I wonder if Obama will create a new cabinet position for Gore? I’m sure he could find a staff, as you can now get a degree in Global Warming from the University of Mumbai.
Gore to Appear With Obama
Former Vice President Al Gore will endorse Barack Obama tonight in Detroit.

FLINT, Mich. – Former Vice President Al Gore will appear in Detroit tonight for his debut campaign appearance with Senator Barack Obama, extending an endorsement and urging all Democrats to rally behind the party’s fall ticket.
“A few hours from now I will step on stage in Detroit, Michigan to announce my support for Senator Barack Obama,” Mr. Gore said in an e-mail sent to his supporters. “From now through Election Day, I intend to do whatever I can to make sure he is elected President of the United States.”

There is no chance that Gore will accept a position in government. If he wanted a government job he would have run for the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination and won it by a landslide. The Goracle is going for the big bucks and any government job would force him to put his large business portfolio in a blind trust.
No way would Gore accept a cabinet spot, too much of a pay cut.
How does this sound?
Obama for prez
Hillary for VP
Al Gore for secretary of global warming.
Ah Jeeze!
I saw an advertisement recently touting a cure for awakeness. I think I may need it soon.
Just what Obama needs — another crazy preacher. Lol!
Give me a break
One’ rection is stuck halfway between “Oi” and “Oy”.
Kiss of death for Obama.
Rico, that’s hysterical! I can hear it already,
“God HEAT America! God HEAT America!
(notice how rearranging the word heat you get the word hate… and he certainly must with all his lies and popaganda)
One heartbeat away from one world government. Shudder, and not from the cold.
Upon reflection on the single issue of AGW this could be the best thing for skeptics. It would force McCain to reevaluate his superficial positions on AGW and would by necessity be forced away from the racial interventionist left.
Bob Barr for President!
You suppose Montana will secede before Election Day? Maybe I can move there.
I suspect that this will be the first and last time you’ll see Obama and Gore together.
Doesn’t England have a spot for a religous leader who at one time was almost as powerful as the King or Queen? Perhaps BIg Al can be the Archbishop of Canwetakeyourmoney.
Cool! Maybe now Obama can do what Gore refuses to do; explain how to correct for the temperature stations at Tahoe City, or Lewiston Maine, or Lampass TX, or Miami AZ, or… or… any of the 87% of bad stations in the “high quality” US network. I hope he doesn’t feed the public the same old line about how they are compared to surrounding stations; “yes folks, here we will adjust the record of this urban station in the middle of the concrete jungle to these stations in the country side… like this one next to the barbecue, or this one in the parking lot… or this one on the roof…”
Where’d that puking emoticon run off to?
I’ve no doubt that if HopeChange wins in November (looking increasing, and frightenly, likely) that the Goreacle will wind up as some sort climate advisor at a minimum. And if that happens, the cap’n tax bill will become but a fond memory of what could have been a preferable alternative.
I just really hope McCain makes a wise decision on his VP candidate. Any of Gov.’s Jindall, Rall, or Palin would be awesome. Choosing any of Messers Bloomberg, Romney, Huckabee, or Leiberman would leave me little choice other than to vote for Bob Barr.
May $diety have mercy on our $internalEssences
Al Gore is possibly the person most responsible for $4+ gasoline.
This was written to several large threads:
Here is another self-serving, very late endorsement that means less than nothing good for the Democrats. Despite the attempts of some, to deify the loser of what ultimately will have proven to be, the most important campaign in our time (2000, not 2008, of course!). Many democrats have always considered that he was a terrible candidate and that judgment has been borne out by events, Gore was unable to swing his home state and now he is a straw-man for a quasi-religious environmental movement that has little connection with scientific truth.
Anthropic Global Warming (AGW) poses a threat to our economy, future energy supplies and perhaps individual freedoms as well. My own support for Obama will not withstand Obama’s full throated support for Gore’s alarmist fictions; I think this should worry the candidate. I voted for him over Hillary, but this involves one of the crucial issues of our time and my vote will be guided by my instinct as to what is best for my country and not guided by a win at all costs democratic campaign that eschews the need to make good legislation based upon reality and not phantoms. The Democratic energy bill, thankfully shelved, was a complete joke and boondoggle, weighted down with earmarks, a disgrace. At the same time the media has done nothing to educate or inform their viewers about the true state of the energy/climate-change debate. Not once have any of you mentioned that Gore is not a scientist and has no such credentials. His Nobel prize is a black mark on that once august body. There is a raging wildfire of controversy over Gore’s so called AGW; an incredible number of scientists object to the whole ‘house of cards’, yet the networks act as if this issue is settled and that Gore’s assumptions and that of his anonymous AGW mentors, are correct; even a very brief survey of the net shows emphatically that this is patently false. I only wish there were enough people who support Obama who could educate him on the realities of these issues, however, I am feeling completely cynical at this point about the stupidity and credulity of the American people!
If Obama lets that man speak one word on his behalf, Obama will not get my vote. He is far more dangerous than any crazy preacher/priest/pastor/evangelical/minister/frier/or televangelist. I didn’t vote for Obama in Oregon’s primary. He has not won my vote yet. This could be the one that leaves me throwing a dart in the booth.
You suppose Montana will secede before Election Day?
To drag back a quote from 1860 regarding SC.
“Too small for a country yet to large for a lunatic asylum.”
That link to the global warming course doesn’t work for me (random Linux, Firefox V2). However, I was able to find it at http://www.mumbaimirror.com/net/mmpaper.aspx?Page=article§id=2&contentid=2008061620080616024120237f8620d45
They don’t offer a degree yet, it’s just a pilot program patterned after programs they saw in London.
I’d be tempted to buy a degree in Global Warming from some degree mill. Perhaps I can start my own.
As for me, I’ll be voting Libertarian.
Reid:
You’re absolutely right, only an absolute moron would put his carbon trading billions in a trust to be in government. Er ,on second thought, maybe your wrong!
I once called myself a liberal because that meant I supported individual freedom. I once called myself an environmentalist because that meant I supported balance between civilization and nature.
I still support individual freedom and balance between civilization and nature. But I can’t support the fascist, one-sided, anti human policies to which these labels now apply.
It truly saddens me that Obama would seek anointment by the high priest of the pseudo-religion of AGW.
My opinion of him is diminished.
imagine this…

Pam,
Thanks for not including “poet”. If Al is dangerous, it is because no one has considered him worthy of attention. I guess he snuck up on us like Hitler did.
Note:
I went to great effort to make sure none of this rhymes.
Oh, the pain!!
