The Goracle Returns

Hey! Good news! Al Gore surfaced. (Well, he didn't actually surface. And if he had it would have been more like he "breached", if you catch my drift.) He didn't even make an appearance. No, he put his thoughts on the printed page and mailed it in.

His op-ed in the NYT on Saturday: We Can’t Wish Away Climate Change; is the usual rant about how we can't put off doing something to avert world wide apocalypse. If we don't act now to relinquish control of our world economies to a central power structure (ruled, or at least owned, my me and my friends) then we're all gonna die!!! If you really, truly believe, then send a SASE and $20 to the address below and I will send you a personally signed certificate of you're carbon neutrality. (Okay I made that last sentence up.)

As his house of cards is crumbling around him, Al is getting desperate. he admits there were two (2) mistakes in the IPCC report. (No mention of the other 18 in the report or of those in his books and documentary), so perhaps there is some hope for Albert. They do say the first step is to recognize your mistakes. Ah, who am I kidding, after the 2000 election, Al has gone off the deep end. He is Dr. Evil, the Mad Plotter, and Wile E. Coyote, Super Genius all wrapped up in one. He thought he had a means to real power and wealth but he orders his science from Acme and it's now become dross.

True Believers are looking at the poor science behind the IPCC report and are starting to realize that they've been, well, gored. He's been asked to answer questions in Congress. He won't go without a subpoena. He knows the meaning of the word perjury and would have to tell the truth as he doesn't have the high political position that saved his previous boss from jail time.

It's time for this snake oil salesman, con artist, plotter to fold up his tent and fade into the Tennessee hills--if they'll have him.
