Merry Griftmas from Al Gore

As if Al Gore doesn’t already have enough money after selling his failed CURRENT TV channel to the dupes at Al Jazeera for a cool half billion dollars, only to have the viewer numbers crash down so low that Nielsen won’t even rate them anymore, we have this shameless pitch from him in my inbox this morning.

Well, at least he managed to squeeze in “Happy Holidays”.

UPDATE: Yesterday we had the ludicrous warmist claim that skeptics are funded by ‘dark money’, “up to 1 billion dollars worth” as pitched by Guardian slime-ette Suzanne Goldenberg (which had to be fixed later) but in this pitch, donations to Al Gore are matched by an ‘anonymous’ donor.

The hypocrisy of these people is breathtaking.

The gooey sentiment makes me want to puke.
But maybe British stomachs are less attuned to transparent insincerity. Was there a picture of a kitten/teddy bear/puppy/Santa as well?
I retch.

Well I do my bit to spread the truth about climate change. It’s not what the scientifically-challenged Al Gore has in mind though.

The word that came to mind was “obscene”.

Climate Reality Project, does that refer to altering reality?

It’s like they’re admitting global warming is so inconsequential, people have to be told about it.

Should not all holidays be happy ? Merry Christmas.

If I send a lump of coal, will it be matched by a lump of coal?

Why can’t he use his own fortune that he has made from the Global Warming scam instead of robbing innocent members of the public? he man should be put in prison.

“Together, we’re training Climate Reality Leaders to go out into the world and spread the truth about global warming.”
This is the language of a messianic, proselytizing religious cult. Clearly as far as The Goracle is concerned, there is no longer any need to maintain the pretense of “Climate Science.” His followers must go out and preach the Gospel of Global Warming to the deluded Deniers, and by converting them “Add new voices to our movement.”
Are there any real scientists who are still taken in by this snake-oil salesman and charlatan?

Yeah, there’s about a foot and a half of global warming in my back yard today.
I have to wonder about the identity of this “very generous supporter” that AG praises. (No clickable link in the PNG image, thankfully.) Is it an Middle Eastern nation state with deep pockets? It might make sense since AG has financial ties with an OPEC dictatorship via his Al Jazeera transactions.

I for one can’t help but wonder if Gore realizes how irrational it is to be both anti-nuclear AND anti-fossil fuels. The so-called “green” energy alternatives can’t (at least at present) meet our energy needs at current consumption rates. I suspect being dependent entirely on those green alternatives would cause our economy to collapse and send the country into social chaos. Not to mention the fact he has the climate change issue totally wrong.
This guy is either totally disconnected from reality or totally devoid of any scruples. Or both. To think he quite nearly became our president some years back is enough to make me cringe. President You-Can-Keep-Your-Health-Care-Plan Obama unfortunately isn’t any better — they are both living in a climate and energy fantasy world of which only they are their ilk can comprehend.
They both deserve to be characters in their own comic book. But I guess that’s what we have Josh for, isn’t it.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Its not a holiday, Its Christmas. Do you wish people “happy holidays” in the summer?
The Idea of Christmas is to give freely not ask

The BigGov as Big Brother and Nanny State memes are alive in this missive. I particularly retched at the “we are smarter and need to educate others” presumption.

December 24, 2013 7:54 am

Somewhat ironic. The previous thread was about a story accusing skeptics of being paid to recite a script. Followed by a thread about an attempt to raise money to train warmists to recite a script.

Who’s the “dark money” doner behind that double your money offer? Does he say?

December 24, 2013 8:01 am

Just another effort by middle eastern empire builders to destroy the west so they can take over the world.
They use our money and politicians to subvert us.
They are too late, the tide of opinion is turning against them. The weather is also turning with wide spread snow in the middle east. The hordes of Muslim warriors, that they have created to attack us, are falling on each other.
Al Gore and his band have lost all respect as he has enriched himself with this foolishness.
Marry Christmas to all, and have an interesting New Year. pg

Jeez, the guy is such a used-car salesman. This outfit is now starting to sound like Scientology.
The climate reality is a cult.

Well, there goes my appetite for Christmas Turkey…..
What sickening drivel from a hypocrite who made his fortune from selling his Global Warming advocacy TV network to an oil monopoly….

1. Who is supplying the match? Why don’t they say?
2. The goal is $100,000 by December 31, 2013 — pretty small potatoes these days.
3. The address is a building across the street from the FBI headquarters. Meaningless but mildly interesting.

“…because truth is on our side.”
Well, is it “truth” when it isn’t based on data, observation, science, or reality?
Perhaps at CRP (pronounced to rhyme with “trap”).

Speed, they won’t need to walk far to investigate. (But we know that won’t happen.)
