I’ll admit, I voted for him in 2000. This was back before he went stark raving mad on “climate change”, and seemed to care more about true environmentalism. But, hey, what we need is yet another old white entitled male to take out Hillary Clinton in the Democratic Party primaries, to use liberal terminology
(The Hill) Al Gore’s supporters have started chatting with the former vice president about a potential 2016 presidential bid, BuzzFeed News reported Thursday, citing an unnamed senior Democrat.
“They’re figuring out if there’s a path financially and politically,†the Democrat told BuzzFeed, which noted Gore hasn’t made any moves toward running. “It feels more real than it has in the past months.â€
ABC’s Rick Klein tweeted that a former Gore adviser confirmed that a “circle of his former aides are talking about” a potential 2016 bid though they are still in the very early part of the discussion.
Gore starting trending nationally on Twitter shortly after the reports emerged Thursday.
This would be awesome, as we’d finally get Gore to debate on his pet subject, “climate change”. For being one of the main proponents of the movement, Gore has been reticent to debate anyone. Oh, who am I kidding, Gore refuses to engage in a debate with anyone on the subject. He’s great when it comes to prognostications and invective, but, he won’t defend it.
He stated that the Arctic would be ice free in 2014. Fail. He pimped the loss of glaciers on Mt. Kilimanjaro as being caused by climate change. That was wrong, because we found out that it had to do with clear-cutting trees. A British judge trashed his movie “An Inconvenient Truth”. He has a massive “carbon footprint”, but wants Everyone Else to be forced to give up their use of fossil fuels. He sold his TV network, Current, to Al Jazeera, which is partially owned by the Quatari royal family. The entire Quatar economy is based on fossil fuels. He jets the world around on private jets. He is one of the biggest climate hypocrites in the world.
It would be fantastic seeing him attempt to defend his climate change beliefs in a debate for the first time. Cult of Climastrology members say they want a debate on the subject for the 2016 elections: I really do not think they’d enjoy the outcome. So, run, Al, run!
BTW, Joe Biden, another old white entitled man is getting closer to deciding if he’s going to run, attempting to take out the woman in the race for the Democrats.
Crossed at Right Wing News.
This just in:
Dr. Ben Carson experimented on 17 wk fetal tissues.
Here’s the abstract from his paper.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1612580
Do you agree that he is a monster?
Wait a minute Ben Carson is a black man….why are you being racist and attacking a black man. I thought all Black lives matter? Does that only mean all Democratic voting black lives matter?
Inquiring minds want to know…..we are all anxiously awaiting the destruction of this mans personal life and career by leftist radicals who pretend black lives matter.
Teach in EVERY YouTube video I have been able to find Gore says it COULD be ice free as early as 2014
However the U.S. Navy said its earliest was 2020 now they are saying 2025, now 10 years might seem far distant future. But it really isn’t
You voted for Gore in 2000?
I can’t recall seeing THAT before?
Do you agree that he is a monster?
Uh, no.
Liam,
Are you really that dense? dave must be your doctor as well as gc’s. What prescriptions is he giving you?
Dr. Carson experimented on fetal tissues, meaning there had to be an abortion (possibly at Planned Parenthood), tissues harvested from the aborted fetus, transferred to Dr. Carson’s laboratory for money. The baby’s brain was dissected out, embedded in media and then sliced into very thin sections on a diamond-knife ultramicrotome. These thin sections of baby brain were stained with various reactive chemicals and observed under a microscope. Dr. Carson published a paper which likely helped him get promoted and make more money.
Is Dr. Carson a hypocrite for conducting research on babies, but now criticizing it, or is has he had a legitimate change of heart?
dp,
So you think those that perform abortion and harvest tissues for Dr. Carson’s research are monsters but the person for whom they harvest tissues is not??
We both know that the left wants to destroy Ben Carson without reservations. They want to drive him into the ground……I would think that you a black man would hold back in your criticism of a fellow black man but of course no.
Politics is more important then anyones personal life…..the same holds true for AGW deniers…….they ruin your lives and careers if you offer up the wrong opinion.
According to your implication anyone on the right who has ever sinned….should never be allowed to hold office. If he ever said something untoward……he should be dismissed. If he fails to live up to the Saul Alinsky rule book…….
you know…………….* RULE 4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.†If the rule is that every letter gets a reply, send 30,000 letters. You can kill them with this because no one can possibly obey all of their own rules. (This is a serious rule. The besieged entity’s very credibility and reputation is at stake, because if activists catch it lying or not living up to its commitments, they can continue to chip away at the damage.)
So the details are still a bit sketchy that is a report issued by several doctors and just what was his involvement? Additionally in the time reference involved the evolution and opposition to Stem Cell Research was still coagulating on the right.
but of course we both know hes an Uncle Tom and should be taken out by the left.

This occurred a long time before stem cell research became an issue opposed by the right.
And Actually this White Conservative would love to see Ben Carson and Carly Fiorinna run against Bernie Sanders and Raul Castro.
two outsiders vs two communists………what a race.
jeff,
I hate to tell you this, but almost all doctors have done something with fetal tissue at one time. If you go into pediatrics, especially surgery, then you usually dissect a complete fetal cadaver. Now, we did this before abortion was legal, it is called a miscarriage. In fact, we had a very large tank in the basement with children and fetuses of various age that were floating in formaldehyde. The fact that you don’t know this or that you think it is some kind of news shows your ignorance, but then you have no problem with that on a daily basis.
So you think those that perform abortion and harvest tissues for Dr. Carson’s research are monsters but the person for whom they harvest tissues is not??
As usual lil’ jeffy makes up shit and gives his little leftist spin. Well fuck you, pervert.
From Dr. Carson:
Today I was accused by the press as having done research on fetal tissue. It simply is not true. The study they distributed by an anonymous source was done in 1992. The study was about tumors. I won’t bore you with the science. There were four doctors’ names on the study. One was mine. I spent my life studying brain tumors and removing them. My only involvement in this study was supplying tumors that I had removed from my patients. Those tissue samples were compared to other tissue samples under a microscope. Pathologists do this work to gain clues about tumors.
I, nor any of the doctors involved with this study, had anything to do with abortion or what Planned Parenthood has been doing. Research hospitals across the country have microscope slides of all kinds of tissue to compare and contrast. The fetal tissue that was viewed in this study by others was not collected for this study.
I am sickened by the attack that I, after having spent my entire life caring for children, had something to do with aborting a child and harvesting organs. My medical specialty is the human brain and even I am amazed at what it is capable of doing. Please know these attacks are pathetic attempts to blunt our progress.
So abortion and dissecting the babies was OK to conservatives before 1992.
Got it. I didn’t know. I thought it was a deeply held conviction based on the Bible.
Please let him run. I can see a TV spot where the Republican nominee is standing somewhere in the Arctic saying “Al Gore is the idiot who said this place would be ice free by 2014. Look, it’s 2016 hmmm.. still a lot of ice.”
You hate black conservatives dont you Jeffery. You cant wait to nail his black hide to the wall…….and you call us conservatives racist and bigots.
Conservatives are a blight on America, and yes I hate conservatives, even if Black. But not because they’re Black.
Do you support a Black conservative even if he is responsible for dissecting aborted babies? Isn’t that hypocritical?
so you admit “HATE” drives you. And this coming from someone supposedly curing cancer.
Do you propose that conservatives should be rounded up and executed? Your mentor Stalin would be proud of you.
What drives me is love for those values and people that modern conservatism is harming – people in the line of fire from corporatism and plutocracy.
Conservatives should NOT be rounded up and shot, but their policy prescriptions DO need to be resisted.
Your mentor Alinsky would be proud of you.
suckingpuppies copied and pasted:
Dr. Carson benefited professionally from microscope slides of baby brains. He was a co-author of the paper. If he was unaware of what was in the paper he shouldn’t have been a co-author, otherwise he’s committed scientific fraud.
It’s OK For A Republican = IOFAR
Where do you think these slides of baby brains, livers and kidneys come from? Amazon.com? No. From aborted fetuses. If there was no demand for these tissues by researches like Dr. Carson there would be no harvesting of fetal tissues.
Bash that black man Jeffery.
Be sure to destroy him because he politically disagrees with you. Your Comrade Stalin would be very proud of you.
You are a racist. Ive known that since about the second week I was at this site reading your ramblings. Your hate oozes from you.
What drives you is hate for all things you disagree with not some noble cause or noble reasoning.
Jeffery I just have to know.
These are serious questions.
1. Do you raise chickens.
2. Did you get arrested and lose your ability to vote for dumpster diving several years back?
Jeffery I can play this game all day long.
People who know me will tell you one thing about me.
I am the biggest A-hole they have ever met in their lives. There is nothing noble about me….special about me…..royal about me. Im not a crusader. I could give a flying flip if your rich or poor. Black or White. Male or Female. Gay or straight. It don’t mean $%^# to me.
there is nothing noble about me…..and my career is not that important that I think it entitles me to anything special. It is a job….I do stuff…….mainly I do stuff so I can have stuff.
I like stuff….Stuff makes the world go around….people like you want to take my stuff away….that annoys me.
So your silly words on a blog make me laugh…they hardly offend me and I don’t entertain thoughts of meeting you in a bar or discussing this like Irrational children on the playground.
Your wrong….I’m right….and NOTHING you will EVER say will Change MY MIND.
And with that…….its back to work for me…vacation is over………I hope my Spanish hasnt failed me since its been a decade since I was in South America.
Liam,
You’re (not your) an a-hole AND now a drama queen too!
It’s not too late to aspire to do something noble with your life, as there’s little nobility in being an a-hole. Be nice to a clerk or a waitress – treat them with the dignity they deserve. Don’t steal. Pay your taxes. Stop lying. That’s noble enough.
I don’t try to change the mind of commenters here – they’re impervious to evidence. But for every commenter like you with weak arguments and cheap insults there are 10 readers who may be open to reason.
Much of the “information” in the right-wing blogosphere and media cloister is actually “disinformation”. Whatever anyone can do to refute this disinformation is valuable.
No and no. Why do you ask?
I may have a warrant for my arrest from a St. Louis suburb for a late paid parking ticket. If I get stopped though, they likely let me go based on my race.
