How could someone so dedicated to understanding, knowledge, rigourous pursuits of truth and identity fail out of grad school?

Mr. Reason didn't seem to stop the first WTC attack, not a host of other terrorist attacks.

What a tool.

Al Gore and Diane Sawyer.

I watched the 9 minutes and some they had in the first clip... and Al Gore says democracy is broken and we continuously make bad mistakes because we don't have the facts. But, he doesn't give a current example. He of course spews the same old "six" year old example he has now for us going into Iraq. SIX years ago.

 Thanks Al, you even count correctly.

 I guess the Elemental Environmental Global Human Race Extinction Phrophet is exempt from his own analysis because he got ahead of the curve and is now saving the human race from extinction...

LOL - Man alive -- I cannot even imagine the ego.

The "Great Fall" of the left engineered by Al Gore and his "World is Ending" psychophatholigical fans is soon to be here, and I can hardly wait.

 In fact, for the first time ever yesterday, I heard the softening core of the babbling morons bleeding out a bit, as one of them stated concerning AGW " If we just do a little bit we can easily divert this coming disaster. "

LOL - The husk of stupidity is slowly coming to the realization that they've blown it entirely, and one of the best things about this is the USA hasn't caved to the KKKyoto World KKKontrol FreaKKK KKKookballs.

There are some very good years ahead, as they ALL WILL BE EATING CROW.

No-no-no. Gore assisted in 9/11.

Let the evidence be weighed (something that the MSM has little interest in). Perhaps it was V.P. Al Gore who found himself in the position of preventing  9/11, and then found that he lacked personal and ethical commitment to do the job. 

July 1996

PRESIDENT CLINTON: I have asked Vice President Gore to take charge of a commission to review aviation safety, security, and the pace of modernization of the air traffic control system.

 “The Gore Commission's final report which will examine the entire government role in aviation is expected in mid 1997.” PBS. Online News Hour SEPTEMBER 3, 1996

White House Commission onAviation Safety and SecurityFinal Report to President Clinton Vice President Al Gore, ChairmanFebruary 12, 1997 

Interesting to note that the very first entry in the appendices is:

 A.     Civil Liberties Advisory Board Recommendations

 And what occurred? What did Gore (and the Clinton administration) do to implement the security recommendations?

 Keep in mind that 1996 was an election year

‘On Sept. 20, 2001, the Boston Globe broke the story of how the so-called Gore Commission had failed in its mission to address airline safety. The Globe claimed this failure "represents the clearest recent public example of the success that airlines have long had in defeating calls for more oversight." The Globe traced that failure to a series of campaign donations from the airlines to the Democratic National Committee in 1996 in the wake of the crash of TWA Flight 800.” Why did Al Gore really drop out?

 A bit more, perhaps…

But within days, according to an insider on the commission, the airline industry jumped all over Gore. As a result, 10 days later, Gore sent a letter to airline lobbyist Carol Hallett promising that the commission's findings would not result in any loss of revenue.

 In what can only be seen as a pure political payoff, the Democratic National Committee received $40,000 from TWA the next day. Within two weeks, Northwest, United and American Airlines ponied up another $55,000 for the 1996 campaign.

 But the money trail didn't stop there. In the next two months leading up to the November elections, American Airlines donated $250,000 to the Democrats. United donated $100,000 to the DNC. Northwestern put $53,000 more into the kitty.

Following the election, in January, Gore floated a draft final report that eliminated all security measures from the commission's findings, according to the insider. Two commission members balked, as did CIA Director John Deutch. How Gore aborted air safety

Can somebody do an interview with Gore and get his opinion of then-Pres. Clinton's limited bombing campaign in 1998?

In another instance, Gore says that “many feel that one of the hidden
reasons for launching the war in Iraq in early 2003 was the oft-stated
and long-held opinion of Vice President Dick Cheney and others that
ensuring continued U.S. access to the easily recoverable oil reserves
of the Persian Gulf is so important as to justify even the
extraordinary cost and reckless risk to America’s reputation of
invading another country on false pretenses.”

I kinda remember the pretenses for Clinton bombing Iraq in 1998 made it seem like Bush was echoing him in the run up to the invasion --- something about WMDs and a threat to global security and terrorism.....

I guess since those were false pretenses in 2003, they were false in 1998 too...

Or, maybe it was the fact that only a few Iraqis were killed in the limited bombing - you know - the kind of limited bombing that acts as a punitive measure in a hope to get more cooperation - which shut Libya up - sorta - in the 1980s but didn't solve squat when it came to Iraq under Clinton.

I mean, if Gore still believes that Clinton was correct in his pretenses for the limited bombing, we are arguing about means to a solution rather than lies about the nature of the problem, correct?

I'd say Clinton probably had oil supply in mind too - what idiot of a president wouldn't understand how the global economy would come crashing down - resulting in untold deaths - if the supply of Gulf oil was severly hampered...

But, maybe Gore was just throwing out ear candy for the brain dead masses?

"Gore notes at two different points in the book -- "Bin Laden Determined
to Strike in U.S." -- which he refers to as "a headline more alarming
and more pointed than any I saw in eight years of six-days-a-week CIA
briefings."'

That's interesting, considering the info contained within the pdb carrying that headline was mostly historical data from previous pdb's issued during those 8 years. So, is he saying that he didn't actually read those previous pdb's, or is he saying he was unable to interpret their meaning without the help of a new headline spelling it out for him?

Oh my God, we are SOOO freakin' lucky this clown isn't our president. If you haven't in the past, I recommend everyone thank the deity of their choice for this wonderful gift as often as possible.

Illegal Immigrants cause global warming. Build the wall to save the Earth. Don't we owe it to the children?
