Al Gore Jr.
An Inconvenient Liar (TN)

and

Climate Liars Around the World

In Copenhagen this week liar Gore stated:

There is a 75% chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during the summer months, could be completely ice-free within the next five to seven years. Some of the models suggest to Dr. [Wieslav] Maslowski that there is a 75 percent chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during the summer months, could be completely ice-free within five to seven years.

However, the climatologist whose work Mr. Gore was relying upon dropped the former Vice President in the water with an icy blast.

“It’s unclear to me how this figure was arrived at,’ Dr. Maslowski said. ‘I would never try to estimate likelihood at anything as exact as this.”

Mr. Gore’s office later admitted that the 75 percent figure was one used by Dr. Maslowksi as a ‘ballpark figure’ several years ago in a conversation with Mr. Gore. … Perhaps Mr. Gore had felt the need to gild the lily to buttress resolve.

Richard Lindzen, a climate scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who does not believe that global warming is largely caused by man, said:

“He’s just extrapolated from 2007, when there was a big retreat, and got zero.”

Here’s Algore, citing the same lie during Senate testimony in January of this year: A 75% chance the entire polar ice cap in the North Pole gone in the summertime:

“Professor Wieslav Maslowski at the Naval postgraduate school in Monterey has calculated that there is an 80% chance that the entire north polar ice cap will be completely and totally gone in summer months in less than five years.”

This is one more embarrassing lie casting another shadow over the so-called climate conference after the controversy over the hacked e-mails from the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit, which exposed scientists who manipulated data to strengthen their argument that human activities were causing global warming. Of course since these Moonbats can’t prove global warming they now call it “climate change” to conveniently dodge the facts.

Despite emails from the University of East Anglia that show global warming data was manipulated Tony Blair said it was urgent to act now.

“It is said that the science around climate change is not as certain as its proponents allege. It doesn’t need to be. What is beyond debate, however, is that there is a huge amount of scientific support for the view that the climate is changing and as a result of human activity,” Blair said.

“Therefore, even purely as a matter of precaution, given the seriousness of the consequences if such a view is correct, and the time it will take for action to take effect, we should act. Not to do so would be grossly irresponsible.”

Socialists of the world to discuss their lie, complain about America, capitalism and attempt to blame the United States for something they can’t prove because it doesn’t exist. It’s all about more wealth distribution and stealing money from the US citizens to prop up the United Nations and third world dictators as well as fund schemes by Al Gore and his ilk to trade carbon credits for real money.

These people should be fed to the polar bears but would most likely be spit out onto the Arctic Ice after one bite. Indeed!

Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid (NV)

Remember when Harry Reid declared, “This War Is Lost” and the surge was eventually successful in Iraq? Well, Mr. Reid has topped his idiocy in fine fashion as FoxNews.com reported on his latest utterance in the debate over ObamaCare.

Reid argued that Republicans are using the same stalling tactics employed in the pre-Civil War era. (Video Here)

“Instead of joining us on the right side of history, all the Republicans can come up with is, ‘slow down, stop everything, let’s start over.’ If you think you’ve heard these same excuses before, you’re right,” Reid said Monday. “When this country belatedly recognized the wrongs of slavery, there were those who dug in their heels and said ‘slow down, it’s too early, things aren’t bad enough.’ ”

He continued: “When women spoke up for the right to speak up, they wanted to vote, some insisted they simply, slow down, there will be a better day to do that, today isn’t quite right.

“When this body was on the verge of guaranteeing equal civil rights to everyone regardless of the color of their skin, some senators resorted to the same filibuster threats that we hear today.”

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who on the Senate floor read from this FoxNews.com article and asked that it be placed in the record, called on Reid to return to the floor and, if not apologize, at least explain what he meant. 

Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., suggested Reid was starting to “crack” under the pressure of the health care reform debate. I believe Mr. Reid cracked a very long time ago.

“I think it’s beneath the dignity of the majority leader,” Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla., said. “I personally am insulted.”

It’s beneath the dignity of any sane human being and an insult to the American people. Reid should resign and the Senate should censure him as an added bonus.

Harry Reid needs a history lesson so let’s provide one:

It was Southern Democrats who mounted an 83-day filibuster of the 1964 Civil Rights Bill. The final vote to cut off debate saw 29 Senators in opposition, 80% of them Democrats. Among those voting to block the civil rights bill was West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd, who personally filibustered the bill for 14 hours. The next year he also opposed the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Mr. Byrd still sits in the Senate, and indeed preceded Mr. Reid as his party’s majority leader until he stepped down from that role in 1989.

James Taranto at OpinionJournal asks:

How could such a thoroughly unappealing man have gotten so far in politics?

Reid offered no apologies for his statements:

 “At pivotal points in American history, tactics of distortion and delay have certainly been present,” Reid said. “They’ve been used to stop progress. That’s what we’re talking about here. What’s happening here is very clear. That’s the point I made—no more, no less.”

Reid added, “Anyone who knowingly distorts my comments is only proving my point.”

By printing direct quotes and displaying Reid’s own words we would point out to the dimwitted Senator that he alone distorted history and his statements prove he is dwelling somewhere below Whale dung.

Senator Harry Reid, Moonbat, indeed!

Sen. John Kerry (MA)

Barack Hussein Obama unveiled his new Afghanistan strategy this week, and in the nick of time Senator John Kerry arrived with a report claiming that none of this would be necessary if former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld had only deployed more troops eight years ago. Yes, he really said more troops.

In a 49-page report issued this week by his Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Mr. Kerry says bin Laden and deputy Ayman Zawahiri were poised for capture at the Tora Bora cave complex in late 2001. But because of the,

“unwillingness” of Mr. Rumsfeld and his generals “to deploy the troops required to take advantage of solid intelligence and unique circumstances to kill or capture bin Laden,” the al Qaeda leaders escaped.

This in turn,

“paved the way for exactly what we had hoped to avoid—a protracted insurgency that has cost more lives than anyone estimates would have been lost in a full-blown assault on Tora Bora.”

The timing of the report’s release suggests that Mr. Kerry intends this as political cover for Mr. Obama and Democrats, and some in the press corps have even taken it seriously. But coming from Mr. Kerry, of all people, this criticism is nothing short of astonishing.

In 2001 the Washington establishment that included Mr. Kerry was fretting about the danger in Afghanistan from committing too many troops. The New York Times made the “quagmire” point explicitly in a famous page-one analysis, and Seymour Hersh fed the cliche at The New Yorker.

On CNN with Larry King on Dec. 15, 2001, a viewer called in to say the U.S. should “smoke [bin Laden] out” of the Tora Bora caves. Mr. Kerry responded:

“For the moment what we are doing, I think, is having its impact and it is the best way to protect our troops and sort of minimalize the proximity, if you will. I think we have been doing this pretty effectively and we should continue to do it that way.”

The Rumsfeld-General Tommy Franks troop strategy may have missed bin Laden, but it reflected domestic political doubts about an extended Afghan campaign.

Remarkably, Mr. Kerry is now repeating those same doubts about Mr. Obama’s troop decision, saying that the “Afghans must do the heavy lifting” and that he supports additional troops only for “limited purposes” and wants the U.S. out within “four to five years.” Adapting his legendary 2004 campaign locution, Mr. Kerry is now in favor of more troops after he was against them, but in any case not for very long.

Kerry received an answer from Gen. Tommy Franks in a NY Times Op-Ed in 2004 (below) but Kerry still likes to think of himself as a military expert. From the real expert, Gen. Tommy Franks: (Emphasis by LC)

President Bush and Senator John Kerry have very different views of the war on terrorism, and those differences ought to be debated in this presidential campaign. But the debate should focus on facts, not distortions of history.

On more than one occasion, Senator Kerry has referred to the fight at Tora Bora in Afghanistan during late 2001 as a missed opportunity for America. He claims that our forces had Osama bin Laden cornered and allowed him to escape. How did it happen? According to Mr. Kerry, we “outsourced” the job to Afghan warlords. As commander of the allied forces in the Middle East, I was responsible for the operation at Tora Bora, and I can tell you that the senator’s understanding of events doesn’t square with reality.

First, take Mr. Kerry’s contention that we “had an opportunity to capture or kill Osama bin Laden” and that “we had him surrounded.” We don’t know to this day whether Mr. bin Laden was at Tora Bora in December 2001. Some intelligence sources said he was; others indicated he was in Pakistan at the time; still others suggested he was in Kashmir. Tora Bora was teeming with Taliban and Qaeda operatives, many of whom were killed or captured, but Mr. bin Laden was never within our grasp.

Second, we did not “outsource” military action. We did rely heavily on Afghans because they knew Tora Bora, a mountainous, geographically difficult region on the border of Afghanistan and Pakistan. It is where Afghan mujahedeen holed up for years, keeping alive their resistance to the Soviet Union. Killing and capturing Taliban and Qaeda fighters was best done by the Afghan fighters who already knew the caves and tunnels.

Third, the Afghans weren’t left to do the job alone. Special forces from the United States and several other countries were there, providing tactical leadership and calling in air strikes. Pakistani troops also provided significant help – as many as 100,000 sealed the border and rounded up hundreds of Qaeda and Taliban fighters.

Contrary to Senator Kerry, President Bush never “took his eye off the ball” when it came to Osama bin Laden. The war on terrorism has a global focus. It cannot be divided into separate and unrelated wars, one in Afghanistan and another in Iraq. Both are part of the same effort to capture and kill terrorists before they are able to strike America again, potentially with weapons of mass destruction. Terrorist cells are operating in some 60 countries, and the United States, in coordination with dozens of allies, is waging this war on many fronts.

As we planned for potential military action in Iraq and conducted counterterrorist operations in several other countries in the region, Afghanistan remained a center of focus. Neither attention nor manpower was diverted from Afghanistan to Iraq. When we started Operation Iraqi Freedom we had about 9,500 troops in Afghanistan, and by the time we finished major combat operations in Iraq last May we had more than 10,000 troops in Afghanistan.

We are committed to winning this war on all fronts, and we are making impressive gains. Afghanistan has held the first free elections in its history. Iraq is led by a free government made up of its own citizens. By the end of this year, NATO and American forces will have trained 125,000 Iraqis to enforce the law, fight insurgents and secure the borders. This is in addition to the great humanitarian progress already achieved in Iraq.

Many hurdles remain, of course. But the gravest danger would result from the withdrawal of American troops before we finish our work. Today we are asking our servicemen and women to do more, in more places, than we have in decades. They deserve honest, consistent, no-spin leadership that respects them, their families and their sacrifices. The war against terrorism is the right war at the right time for the right reasons. And Iraq is one of the places that war must be fought and won. George W. Bush has his eye on that ball and Senator John Kerry does not.

John Kerry and Barack Hussein Obama should go back and read the op-ed by Gen. Franks and stop their lies about George W. Bush, Iraq and Afghanistan.

John Kerry has been dishonest his whole life and hasn’t stopped yet. John Kerry, liar, treasonous, Moonbat. Indeed!
