GORES VISIT TO THE HILL
Al Gores visit to Capitol Hill this week left me with the overwhelming impression of watching my social studies teacher dealing with pimply faced know-it-alls in the back of the study hall. Sadly, the Washington "know-it-alls" were ostrich headed GOP climate deniers like Sen. James Inhofe and Rep. Joe Barton.
It was amazing to hear the "tales of a winter colder than the great winter of '29" get trotted out as scientific confirmation to the chicanery of Gore and Company.
Mr. Gore and his ilk have a long road ahead, but hopefully more ears in Washington have started listening...even a little.
