Al Gore Refuses to Listen to Republican Opening Statements
CNSNews.com)
Former Vice President Al Gore apparently will brook no skepticism. Given the opportunity to testify about global warming before the House Energy and Commerce Committee on Wednesday, Gore decided to arrive late, so he wouldn’t have to suffer through the Republican opening statement.
He was seen waiting in a hall outside the committee room, Fox News reported. Republicans agreed to waive their opening remarks in exchange for extra time to question Gore.
Republicans also objected to the fact that they received Gore’s written testimony at 7 a.m. Wednesday morning — hours after Democrats received it.
“How are we supposed to prepare questions for our esteemed witness when we’re basically given the testimony two hours before he shows up?” asked one committee Republican.
Republicans complained that Gore was getting special treatment. The hearing entitled “Perspectives on Climate Change” will also feature Gore critic, Dr. Bjorn Lomborg, adjunct professor at the Copenhagen Consensus Center in Denmark and author of the controversial book “The Skeptical Environmentalist.”
Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works
Gore demanded a waiver of the EPW committee’s 48 hour rule that requires all witnesses before EPW to submit their testimony in advance. The GOP minority on the EPW committee then agreed to waive the 48 hour rule in favor of allowing Gore to submit his testimony 24 hours before the hearing.
Gore has violated the new 24 hour deadline extension by failing to submit his testimony – even with the new time extension granted to Gore.
Wild Thing’s comment……
Gore plays by his own rules. He’s a dhimmicrat, not an American. Gore is running scared I think. He should be as anyone with half a brain knows that Global Warming is only for political activists, a hoax in humongous form!
Hahahahahaha what a jerk he is, a corrupt, sicko…oh wait…he is a Dem, that explains it all.
Inquiring minds want to know. When did Algore get a Phd in Environmental Science ?
If not then how in the hell can he be qualified as an expert in the field. This is the same guy who flunked out of Divinity School, yet he is an expert on the Global environment ? Afterall, flunking out of Divinity School is not the same as flunking out of Rocket-Science-101.
He and his experts told us, in my new home in Deliverance Pennsylvania, that on Friday, it would be about 34 degrees with some snow mixed with rain. That was the 13th of March, then on that day, March 16, we got 12 inches of snow.
These morons can’t even predict the weather 2 and 1/2 days in advance, yet we are to believe that in 20 or 30 years the Polar ice caps are going to be melting so furiously that NYC will be buried under 20 feet of water.
It seems to me Algore has been sniffing glue for too long in that Wax Museum he calls a home, that has the Carbon signiture of the Ford Plant or got too close to Slick Willie when he actually did not inhale.
I don’t want to repeat myself, but Gore stikes me as the crackpot stable boy who saw a red-eyed witch in the barn and he’s gone to the church court to tell his story. Beware, if you’re a milkmaid who irritated Boy Albert; you’re going to the bonfire.
The spectacle of twenty-first century men so superstitious they’d give credence to this constipated yammering psycho is beyond disgusting…it’s scary.
Gore’s is that creepy kind of fanatic who would load undesirables into boxcars while presuming it’s necessary to secure the future. He’s dangerous.
And THIS would have been our 43rd president? Thank GOD Uncle Al ‘Capone’ Gore only took 20 blue states in 2000, and NOT his home state of Tennessee or Bubba’s Arkansas! What the Demlibloonies don’t want you to know is the Florida recount would NOT have occurred if Al had won his home state of Tennessee, OR Clinton’s Arkansas. Dubya took both of those critical states is 2000 so Florida became the ‘Gettysburg’ of the 2000 election! Sorry Al, there IS a GOD!
The Goreons were supposed to give his testimony 48-hours in advance, and it arrived at 2 am this morning? Typical Clinton-Gore mentality of 1993-2000. Go back to your Hollyweirdos and donuts now Al!
It’s too bad the Republicans on the committee didn’t have the kanonas to get up and walk out before Gore started blabbering.
What happens when a major American party becomes the permanent mobile home of cranks, crackpots, fanatics, radicals, nihilists, cultists of all kinds, media elites, academic elites, coastal elites, entertainment industry screwballs, free-lance subversives, and people with free-floating hatred for everything outside themselves?
I don’t know. Just asking.
Mark, LOL good question. In Gore’s case if he did ( he doesn’t though) but if he did have a PHD it would have to stand for
Phoney
Horrible
Democrat
heh heh
OMG this is hilarious……
“It seems to me Algore has been sniffing glue for too long in that Wax Museum he calls a home”
Rhod now that is a question of the ages…heh heh
You described the left party perfectly.
Rhod, I agree, I think Gore is VERY dangerous. When I learned he worshipped GIA or however it is spelled…mother earth I almost fell off my chair laughing.
Darth your right, what a total nightmare if he had become President. YIKES, double YIKES,
Bob, oh gosh that would have been great, or even to do it while he spoke. giggle
Gore has found a new love, ——–himself!
I wrote this for my wife’s blog — sorry for the length — applies to alarmist environmentalism.

ARE SECONDHAND FARTS BAD FOR YOU
I love science, real science. Aside from keeping my children and grandchildren alive, it has given me a glimpse of the beginning of the cosmos, the formation of our solar system, and we now have terrific satellites orbiting at a planet near you. http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/mro/ The pictures alone justify the cost.
I despise being around tobacco smoke and Bullshit Science. I was in a room full of the latter recently at the Greencastle Indiana League of Women Voters program on “second hand smoke”. I’ve heard that there are always two sides to an argument … in Real Science, there are an infinite number of sides. Until you know the answer — then there’s only one. E=MC2 does not rest on a consensus of scientists. And when, hopefully, we move beyond it, like Einstein moved beyond Newton, it will not be because of a change in the political winds.
There is no definitive experimental evidence showing that second hand tobacco smoke is dangerous to the general population. The studies published by the Surgeon General are government sponsored scientific fraud. The largest, best controlled studies of exposure to secondhand smoke show NO harm — except that one shows some possible benefit — but that’s GOTTA be a statistical anomaly.
You and I both would like to not have to smell either shit or tobacco smoke when we go to public areas, right? And theres no way it’s either a natural environmental factor or helpful, right? And it does make some people with lung problems very sick. So lets make a law, citing as a reason that we don’t like the odor.
But you see, if we keep up the present course, someday Nice Liberals will lose control of power, and we will be looking down the barrel of Creationist No-Holocaust Aryan Science — and there won’t be a goddam rational leg left for us to stand on.
Tom, LOL, and what a love affair it is too. heh heh
And who has the more environmentally friendly house? It isn’t Gore–his new house uses way more every day than the average house uses in a month.
Isn’t he creating greenhouses gasses himself? (in more ways than one?)
HYPOCRITE!
I hear there are four king-sized water beds in each master bedroom of Al Capone Gore’s four mansions. Imagine Al and Tipper getting a Cialisis
or Viagra moment, and there’s a four hour ‘pole vaulter’ reaction? TIDAL WAVE? They don’t call AL the Tennessee Tsunami for nothing! FRED THOMPSON sounded GREAT on Laura Ingraham’s radio show last night. Replay on (www.hotair.com) and for 14 minutes – Fred had my vote. Run Thompson run?
