems with this, you're most likely the product of a public education system where your parents thought you were being sent to learn to think independently.

I cannot "prove" that a lie is wrong since it has no basis in reality. It's impossible to disprove a negative. I say global warming is a lie, but you turn on a TV and listen to the weatherman tell you that it's warmer outside than it was last year in someplace. Well, it's ALWAYS warmer someplace than where you are but that does not prove GW is real.

We are currently at the normal peak of the 11 year sunspot cycle, which accounts for the increased hurricanes and tornados. Solar activity is at a maximum which does heat the earth which causes more storms, but it's due to the cycle, not man caused GW.

If you scroll up a bit you'll see a post I made about the eruption of Mt Pinatubo in 1991. More greenhouse gases were vomited out in 6 hours than we have generated in 150 years, but the entire Earth COOLED a half a degree and there was a bit more rain the next couple years as the Earth washed the soot out of the skies. That was it.

Wait around a while and the weather WILL change. Wait long enough and it will be warmer. Wait long enough and it will be colder. If you call that CC, I'll agree with you, but if you keep insisting that there is going to be this great upheaval of the climate and polar bears are drowning (what stupidity was THAT farce!) all we can do is laugh at it.

Climate upheaval IS serious. I don't listen to the Weather Channel but you apparently do. If you don't agree with them why do you watch it?

I research many sources for my information on climate change, one of those links is as follows:

Can you offer me any links to back up your research (assuming you do research)?

Thank you for your gobbledygook. I hope you get well soon.

Can you offer any factual basis for what you are saying?

Here is his quote that I found, which stops short of blaming him for the Hurricane but certainly on the response to the Hurricane:

“Four years ago in August of 2001, President Bush received a dire warning: "Al Qaeda determined to attack inside the US." No meetings were called, no alarms were sounded, no one was brought together to say, "What else do we know about this imminent threat? What can we do to prepare our nation for what we have been warned is about to take place?" If there had been preparations, they would have found a lot of information collected by the FBI, and CIA and NSA - including the names of most of the terrorists who flew those planes into the WTC and the Pentagon and the field in Pennsylvania. The warnings of FBI field offices that there were suspicious characters getting flight training without expressing any curiosity about the part of the training that has to do with landing. They would have found directors of FBI field offices in a state of agitation about the fact that there was no plan in place and no effective response. Instead, it was vacation time, not a time for preparation. Or protecting the American people.

Four years later, there were dire warnings, three days before Hurricane Katrina hit NOLA, that if it followed the path it was then on, the levees would break, and the city of New Orleans would drown, and thousands of people would be at risk. It was once again vacation time. And the preparations were not made, the plans were not laid, the response then was not forthcoming."

Regardless, clearly it was Bush's fault. <tongue firmly in cheek>

Do you mean Gore blamed the hurricane itself on Bush, not just the response to it? I would be surprised but not shocked. I'd love to see the quote.

But Algore says George Bush caused Katrina and the global warming cult believes him.

Climate science is not based on taking measurements of the air and water and different locations and extrapolating.

Spewing is a technique used by trolls on this site, IMHO. NASA is frequently very wrong. Especially around budget time. They can gin up an atmospheric crisis with the best of the voodoo wizards at the SSI. they did it with the ozone hole in the 80s and 90s, global cooling and now Anthropomorphic global warming... I mean climate change. It sucks when the atmospheric physics doesn't follow along with ones clever bumper sticker ideology. Follow the money when it comes to federal funding of agencies.
