If that is the aim then this film needs to be left out of schools altogether because the entire film has nothing to do with anything but political indoctrination.



Amen!

This is little more than the schools participating in lies and HUGE political fraud. The stakes are over 6 billion dollars, and that would be a beginning figure.

Gore, U.N. panel share Nobel for peace 
For efforts to spread awareness of 'man-made climate change'

Former Vice President Al Gore and the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change jointly won the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize Friday for their efforts to spread awareness of man-made climate change and to lay the foundations for fighting it.

Gore, who won an Academy Award earlier this year for his film on global warming, "An Inconvenient Truth," had been widely tipped to win the prize.

He said that global warming was not a political issue but a worldwide crisis.

"We face a true planetary emergency. ... It is a moral and spiritual challenge to all of humanity," he said. "It is also our greatest opportunity to lift global consciousness to a higher level."

The win is also likely add further fuel to a burgeoning movement in the United States for Gore to run for president in 2008, which he has so far said he does not plan to do.

Kenneth Sherrill, a political scientist at Hunter College in New York said Gore probably enjoys being a public person more than an elected official.

"He seems happier and liberated in the years since his loss in 2000. Perhaps winning the Nobel and being viewed as a prophet in his own time will be sufficient," says Sherrill.

Two Gore advisers, speaking on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to share his thinking, said the award will not make it more likely that he will seek the presidency. If anything, the Peace Prize makes the rough-and-tumble of a presidential race less appealing to Gore, they said, because now he has a huge, international platform to fight global warming and may not want to do anything to diminish it.

One of the advisers said that while Gore is unlikely to rule out a bid in the coming days, the prospects of the former vice president entering the fray in 2008 are "extremely remote."

In its citation, the committed lauded Gore's "strong commitment, reflected in political activity, lectures, films and books, has strengthened the struggle against climate change. He is probably the single individual who has done most to create greater worldwide understanding of the measures that need to be adopted."

Ole Danbolt Mjoes, chairman of the prize committee, said the award should not be seen as singling out the Bush administration for criticism.

"A peace prize is never a criticism of anything. A peace prize is a positive message and support to all those champions of peace in the world."

Bush abandoned the Kyoto Protocol because he said it would harm the U.S. economy and because it did not require immediate cuts by countries like China and India. The treaty aimed to put the biggest burden on the richest nations that contributed the most carbon emissions.

The U.S. Senate voted against mandatory carbon reductions before the Kyoto negotiations were completed. The treaty was never presented to the Senate for ratification by the Clinton Administration.

"Al Gore has fought the environment battle even as vice president," Mjoes said. "Many did not listen ... but he carried on."

Gore supporters have been raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for petition drives and advertising in an effort to lure him into the Democratic presidential primaries. One group, Draftgore.com, ran a full-page open letter to Gore in Wednesday's New York Times, imploring him to get into the race.

Gore, 59, has been coy, saying repeatedly he's not running for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008, without ever closing that door completely.

He was the Democratic nominee in 2000 and won the general election popular vote. However, Gore lost the electoral vote to George W. Bush after a legal challenge to the Florida result that was decided by the Supreme Court.

Gore called the award meaningful because of his co-winner, calling the IPCC the "world's pre-eminent scientific body devoted to improving our understanding of the climate crisis."

Gore said he planned to donate his share of the prize money to the Alliance for Climate Protection, a bipartisan nonprofit organization that is devoted to changing public opinion in the U.S. and around the world about the urgency of solving the climate crisis.

The last American to win the prize, or share it, was former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, who won it 2002.

The committee cited the IPCC for its two decades of scientific reports that have "created an ever-broader informed consensus about the connection between human activities and global warming. Thousands of scientists and officials from over 100 countries have collaborated to achieve greater certainty as to the scale of the warming."

It went on to say that because of the panel's efforts, global warming has been increasingly recognized. In the 1980s it "seemed to be merely an interesting hypothesis, the 1990s produced firmer evidence in its support. In the last few years, the connections have become even clearer and the consequences still more apparent."

"It was a surprise," said Carola Traverso Saibante, spokeswoman for the IPCC. "We would have been happy even if (Gore) had received it alone because it is a recognition of the importance of this issue."

But some questioned the prize decision.

"Awarding it to Al Gore cannot be seen as anything other than a political statement. Awarding it to the IPCC is well-founded," said Bjorn Lomborg, author of "The Skeptical Environmentalist."

He criticized Gore's film as having "some very obvious mistakes, like the argument that we're going to see six meters of sea-level rise," he said.

"They (Nobel committee) have a unique platform in getting people's attention on this issue, and I regret they have used it to make a political statement."

This year, climate change has been at the top of the world agenda. The U.N. climate panel has been releasing its reports; talks on a replacement for the 1997 Kyoto Protocol on climate are set to resume; and on Europe's northern fringe, where the awards committee works, concern about the melting Arctic has been underscored by this being the International Polar Year.

Jose Manuel Barroso, president of the European Commission, said the prize would help to continue the globally growing awareness of climate change.

"Their contributions to the prevention of climate change have raised awareness all over the world. Their work has been an inspiration for politicians and citizens alike," he said in a statement.

In recent years, the Norwegian committee has broadened its interpretation of peacemaking and disarmament efforts outlined by Swedish industrialist Alfred Nobel in creating the prize with his 1895 will. The prize now often also recognizes human rights, democracy, elimination of poverty, sharing resources and the environment.

"We believe that the Nobel Committee has shown great courage by so clearly connecting the climate problems with peace," said Truls Gulowsen, head of environmental group Greenpeace Norway.

The Nobel Prizes each bestow a gold medal, a diploma and a $1.5 million cash prize on the winner.

Boy was that ever an understatement.   Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

In another news article the following was reported:

Quote
Gore said in a statement he was "deeply honored" to win the prize.

"The climate crisis is not a political issue, it is a moral and spiritual challenge to all of humanity," Gore said in comments e-mailed by his office 44 minutes after the prize was announced at 5 a.m. Eastern time. "It is also our greatest opportunity to lift global consciousness to a higher level."

He contradicts himself here as he says it is not a political issue and then he uses the statement "lift global consciousness to a higher level" which terminology used frequently to indicate a one world government.

I’m with the Czech President on this:

Quote
    “The relationship between his activities and world peace is unclear and indistinct,” the statement said. “It rather seems that Gore’s doubting of basic cornerstones of the current civilization does not contribute to peace.”

    Klaus said in a recent speech that environmentalists’ efforts to halt global warming “fatally endanger our freedom and prosperity.”

Think tank to Academy: Withdraw Gore's Oscar 
Cites court decision pointing out 11 inaccuracies, situation like sports stars found to be 'cheats'

On the eve of Al Gore's award of the Nobel Peace Prize, a think tank wrote the president of the Academy Awards asking that the Oscar given to his film "An Inconvenient Truth" be taken back in response to a British High Court ruling that found 11 serious inaccuracies in the documentary.

Muriel Newman, director of the New Zealand Centre for Political Research, told Academy President Sid Ganis and Executive Director Bruce Davis "the situation is not unlike that confronting sports bodies when their sports stars are found to be drug cheats."

"In such cases, the sportsmen and women are stripped of their medals and titles, with the next place-getter elevated," she said, according the Australian Associated Press. "While this is an extremely unpleasant duty, it is necessary if the integrity of competitive sport is to be protected.

British High Court judge Michael Burton ruled Wednesday Gore's documentary should be shown in British schools only with guidance notes to prevent political indoctrination. The decision followed a lawsuit by a father, Stewart Dimmock, who claimed the film contained "serious scientific inaccuracies, political propaganda and sentimental mush."

(Story continues below)

The Nobel panel announced today Gore won the peace prize along with the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change for their efforts to spread awareness of "man-made climate change" and to lay the foundations for fighting it.

But Newman, the AAP reported, pointed to the British ruling, which requires teachers to tell students of 11 inaccuracies in Gore's film.

"The truth, as inconvenient as it is to Al Gore, is that his so-called documentary contained critical distortions that are quite contrary to the principles of good documentary journalism," Newman said. "Good documentaries should be factually correct. Clearly this documentary is not."

Gore's movie required viewing for city employees 
Lawmakers blast 'political propaganda': 'This is about wasting taxpayer dollars'

Some of the first City of Albuquerque employees required to view excerpts from Al Gore's movie on global warming as part of a mandatory morning-long seminar on energy efficiency are telling elected officials they feel like they were forced to watch "political propaganda."

"An Inconvenient Truth," considered scientifically suspect and alarmist by its critics, won the 2007 Academy Award for best documentary and paved the way for the former U.S. vice president to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize yesterday.

This week's Albuquerque seminar, the first planned for the city's 6,500 employees, was held for blue-collar and clerical workers. The session ran from 8:30 a.m. to noon and included about 50 minutes of excerpts from the Gore movie.

"I think it's probably a waste of employees' time," City Councilor Sally Mayer, a Republican, told the Albuquerque Journal.

A constituent who is also a city employee called her to complain.

"He was livid, and he said, 'I can't believe they took three and half hours of my morning and made me watch the movie,'" Mayer said.

Mayer was not alone in fielding complaints from angry employees.

"I had no idea about it until I got a call from a city employee who was absolutely outraged he had to sit in on a political propaganda videotape from Al Gore," Councilor Brad Winter told the Albuquerque Tribune. "It's totally ridiculous to me. It's a waste of time and taxpayer money."

Council President Debbie O'Malley also said she received calls over the mandatory viewing.

Defending the sessions was Mayor Martin Chavez who said the training seminars were meant to help employees learn how to use energy in city buildings more efficiently.

The controversy over the mandatory seminars comes the same week a British judge identified 11 errors in "An Inconvenient Truth" that must be identified with a disclaimer before the Gore movie can be used in British classrooms. WND reported a New Zealand think tank has written the president of the Academy Awards asking that the Oscar given to the film be taken back in response to the ruling.

Patricia Miller, the city's director of human resources, said 40 minutes of the Gore film were edited out so employees would see only the "scientific portions." Miller said her staff developed the "lesson plan" with the goal of giving workers background in the science of global warming.

"We're not trotting them in there to watch an entire movie. It is a piece of their training followed by a presentation on the city's programs that are available to everyone," Miller said. "We then go into breakout sessions and work with the employees and generate their ideas on how they can make a difference in their work environment."

Although attendance at the sessions are identified as mandatory, Miller said any employee who had a problem could opt out without any repercussions.

"If somebody had a huge issue with the whole concept or the philosophy, we wouldn't force them to go through it," Miller told the Tribune. "What would be the point?"

Councilor Mayer linked showing of the movie to the mayor's political ambitions. Chavez is currently a frontrunner for the Democrat U.S. Senate nomination in New Mexico.

"I believe this is so the mayor can say he's the first mayor to have all the city workers attend a sustainability conference," charged Mayer. "This isn't a partisan issue. This is about wasting taxpayer dollars."

The mayor disagreed.

"The only political part about climate change is the unwillingness of some in Washington to recognize climate change," replied Chavez. "We'll go with the scientific facts and the cost savings. We'll leave the politics to everybody else."

Chavez's endorsement of the seminars to save electricity was backed by Councilor Martin Heinrich, who is seeking the Democrat nomination in the 1st Congressional District.

"Even if you're willing to put your head in the sand on this issue, it makes good fiscal sense," Heinrich said.

I have no problem at all with trying to be nice to the environment and lowering fuel use. My problem is the total pack of lies from Al Gore. It's not about global warming, rather about over 6 billion dollars in taxpayer's money. Al Gore and his so-called scientific proof for global warming and what causes it have already been debunked as lies. Any person without an education at all could spend a few minutes and come up with BETTER AND MORE ACCURATE ANSWERS THAN AL GORE HAS!

Media's 'Saint Al' mantle consistent with promotion of Gore's agenda, says watchdog

A conservative media watchdog says the recent coverage of Al Gore's Nobel Peace Prize demonstrates the religious fervor of the left when it comes to the former vice president's global warming agenda.

Dan Gainor directs the Business & Media Institute of the Media Research Center. He has testified before Congress on the media's one-sided coverage of global warming, and has followed the media's campaigning for Gore's political cause from the very beginning. Gainor calls Gore a messianic figure to the left.

"They've called him everything from a 'prophet' to what The Washington Post called him on Saturday: 'Saint Al.' They are definitely laying the groundwork for him .... What that means for ordinary Americans is we're all going to pay for it -- and I mean quite literally, it's going to come out of our wallets," he states.

And Gainor says while Gore is out to push his global warming agenda on hard-working Americans, the former VP is not saying a word to countries like China. "Al is a big proponent not just of global warming but of government intervention, at least American government intervention -- not foreign governments, because he doesn't want China or some other countries to do anything to lift a finger. But he wants Americans to pay big-time -- like mandating what light bulbs you can use," says the media watchdog.

Gainor says Gore received the same kind of adoring media coverage leading up to his Oscar award for the documentary An Inconvenient Truth. He says the Nobel Peace Prize win is "essentially a political award from a bunch of foreign lefties who want to stick their thumb in the eye of America."

Roger Harrabin, BBC “Environment Analyst”, claimed that Al Gore was “an environmental science graduate” in a recent BBC article.

I have found the following summary of Gore’s science education:

Mr. Gore’s high school performance on the college board achievement tests in physics (488 out of 800 “terrible,” St. Albans retired teacher and assistant headmaster John Davis told The Post) and chemistry (519 out of 800 “He didn’t do too well in chemistry,” Mr. Davis observed) suggests that Mr. Gore would have trouble with science for the rest of his life. At Harvard and Vanderbilt, Mr. Gore continued bumbling along.

As a Harvard sophomore, scholar Al “earned” a D in Natural Sciences 6 in a course presciently named “Man’s Place in Nature.” That was the year he evidently spent more time smoking cannabis than studying its place among other plants within the ecosystem. His senior year, Mr. Gore received a C+ in Natural Sciences 118….

Another attempt to validate Gore's credibility in the global warming arena and a poor one at that.

Gore graduated in Government, in fact. If anything Gore's education shows that his agenda is purely political.

Al Gore is a rejected carnival act by people with any common sense, but we must remember that big politics and big money is involved. Average and poor people are the ones who are most likely to be hurt with his agenda if it is adopted, and it will do absolutely NOTHING except spend money and put a big grin on the faces of the extreme left. It's almost impossible to imagine that someone got the Nobel Peace Prize for this kind of con game, but we must remember that Arafat also got the Nobel Peace Prize. So, Al Gore is in fine company. I will have to say that Al Gore deserved the recognition from Hollywood but not for a documentary - ACTING! BUT, I don't know if our representatives have the common sense to reject Al's load of baloney, and this is some expensive baloney.

John Stossel Exposes Global Warming Myths

 "20/20” co-anchor John Stossel is going on the attack against “experts” who warn about manmade global warming – along the way berating Al Gore for saying the debate over climate change is over.

In a release from ABC previewing Stossel’s report on Friday’s “20/20,” the veteran newsman and Newsmax pundit – who won 19 Emmys exposing scammers and con artists – says:

“This week on ‘20/20’ (in our new 8 p.m. Eastern time slot) I say ‘Give Me a Break!’ to our Nobel Prize-winning Vice President.

“Mr. Gore says ‘The debate is over,’ and those who disagree with his take on global warming have been ‘purchased’ in order to create ‘the illusion of a debate.’ Nonsense. It's as if the Vice President and his allies in the environmental movement plan to win the debate through intimidation. I interview some scientists who won't be intimidated, even though one has had his life threatened for speaking up.

“The Vice President's much-applauded movie, ‘An Inconvenient Truth,’ claims warming is man’s fault and a coming crisis! While the earth has certainly warmed over the last century, plenty of independent scientists say scientists cannot be sure that man caused the warming or that warming will be a crisis.

“They say the computer models that are used to predict the disasters don’t include important variables because scientists don’t fully understand them. For example, warming may cause cloud formations that reflect sun and cool the earth. The computer models cannot know. These scientists call global warming activism more of a religious movement than science.”

Gore's film is filled with “misleading messages,” says Stossel.

“It suggests polar bears are disappearing and that ‘sea levels worldwide would go up 20 feet.’ I interview children who are scared. They believe the polar bears are already going extinct and that the oceans will soon rise even higher than 20 feet, drowning them and their parents.

“But polar bear populations appear to be steady or increasing, and a 20-foot rise is a theoretical possibility that wouldn't happen for millennia. The IPCC, the group that shared last week’s Nobel Prize with the Vice President, says in 100 years the oceans might rise 7 to 24 inches, not 20 feet. Now a British judge has ruled that British schools must disclose to students nine inaccuracies in ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ if they play the movie in class.”

Stossel said it’s “nonsense” for Gore to suggest that we can stop global warming by doing things like changing light bulbs and driving less.

“The only practical thing we can do today that would make a difference in CO2 output is to launch a major shift toward nuclear energy. But the environmental movement rarely utters the word nuclear.

“I suspect that next year's government boondoggle will be massive spending on carbon-reducing technology.

“It reminds me of George Mason University Economics Department Chairman Don Boudreax's suggestion that such schemes really mean ‘government seizing enormous amounts of additional power in order to embark upon schemes of social engineering - schemes whose pursuit gratifies the abstract fantasies of the theory class and, simultaneously, lines the very real pockets of politically powerful corporations, organizations, and “experts."’

“He is so right. The abstract fantasies of the theory class will soon send huge chunks of your money to politicians, friends, activist scientists, and politically savvy corporations.

“The debate is over? That makes me say GIVE ME A BREAK!”

note: The IPCC is the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. They are assigned by governmental agencies. Some of the IPCC leading staff are not even scientists but rather activists some of which belong or used to belong to Greenpeace. If the IPCC said global warming is wrong then the IPCC would be closed down with all funding removed since it would no longer be necessary to have such an organization.

Global warming to blame for fires, says Harry Reid
To astonishment of reporters, Senate majority leader makes link

Is there a political angle to the wildfires raging through Southern California?

You betcha – at least according to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who said global warming is at least partly responsible for the blazes.

"One reason why we have the fires in California is global warming," the Nevada Democrat told reporters, emphasizing the need to pass the Democrats' comprehensive energy package.

Pressed by astonished reporters on whether he really believed global warming caused the fires, he appeared to back away from his comments, saying there are many factors that contributed to the disaster.

Meanwhile, President Bush has declared a state of emergency in California and sent Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff and Federal Emergency Management Agency Administrator David Paulison to San Diego to assess the situation.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Congress would consider sending more aid to California.

"So far, [state officials] have been able to avail themselves of whatever is available from the federal government," the Northern California Democrat said. "We may have to expand on that as the fires continue to rage."

The California congressional delegation is reportedly drafting a resolution expressing Congress' support for the first responders and pledging to make resources available to help stop the fires.

 Grin   Grin   Grin   WOW! Reid never ceases to amaze me. I've watched him several times on news spots recently and would reach a quick conclusion:  He doesn't lie very well, so he desperately needs acting lessons.
