Last night Fox had to say something nice about Al Gore. Why? Because the Emmys were on Fox and he won for his work to merge internet and TV called Current TV. Gore was also nominated for and won the Spanish Nobel Prize, sometimes viewed as the precursor to the Nobel Prize. Another busy week for someone who is not campaigning for President.
Oh yes. He has stated many times (in response to thousands of questions) that he has no current intention to run. He has also said the candidates are not emphasizing the importance of a real campaign to adapt/adjust/slow down the effects of global warming, and he may have to 'reconsider'. Al Gore has certainly done more than anyone else to throw a spotlight on the scientific facts. It's important to stick to the science and the facts when passing judgment and setting policy. Yes, there's some heavy lifting required in that link but that's why it's important to follow the science. Will Al Gore run? I don't know but using his own reasoning, he should. The President of the United States can make a huge difference in addressing the future. That's what's at stake.
What else happened at the Emmy's. Nothing except censorship. Apparently Sally Field said something like (paraphrase)
"If mothers ran the world, there'd be no damn wars!"It underscores a real and present danger. Media in this country routinely censors itself in any number of ways. Withholding stories (including the supposed liberal NY Times and WaPo) misquoting sources, using anonymous sources to support administration positions and more. It's why more and more people turn to blogs to find information.

2. 17,100 scientists that have been verified as physicists, meteorologists, geophysicists, climatologists, oceanographers, chemists, biochemists, etc... have signed a petition against the idea that man is causing global warming. You want to see the petition list? Here it is http://www.oism.org/pproject/ This argument has nothing to do with whether it's "Right Wing" or "Left Wing" this is about science. Al Gore is not a scientist, like it or not, he is a politician.
