Stuck on Stupid

We've been hearing about a global warming crisis for over 30 years, and the conventional wisdom of the MSM left is trotting out yet another series of hyped stories featuring Al Gore and his movie. Gore has now been joined by Bill, I imagine to keep Hillary's hand in with the eco-fascists.

Fortunately we do actually have scientists in this country who know what they are talking about. MIT professor Richard S. Lindzen, WSJ:
A general characteristic of Mr. Gore's approach is to assiduously ignore the fact that the earth and its climate are dynamic; they are always changing even without any external forcing. To treat all change as something to fear is bad enough; to do so in order to exploit that fear is much worse. Regardless, these items are clearly not issues over which debate is ended -- at least not in terms of the actual science.

Some of us recall that Mr. Gore, after Harvard, attempted Divinity School and Law School, finishing neither, and eventually became a politician. If he is going to keep haranguing us on this subject, perhaps he should go back to school.
