      I really had no idea that it it wasn't for Al Gore, there would be no Climate Change scientists? Wow, he truly is more powerful than I thought.

      First Al Gore creates the internet
      Next he invents Climate Change.


      According to these idiots, he is the most powerful man in the world.

      Gore simply presented the opinions and data of the world's foremost climatologists and meteorologists. These idiots are going to have a helluva time trying to pin anything at all on Al Gore. He didn't create the opinions and data. What a load.

      Even if global warming wasn't a real problem (it is) how would this be a Ponzi scheme?

        About as many as he has on criminal investigation (i.e., none) . . .

      AGAIN, THE PENTAGON HAS PUBLICLY STATED GLOBAL WARMING IS A THREAT TO NATIONAL SECURITY. I love how they pick and choose what issues the Pentagon is credible in.

      Um, Jim -- did Gore receive $50 billion from hundreds of individuals as a result of global warming?

      Varney is an EXTREMELY pompous and pretentious commentator. He's often a guest on Hannity's radio show and is very abrasive, rude, and often interrupts the other guest.

      One day he and Bob Beckel were debating the recent unemployment numbers-Varney ranted about how we had 52 months of job creation after the Bush "tax cuts" but forgot to mention how we had exponential job loss AFTER that.

      Take anything he says with a grain of salt.

      These guys have to keep talking about Al Gore and the Global Climate Change "lie," because it hasn't become part of the Accepted Language yet. It hasn't become Fact through Repetition, like "Al Gore invented the internet" and "Reagan cut the budget." And they will NOT stop until it has.

      Al Gore should be investigated and indicted on racketeering charges. I am sure some RICO statutes would apply. He is deliberately spreading a hoax to try to financially gain. He has made nearly $100 million by perpetrating this fraud.

        It's not fraud, BJ fan. And, all Gore did was present the opinions and data of the overwhelming majority of the world's climatologists and meteorologists. Keep up, BJ fan. You look really uninformed when you post false talking points. There isn't a single thing that Al Gore has done with regard to the presentation of the facts of global warming/climate change which would constitute either a criminal offense or civil liability.

        Inform yourself.

          One of the videos I suggested viewing by potholer54 looks at Gore and where he differs from the actual science (some misrepresentation in the attempt to 'dumb down' some aspects).
          Here is the video (9:51 in length).
