Al Gore sells out to Big Oil

Wednesday, January 9th, 2013

Al Gore, the patron Saint of the Algore cult of Global Warming, sold his “Current TV” business to Al Jazeera, which is owned by the Emir of Qatar.

Qatar is one of those oil producing OPEC nations.

It seems that some of the “true believers” on the Current TV staff, who are all being fired, are a bit miffed over this.

Yesterday morning, the still shell shocked staff at Current TV was called to an all hands staff meeting at its San Francisco headquarters, which was teleconferenced to their offices in LA and NYC, to meet their new bosses…

“Of course Al didn’t show up,” said one high placed Current staffer. “He has no credibility.

“He’s supposed to be the face of clean energy and just sold [the channel] to very big oil, the emir of Qatar! Current never even took big oil advertising—and Al Gore, that bulls***ter sells to the emir?”…

“We do stories on the tax code, and he sells the network before the tax code kicked in?”

To quote Allahpundit: “Oh, the schadenfreude.” Perhaps now Algore can afford yet another giant, energy guzzling, mansion.

Follow the Money! Algore edition

Saturday, September 3rd, 2011

Yes, another installment in our Follow the Money series!

This time it’s Algore at the end of the money trail!  Investors Business Daily reports:

No one has made more money from climate change hype than Gore. According to the U.K.’s Guardian newspaper, just one of the “green” companies in which Gore has invested has received over half a billion dollars in subsidies from the Energy Department.

Yup, the same Algore who made piles and piles of money selling so called  “carbon credits” by telling people that the oceans were going to rise within the next few years and flood the coasts, then bought a giant, energy consuming mansion on the southern California coast line.

BBC asks: What happened to global warming?

Monday, October 12th, 2009

Paul Hudson, the BBC News “Climate correspondent” asks an inconvenient question:

What happened to global warming?

For the last 11 years we have not observed any increase in global temperatures.

And our climate models did not forecast it, even though man-made carbon dioxide, the gas thought to be responsible for warming our planet, has continued to rise.

Well, to be honest, there were climate models that didn’t predict the rise of global temperature observed in the 1990s continuing, but there wasn’t a scam to run on the gullible using those models.

One thing that anthropogenic global warming Luddites don’t like to admit is that natural climate change is real and it has happened throughout the planet’s history, and will continue to do so.  Dudes, the planet will abide.

If you are still skeptical over the actual science involved, try this…FOLLOW THE MONEY!

Update: The movie the anthropogenic global warming Luddites at Stanford University don’t want you to see.

An advisor to Al Gore, who makes a lot of money selling so-called “Carbon Credits”, was warning the world about a man made Ice Age that was about to wreak global destruction back in the 1970s.
