Political Quotes

“Madam Speaker, in 2006, former Vice President Al Gore released his film, ``An Inconvenient Truth.'' Now, a decade later, most of Vice President Gore's predictions, inconveniently, have not become true. For example, he claimed that Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's tallest peak, would be snow free within the decade; yet there is still snow on Kilimanjaro year round. Mr. Gore claimed that extreme weather would intensify due to climate change, but even the very liberal Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change found low confidence that extreme weather events would increase in the future. Mr. Gore also, conveniently, ignored the 15-year halt in global warming. A recent peer-reviewed study published in the journal ``Nature'' confirms this hiatus. The only truth is that Mr. Gore's predictions, like those of many climate change extremists, simply have not become true. ____________________”
