The self-defeating Draft Al campaign is just the tip of the Democrats' woes. Despite numerous polls claiming that registered Democrats like myself are happy with their current field of presidential contenders, Gore betrays subterranean tremors of doubt.
RUSH: I want to play these Algore sound bites again from yesterday. I know we put 'em up at RushLimbaugh.com and Drudge had them up for awhile yesterday. They're all over YouTube. This is just mind-boggling.
Al Gore's home, which has been undergoing renovations for months, now boasts a solar roof. When his neighborhood in Tennessee changed zoning laws earlier this year, Gore was able to go ahead with the solar panel installation.
While natural forces have influenced Earth's climate (and always will), human-induced changes in atmospheric greenhouse gas levels are playing an increasingly dominant role. Melting ice exposes land or water, BOTH of which reflect less solar radiation than ice. That reinforces rising temperatures, which melt more ice.
NBC Universal has landed the U.S. broadcast rights to Al Gore's Live Earth concerts.
Olbermann turned to his guest, former VP Al Gore, asking him whether he agrees with Sheehan. Gore hesitated but finally said that he agrees in part, in that he believes our 'national conversation' is dominated by trivialities and 'very cleverly constructed propagandistic messaging that really doesn't take logic and reason into account.'
The pursuit of 'dominance' in foreign policy led the Bush administration to ignore the UN, to do serious damage to our most important alliances, to violate international law, and to cultivate the hatred and contempt of many in the rest of the world.
Former Vice President Al Gore stopped by Comedy Central's Daily Show with Jon Stewart to plug his new book, The Assault on Reason Thursday night, and, along the way, took aim at the media for not providing all the "facts" about the war in Iraq
I haven't read the thing, itself, but I have now read several accounts of Al Gore's new book, Assault on Reason, wherein he trashes the Bush 43 administration from start to finish, enumerating all of Bush's "lies" and mistakes.

"The solar increases do not have the ability to cause large global temperature increases...greenhouse gases are indeed playing the dominant role...solar variability certainly plays a minor role, but it looks like only a quarter of the recent variations can be attributed to the Sun. At most." --Stanford University
In the book, Gore is accusatory, passionate, and angry. He begins discussing the president by accusing him of sharing President Richard Nixon's unprincipled hunger for power -- and the book proceeds to get less complimentary from there.
"Greenhouse gases are accumulating in Earth's atmosphere as a result of human activities, causing surface air temperatures and subsurface ocean temperatures to rise" -National Academy of Sciences report
There have been claims that warming on Mars and Pluto are proof that the recent warming on Earth is caused by an increase in solar activity, and not by greenhouses gases. But we can say with certainty is that even if Mars, Pluto or any other planets have warmed in recent years, it is not due to changes in solar activity.
Al Gore may be the perfect stealth candidate for 2008, a Democrat who could step into the presidential race when the party confronts its doubts about the front runners. Someone with a message that transcends politics, someone who spoke out loud and clear and early against the war in Iraq. Someone with experience and credibility on the world stage.
Not long before our nation launched the invasion of Iraq, our longest-serving Senator, Robert Byrd of West Virginia, stood on the Senate floor and said: "This chamber is, for the most part, silent-ominously, dreadfully silent. There is no debate, no discussion, no attempt to lay out for the nation the pros and cons of this particular war. There is nothing. We stand passively mute in the United States Senate."
On Monday, Al Gore has a new book coming out next week, titled, "The Assault On Reason". Because he is standing up, telling the truth and because he simply is a Progressive leader, he will be smeared mercilessly by the right-wing smear machine. They will tease and make fun of him. But what they will not do: TALK ABOUT WHAT'S IN THE BOOK.
Evidence that Earth's climate is undergoing significant, and in some cases alarming, changes has accumulated rapidly during the past three decades. The probability is extremely high that HUMAN generated greenhouse gases, with carbon dioxide the major offender, are the primary cause of well documented global warming and climate change today.

She's raised millions of dollars for environmental causes, helped bring Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth from lecture hall to big screen, and used pop-culture channels to spread the word about global warming.
Gore Vidal's take on the upcoming presidential campaign, religion and the future of the American empire
One of the most popular claims made by global warming denialists is that Al Gore has got his science wrong. But read on for the hard science facts that prove he's right.
Throwing a curveball into speculation about both his - and Al Gore's - political future, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg made a provocative comment today about a possible Gore presidential run. "I hope Al Gore enters the race; I think it would be good for the country," the mayor said.
Friends of Al Gore have secretly started assembling a campaign team in preparation for the former American vice-president to make a fresh bid for the White House. One of his former campaign team said: "I was asked whether I would be available towards the end of the year if I am needed."
The cause of global warming is oceans heating, not greenhouse gases, as always occurs at the beginning of ice ages.
Those looking for the culprit responsible for global warming have missed the obvious choice - the sun. Scientific evidence conclusively shows that the sun plays a far more important role in causing global warming and global cooling than any other factor.
BOGOTA -- Former Vice President Al Gore told the organizers of an environmental conference that started Friday in Miami that he would only keep his speaking engagement if the conference disinvited Colombian President Alvaro Uribe, according to Colombian Defense Minister Juan Manuel Santos. Gore withdrew from the Green Forum, organized by Poder
Global warming may not be caused by humanity's fossil fuel emissions, but could be due to changes in the Sun. Research suggests that the magnetic flux from the Sun more than doubled this century. As solar magnetism is closely linked with sunspot activity and the strength of sunlight reaching Earth, the increase could have produced warming in the g
Dr Sami Solanki, the director of the renowned Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research in Gottingen, Germany, who led the research, said: "The Sun has been at its strongest over the past 60 years and may now be affecting global temperatures.
Environmentalism: Gore's carbon footprint may be the size of Godzilla's, but he eases his conscience with 'carbon offsets.' He buys them from himself. And every time someone else buys them, Big Al gets richer.
