It seems the uncertainty about Copenhagen is growing. When Al baby pulls the plug, you know it’s hosed.
From Berlingske: Al Gore cancels lecture during COP15

Looks like they will get a refund though. Might be worth more as a collectors item in ten years though.
I wonder how many people have shelled out $1200 to shake Al’s hand? Maybe not enough and he couldn’t cover the expenses for his private jet?
From the Washington Post:
“Have you ever shaken hands with an American vice president? If not, now is your chance. Meet Al Gore in Copenhagen during the UN Climate Change Conference,” notes the Danish tourism commission, which is helping Mr. Gore promote “Our Choice,” his newest book about global warming in all its alarming modalities.
“Tickets are available in different price ranges for the event. If you want it all, you can purchase a VIP ticket, where you get a chance to shake hands with Al Gore, get a copy of Our Choice and have your picture taken with him. The VIP event costs DKK 5,999 and includes drinks and a light snack.”
Wait, what? How much is that in American dollars? The currency conversion says it all, too: 5,999 Danish kroners is equivalent to $1,209.
“If you do not want to spend that much money, but still want to hear Al Gore speak about his latest book about climate challenges, you can purchase general tickets, ranging in price from DKK 199-1,499 depending on where in the room you want to sit,” the practical Danes advise. “There will be large screens, so that everyone will get a good view.”
Yah, such a deal.

We got the NWO control freak Globalists by the balls and the many hands clinching those balls reach into many avenues of complicit criminal activity from the news networks to the public officials also accomplices to the fraud. WE will continue clinching those balls and squeeze firmly till they all burst.

Too funny 😀

LOL, this is funny, Al Gore on Watt’s Up With That TV Show.

Academy voters Roger L. Simon and Lionel Chetwynd call on the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to rescind Al Gore’s award.

Why are we not going after this crook harder than we are. Lots of fun poking and smear but who is putting his ass on the burner! Is he being investigated! Here is a tasty morsel for ya.

Dutch: Gore Wrong on Snows of Kilimanjaro

It would be more fun to stick my hand in the garbage disposal and that’s free.
The cover of the November issue of the Costco Connection featured a picture of the much sought after, bulbous Algore, suitable for framing.
Inside the covers, three pages were devoted to Algore’s climate science.
This issue of the Costco Connection evoked an email-to-the-editor response.
One email suggested a contrarian response by a skeptic such as Dr. Fred Singer.
The editor complied with an interview with Dr. Singer on the subject of climate for the December issue of the Costco Connection. Dr. Singer’s interview covered the bottom two fifths of one page. This seems at first, unfair. However, Dr. Singer easily refuted Algore’s propaganda and got a plug in for http://www.nipccreport.org.

Please, folks, no more Hitler-in-the-bunker videos!
Singing Hitlers, dancing Hitlers, juggling Hitlers. I’m all Hitlered out.
All future Hitlers will be consigned to the dustbin of the delete barrel.
Hey Anthony,
You get access to Copenhagen and blog while you are there and I will gladly kick in a donation to help with the cause. Then we are sure to get the truth. What are the chances?

Have leading climate scientists been manipulating data, lying and deleting emails to strengthen the case for global warming? Sceptic Christopher Monkton and campaigner Phil Thornhill debate.
BBC Radio debate last night.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00p36pz#p005fqrd
Starts at 7:41, probably only available for UK listeners.
The cracks are definitely showing if this sort of debate is now being “allowed” on the BBC.

MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY and PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!
No HItlers? Does that mean singing, dancing, juggling, stiff-arm saluting, goose-stepping, doom-saying ManBearPigs are out as well?
[REPLY – Manbearpig is on the guest list. Hitler is out. I was beginning to get a twitch in my right shoulder. ~ Evan]
The Danish Tourism Commission may offer attendees the option of either a refund or paying an additional 5,999 kroners, plus value added tax for Al Gore’s absence. Those who choose the latter option will now get a full four course lunch, since the DTC no longer has to feed Big Al.
Some of the most cogent, biting, and humorous comments I’ve read lately. I haven’t laughed so much in a long time. Keep up the good work everyone.
RE: Phil M.
Maybe he does not like the look of the google trends.
Some people are searching for “climate gate”, two words.
Damn Andrew, you are right. It’s WORSE THAN I THOUGHT!
x (13:07:07) : “Ok, someone fill me in. What happened to Al Gore in Chicago that spooked him?”
I’m not sure. It seems to be unsubstantiated, but there’s a rumor that he made an appearance at a book signing and not one but several people failed to give him an Obama bow and kiss his feet.
AC (10:28:47) : “Al looks like the Devil himself in that picture. It’s really eerie.”
Dang! You’re right, AC. I thought the same thing. Time for a Photoshop™ version with horns and a tail.
Ahhhh! Dr. Strange Glove syndrome.
What General Jack D. ManBearPig should have said about Copenhagen:
“Your [denier] has no regard for human life, not even of his own. For this reason men, I want to impress upon you the need for extreme watchfulness. The enemy may come individually, or in strength. He may even appear in the form of our own troops. But however we must stop him. We must not allow him to gain entrance to this [conference]. Now, I’m going to give you THREE SIMPLE rules: First, trust NO one, whatever his uniform or rank, unless he is known to you personally; Second, anyone or anything that approaches within 200 yards of the perimeter is to be FIRED UPON; Third, if in doubt, shoot first then ask questions later. I would sooner accept a few casualties through accidents rather losing the entire [conference] and its personnel through carelessness. Any variation of these rules must come from me personally. Now, men, in conclusion, I would like to say that, in the two years it has been my privilege to be your commanding manbearpig, I have always expected the best from you, and you have never given me anything less than that. Today, the [world] is counting on us. We’re not going to let them down. Good luck to you all. “
Bwahahahaha !
[snip – Sorry, but that encouragement is explicit grounds for nonpayment. So I can’t let that stand. (Not that I don’t sympathize with the sentiment.) ~ Evan]
Do you think if we sent a petition to Al Gore, along with our checks of course, he might relent and deign to speak to us?
As an added incentive we could provide him with a one horse open sleigh.
A reader at Washington Times knows why he had to cancel:
“Unfortunately it is due to a family illness. Mental illness. His.”
