Global warming is an opinion not a fact. I don't recall hearing about global warming for the entire 8 years Gore was in office.
Gore may talk the talk but I have trouble with a guy who flys around in private jets lecturing me to be more energy conscious.

Global warming is Al Gore's pet peeve and his personal hobby since he has nothing better to do.
For the record, even with the revelations last week that NASA had a bunch of temperature figures wrong and a bunch of "hottest years on record" actually aren't, I don't think there's much doubt that the Earth is warming. Polar ice caps are definitely shrinking. But how much impact does man really have on this, and how much can we really control it? Heck, the polar ice caps on Mars are shrinking pretty dramatically as well.....surely mankind has no impact on that!! Increased solar activity, among other natural phenomena, is most likely the greater player/culprit in the whole thing.
I'm all for doing what we can to save the environment, but too many people have knee jerk reactions to things and take some perverse pleasure in making themselves look good to others by posturing.
