The Bottom Line There is no such thing as Global Warming. Think Bogey Man Stories. They can't solve the real problems of the world like poverty,disease and starvation.
Live Earth Concert is a veiled attempt by Al Gore to run for Democratic Presidential Nomination without spending his own money. Global warming is a load of fertilizer. Check out http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=12838 and the websites listed at the end of this comentary on good old Al. Al Gore wrote the book Earth in the Balance: Ecology and the Human Spirit, which is the wacko socialist manifesto to regulate everything based on junk science. He parroted the extremist EARTH FIRSTers terrorist party line with a straight face. It is probably the most ignorant book ever written about the environment. In it he wrote the scary totalitarian prescription "we must make the rescue of the environment the central organizing principle for civilization." The following are highlights from a 1992 Democratic National Committee (DNC) memo by Jonathan Sallet to the Clinton-Gore campaign that highlighted Gore vulnerabilities from his extremist manifestoEarth in the Balance. The memo was obtained by the Wall Street Journal, which published it in August of 1992. Among the DNC's findings: "Al is a radical environmentalist who wants to change the very fabric of America." "He (Gore) criticizes America for being America -- a place where people enjoy the benefits of an advanced standard of living." "He (Gore) has no sense of proportion: He equates the failure to recycle aluminum cans with the Holocaust." "He (Gore) believes that our civilization, itself, is evil (because it is, in his words, 'addicted to the consumption of the earth.')" Recently Gore was asked by Gannett News if his opinions have changed since writing Earth in the Balance. Gore said: "There is not a single passage in that book that I disagree with or would change." (Gannett News Service, 3/23/99) Gore called the internal combustion engine the greatest enemy of mankind, see - Al Gore vs. the Automobile Gore wrote in EARTH IN THE BALANCE pp 325-326, "It ought to be possible to establish a coordinated global program to accomplish the strategic goal of completely eliminating the internal combustion engine (by government fiat) over, say, a 25 year period." "I wrote in this book Earth in the Balance that we should set as a strategic goal the phasing out of the internal-combustion engine over a 25-year period. I accept now that was a mistake. Twenty-five years is far too long for a goal like that. I think we can do it quicker." (Ramesh Ponnuru, "The Attack Man," National Review, February 21, 2000) GORE ON GAS PAUL EHRLICH'S BOOK, ON GAS PRICES: "The United States could start by gradually imposing a higher gasoline tax-hiking it by one or two cents per month until gasoline costs $2.50 to $3.00 per gallon, comparable to prices in Europe and Japan." (Paul R. Ehrlich and Anne H. Ehrlich, The Population Explosion, 1990, pp. 219-220) On the dustcover of the book, Gore said, "The time for action is due, and past due. Ehrlich has written the prescription." "Higher taxes on fossil fuels. . . is one of the logical first steps in changing our policies in a manner consistent with a more responsible approach to the environment." (Al Gore, Earth in the Balance, 1993, p. 173) Al Gore Supported Plans For Even Higher Gas Prices By Endorsing The Kyoto Protocol. At the 1997 Kyoto Conference, Al Gore committed to reducing United States carbon emissions to less than 1990 levels by 2012. Key to discharging Al Gore’s promises at Kyoto is a carbon tax which experts have concluded will raise gas prices by 65 cents a gallon and reduce average household income by nearly $2700 even as the cost of goods and services rise in response to higher taxes. ("Global Warming: The High Cost of the Kyoto Protocol," WEFA, Inc., 1998, p. 1) Al Gore Cast The Tie-Breaking Vote To Increase The Gas Tax By 4.3 Cents A Gallon. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993, a $241 billion tax increase proposed by the Clinton/Gore Administration, passed on August 6, 1993 on the tie-breaking vote cast by Gore. Included in the bill was a 4.3 cent per gallon gas tax increase. Gore was also its leading advocate in the Administration according to author Bob Woodward: "The meeting quickly turned to the gasoline tax. Vice President Gore, a strong environmentalist who advocated energy taxes as a way to reduce pollution, argued that the tax should be retained. President Clinton could be attacked on character if he dropped the gasoline tax now, Gore said emphatically and emotionally." (Bob Woodward, "The Agenda: Inside the Clinton White House, Part 3 of 4," The Washington Post, June 7, 1994) Al Gore Was The Chief Advocate Of The Proposed 1993 BTU Tax, Which Would Have Raised Gas Prices By Six Percent. According to George Stephanopoulos, "Gore was the chief advocate of the energy tax, arguing that it was good for both the economy and the environment." (George Stephanopoulos, All Too Human: A Political Education, 1999, p. 206) Al Gore Has Been A "Driving Force" Behind The Increased Regulation Of Gasoline, Which Has Resulted In An Increase In Gas Prices. Al Gore has been a "driving force" behind the stricter regulation of gasoline, which has "pushed up production prices and created a patchwork of contradictory gasoline formulas in various parts of the country." (Bill Sammon, "Gore’s Strategy Is To Vilify Oil Firms," The Washington Times, June 22, 2000) A recent study by the bipartisan Congressional Research Service cited these factors as contributing to the massive increase in gas prices in the Midwest. (Lawrence Kumins, "Midwest Gasoline Price Increases," Congressional Research Service, June 16, 2000) http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=12838 http://personals.galaxyinternet.net/tunga/OSGWD.htm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGCRK85gAI0&mode=related&search= http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGZF_4ph8PQ&mode=related&search=  |
