Conservative Rumblings

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A resolution urging the creation of statues to be built on the Tennessee Capitol grounds of the state’s two Nobel Peace Prize winners, Al Gore and Cordell Hull, is on its way to a full Senate vote.

The Senate State and Local Government Committee on Tuesday advanced the measure supporting the privately funded statues on a 9-0 vote. The resolution previously passed in the House unanimously.

Gore was awarded his Nobel prize in 2007 for his work on global warming, while Hull received the award in 1945 for his role in creating the United Nations and improving international trade relations.

I wonder which Algore the statue will resemble, though. There are many to choose from: Smug VP Gore, Bellowing Ex-VP Gore, Sore Loser Gore, Scissors Lift to Hell Gore, Doing the TV Rounds Eye Twitch Gore or, my personal favorite, Unshaven Tree Hugging Madman Gore.

I’m really pulling for Madman Gore.

Just when I thought that Obama couldn’t get more extreme, he makes a “commitment” to AlGore to have him at the table to discuss and find solutions to “global warming.”

WALLINGFORD, Pa. - Democrat Barack Obama said Wednesday he talks regularly with former vice president Al Gore and would consider putting him in a Cabinet-level position or higher.

A woman at a town hall asked the Illinois senator if elected president would he consider tapping the former vice president for his Cabinet, or an even higher level office, to address global warming.

“I would,” Obama said. “Not only will I, but I will make a commitment that Al Gore will be at the table and play a central part in us figuring out how we solve this problem. He’s somebody I talk to on a regular basis. I’m already consulting with him in terms of these issues, but climate change is real. It is something we have to deal with now, not 10 years from now, not 20 years from now.”

So he wants to put AlGore as a cabinet member or “higher,” i.e. Vice-President.

You mean, this Al Gore? The hypocrite Al Gore? The lying, exaggerating Al Gore?

Sure, let’s put him in office again and make his fear-mongering a government supported policy.

Although, that may not even be the scariest part of the article:

Obama said he would use Gore to help forge a cap-and-trade system for carbon emissions designed to lower pollution.

Again with the carbon credits! The enviro-nuts just don’t stop! It’s bad enough when it’s just a few maniacs out running around screaming their poor heads off, but when someone running for president is all on board with it…that’s frightening.
