I love the word hypocrite. Applied so easily to people we don't like, but withheld from radio talk show hosts who make comments about the loose morals of American women, and yet they have not only been married several times, and fail to put forth their own battles with addictions . Yes, hypocrite is a wonderful word.

It means the same for all. Whether it gets pointed out and by whom does vary.

Al Gore?... Seriously, that's what you're hanging your hat on?l

Al Gore is the Alarmist Pope

Anyhow... I am anxious to see if the Liberal government in Canada is going to pay off their carbon debt to the UN. That and see how many other promises they make in Paris. Promises that they won't honor of course.

Al Gore optimistic about stopping global warming

But he said it’s no longer just about convincing people to act — it now makes sense economically, too. He says solar and wind energy is dirt cheap — even free in Texas at certain hours. Businesses and developing countries are taking climate change seriously, he said.

“There really is a wave in corporate America moving rapidly toward a low carbon economy,” Gore said.

Of course he said that. It is all rubbish though.

And American businesses have learned that lip service is all that is needed. One need only look at Apple to see that.

Watch out for falling ladders

After today, I'd say that was the least of his worries.

I know the conference doesn't start for a couple of weeks - around Nov 30 I think - still I wonder if a new venue might be considered in light of the attacks today. Either that or Paris will of necessity be turned into a police state.

Just think... weeks from now the self declared righteous will walk across bloodstained sidewalks, walk by heavily armed soldiers and police and talk about the greatest threat... the climate.

He ain't too bright and he's a hypocrite.

But............but ............he invented the internet..........didn't he?..........was sure I heard him say so.

Just think... weeks from now the self declared righteous will walk across bloodstained sidewalks, walk by heavily armed soldiers and police and talk about the greatest threat... the climate.

Maybe it's the climate's affect on these vermin. Maybe the increasing temps are slowly cooking their brains.

What's great is that this will only embolden the people involved to work harder to reach targets.
