Maggie's Farm

Copied this comment from smalldeadanimals yesterday NJ. Said it was a snip from the Montreal Gazette. Have not seen reports about this anywhere else. Algore is training his minions to do his bidding in the war against glowball warming. I am enlisting for the opposite side as I am very much in favor of warming. Hard to believe that so many Northerners can be convinced it is a bad thing. And that the governments, led by Algore, will fix the climate by changing it back. hahaha. What a scwewy world.

"The former vice-president of the United States received a standing ovation as he walked into a crowded ballroom at the Hyatt Regency Hotel around 8 a.m. The 220 taking tutelage from Gore come from all parts of Canada. There was simultaneous translation offered to francophones who don't understand English. The training sessions, from which media were excluded, are said to stress the importance of using a slide show to help build an argument in favour of the idea of carbon taxes. Gore called Quebec "the natural place" to hold his seminars at a private gathering Friday night, calling the province "the environmental conscience of Canada." Quebec became the first province in Canada to levy a carbon tax last October. After making its debut at the Sundance Film Festival in 2006, An Inconvenient Truth has become one of the most influential documentaries of the modern media age. Gore, argues in the movie that global warming isn't just a political issue, it's a moral issue. Gore said nations need to put "an economic cost" on global warming through carbon taxes in order to deal with the problem of global warming most effectively. The 220 people are expected to go home and start presenting the adapted slide show in their own communities. There are another 1,000 slide show presenters in the U.S., and 800 others elsewhere in the world. The 2,000 are all part of the Gore-inspired Climate Project, based in Nashville, Tennessee, Gore's home state."

And this comment is copied from sda too...

MR. oz from Canada asks "Is it the truth that Mr. al gore's electric bills are around twentytwo {22000.00} thousand dollars a month?" The Tennessee Center for Policy Research has said that the gas and electric bills for the former vice president's 20-room home and pool house devoured nearly 221,000 kilowatt-hours in 2006, more than 20 times the national average of 10,656 kilowatt-hours. One of Gore's media stooges tried to deflect the issue by saying that Gore “purchase offsets for their carbon emissions to bring their carbon footprint down to zero.” But that claim is crap. Gore doesn’t purchase carbon offsets out of his own pocket and the actual economic cost, if any, to him is unknown. The actual offset purchaser is a London-based investment firm, Generation Investment Management (GIM), that AL GORE CO-FOUNDED with former Goldman Sachs executive David Blood and others in 2004.

Thanks NJ. Not sure about the info. Must be double checked. Blood and Gore seems almost too good to be true.

Have noticed in the press that when a Republican or conservative mentions Canada he will be excoriated for interfering in outside affairs. The Left, however, are free to trade. Algore and Bill Clinton and James Carville "interfere" and charge big money for it too. Do not believe the Greens have ever elected anybody to a federal office in NA but they are given (have taken) a large political role. Think we can thank the UN and the EU for that. Might even accept their elitism if they were not proven so very wrong, so many times. Guess it is an issue of leadership or maybe a lack thereof.

Speaking of leadership, heard a snippet of Jon Cary speaking about an Iraq withdrawal. Was a disconcerting deja vu. Winter Soldier all over again. When do we get to the part about what happened after the US withdrew from Vietnam? Think that with Jon Cary and his current crew, that would be never.
