He is is he? Someone better tell him he needs to announce his candidacy and get his ass into the race. He's well behind the other candidate in fund raising is missing out on the priminary jockeying for his party's nomination. No nomination, no running for anyone. Unless Gore announces his intentions to challenge for the Democratic ticket, he's doing nothing. It is highly doubtful he runs, as he's found that he can have a greater impact as a private citizen than he could as a law maker.

Glenn Beck had a panel of people (democrats and republicans) talking about Al Gore's movie, just last week.
Would this be the same Glenn Beck that refers to himself as an entertainer? The same Glenn Beck that has made inflammatory comments directed at Democrats, Muslims, Arabs, Mexicans, women and homsexuals? The same Glenn Beck that has launched a smear campaign against Hillary Clinton and routinely uses information culled from the Arkansas Project (a project exposed as lies and innuendo by those who originally were paid by their RW agents to generate the materials) as his support? Would this also be the same Glenn Beck who is syndicated by Premiere, the same company that gives the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity their bully pulpits to preach from?

He kept saying that they invited people from greenpeace and other green lobby groups and none would come on the show in support of the documentary because of the amount of lies and stretched truths.
The lie you may want to consider exposing is the one where Beck says he invites people on his broadcasts, when he infact doesn't. He has been caught in this lie on more than a dozen occassions, saying he invited a particular person to appear on his program, yet the person in question had no contact with Beck or his production staff.

He talks about how ice in Iceland and Antarctica is falling and melting because of global warming but he doesn't realize, or fails to tell the truth, that is because of calving not global warming. The ice stretches out to far and falls off.
Are you f'n serious? Calving is a natural event, yes, but the rate at which it is taking place is not. When shelves the size of Rhode Island are breaking off from Antarctica, and when Greenland and chunks of Canada are seeing calving in unprescented scale, something is happening out of the ordinary. The problem isn't just the calving of the ice sheet into the ocean, it is also the dramatic decline in glaciers all over the planet. The NW passage is quickly becoming a viable shipping route as the waters are now staying ice free for the most part. Ice breakers are no longer needed to get commercial traffic through the passage for most of the season. This is not a good thing.

Oh, and to tell you how stupid Beck is, and how inaccurate his information is, he routinely confuses Iceland and Greenland and believes they are interchangeable.

Believing this documentary is no different than watching a michael Moore movie and believing everything he says.
Only difference is the data collected by the scientific community to back this theory up. Moore is a popular hatchet man, but Global Warming is an accepted and studied scientific theory. Moore's opinions are one man's. Global Warming is a collective theory.

If simple minded people want to believe everything Gore says that is their problem. I like to form my own opinions and think for myself. If I didn't want to think for myself I would become a jehovah witness
You might want to look in the mirror when you call anyone simple minded. You opinions are culled from the most suspect of sources.
