I watched An Inconvenient Truth today and was quite impressed. I had actually read the book that was put out with the movie last summer (it has pictures of all the slides from the movie) but was missing out on the full emotional impact of the presentation by Al Gore.

I think Gore is a smart, witty guy who is the perfect face of this movement to literally save the world. The facts are indisputable and resistance to the truth is just costing us our future as we burn both ends of our environmental candle. I was quite sad while watching this film as I looked back to the 2000 election with a burning "What if?" richoceting around my mind. What if we had chosen wisely. Would we be in this mess right now?

But....enough of that....


On a funny/scary side note some schools (I won't say where as to not offend the idiots that might be from that region) are banning the DVD from being played for their kids. Much like "the theory" of evolution, they believe this documentary is the devils work. Here is a statement from a concerned parent:

You can't make this stuff up!

Al Gore won the Nobel Peace Prize for this piece! Quite an accomplishment. I am watching the press conference right now.

The real entertainment comes from listening to republican pundits talk about the award as they claim:

1. The sun is causing global warming - They are so smart! Ya think it is a factor? lol!
2. The data is wrong as the earth is only a few thousand years old per the bible - ORLY?
3. It is a theory - Just like that round earth one, right?
4, Not everyone agrees - They must have found that cave where the tobacco executives keep their scientists!


The funny thing is, there is an entire network devoted to this parade of idiots...
