re: #19 Targetpractice

What Gore did was give the deniers a whipping boy, somebody that they could publicly flog in their arguments against actions and legislation they saw as detrimental to America’s “unrivaled” status as the world’s leader.

Anyone who speaks out on AGW gets that treatment: Michael Mann, James Hansen, Al Gore, and on and on.

It has NOTHING to do with Al Gore and precious little to do with the science. This is about politics, money and spin.
