Questions for Al Gore

Below are questions nobody asked Al Gore or as Rush Limbaugh calls him Algore:

During the ice age, Chicago was under a mile or so of ice -- enough ice to form the Great Lakes. Would America and the world be better off if Chicago were again buried under ice?

A 1,000 years ago, well before the industrial age started spewing Co2, Leif Ericson and his Norse buddies were farming on Greenland. What caused the Earth to warm so dramatically then and cool since?

During the 1970s scientists were scaring us about climate change, but it was global cooling back then. If scientists are so sure of themselves, why all the confusion over weather the Earth is cooling or warming within a scant -- by geological time -- 30 years?

Scientists agree -- or to use your term “scientists unanimously agree” -- that Mars is warming at the same time as the Earth. How did the Earth’s manmade Co2 get all the way to Mars?

How much global warming and Co2 emissions do you suppose are caused by the sun at noon during the summer over the Pacific Ocean?

George Bush, who Democrats accuse of being an idiot, got better grades than you did in college and post graduate work. You flunked out of divinity school. What exactly qualifies you to be an expert on anything let alone global climate change?

You actually believe the crap you are spewing; yet you are a massive energy consumer with your two over-sized houses, fleet of SUVs, private air travel etc. etc. I don’t believe the crap you are spewing; yet you expect me to change my lifestyle while you continue to exacerbate the very problem you that you claim is destroying the Earth. Are you the world’s biggest hypocrite? (No doubt will cause Gore to talk about carbon off-sets)

I’m planning to up-grade my landscaping with several trees costing several thousands of dollars. Would you be willing to pay my landscape bill as a means to off-set your gross personal over use of energy or will you continue to only buy carbon off-sets from the company that you hold a personal financial interest in?

Do you support the building of clean, safe, environmentally friendly nuclear power plants?

You have called for a freeze on Co2 emissions in the US. How long can you hold your breath?
