&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;We need change. Gore for 2008.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;AP - In a tense start to talks on a range of thorny issues, President Vladimir Putin on Friday warned U.S. officials to back off a plan to install missile defenses in eastern Europe or risk harming relations with Moscow.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;China outed a few weeks ago, in some statements about our debt they hold, likely in a hint of what could happen if we do Iran.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Putin, of course, was HERE last spring and speaking hand to god to BoyKing, and now, speaking about the missle defense program.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And stupid USA, we have flaunted Rule #1 In The MidEast-We’ve managed to piss off the Turks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The pressure is mounting and the noose is tightening . .  around our imperial adventurism ran so rampant amuck . . . &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And I’m saying that’s a GOOD thang!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Who would be the VP on his ticket?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Who would you like?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Who would the party like?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Who would Gore choose?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’d WANT Kuch, but Gore would be crazy not to go with Edwards . . . &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Gore/Kuch would cause me to get some kind of political spirituality I’m not sure I could endure. Too intense!! *G*&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-1028884&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Markinsanfran @ 32&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;I saw Al Gore speak in SF, just hours before the Nobel announcement. It was clear to me that he will definitely run. See here for details: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/10/11/19355/049&quot;&gt;http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/10/11/19355/049&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He will run and when he does, I hope that all those Americans disillusioned with the last 7 years of the Bush &lt;strike&gt;Presidency&lt;/strike&gt; catastrophe will stand up and campaign for him.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In a New York Heartbeat!!! *G*&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And thanks SC, and others MarkInSF, for all the latest Gore!!! lol&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Found out the trouble with the poll - there is a separate quick poll for mobile web browsers.  When I voted this AM on my blackberry, that was running against Gore - now that is 56-44 for Gore. The regular web poll is 58-42 for Gore.  Weird!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Go to the CNN poll-it is now running against Al &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am a scientist who has talked about climate change for years in my classes after Gore raised my consciousness with “Earth in the Balance”.&lt;br /&gt;
I frankly get choked up about this prize and the hopeful implications.  Because this has been Gore’s sincere cause and passion for 40 years, I do not expect him to run.  He can do more on this issue without the constraints of the presidency.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The right is not giving up-as we are here and from the letter I got yesterday trying to reinvigorate the ridiculous petition drive on global warming science by Arthur Robinson, fred seitz and crew.  But it is getting much harder to do it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We knew the orcs will eventually get their hands on the CNN poll. But the world knows better.No amount of their “Sieg” will change that. They’ve already lost the battle much like Iraqi “cakewalk” and “being greeted with flowers”. But we know better. Even Rush’s ears quit on him from his excessive bullshit at one time.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Al Gore’s song, to George Bush, today should be(sung to “Don’t you wish your girl was freak like me”)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Don’t cha wish you had credibility like me?&lt;br /&gt;
Don’t cha wish you had respect like me?&lt;br /&gt;
Don’t cha wish you are loved by world like me?&lt;br /&gt;
Don’t cha?&lt;br /&gt;
Don’t cha”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And then stage a comeback and remove the stain that is Scalia, O’Connor, Thomas et al.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;The film claims that melting snows on Mount Kilimanjaro evidence global warming.  The Government’s expert was forced to concede that this is not correct.&lt;br /&gt;
The film suggests that evidence from ice cores proves that rising CO2 causes temperature increases over 650,000 years.  The Court found that the film was misleading: over that period the rises in CO2 lagged behind the temperature rises by 800-2000 years.&lt;br /&gt;
The film uses emotive images of Hurricane Katrina and suggests that this has been caused by global warming.  The Government’s expert had to accept that it was “not possible” to attribute one-off events to global warming.&lt;br /&gt;
The film shows the drying up of Lake Chad and claims that this was caused by global warming.  The Government’s expert had to accept that this was not the case.&lt;br /&gt;
The film claims that a study showed that polar bears had drowned due to disappearing arctic ice.  It turned out that Mr Gore had misread the study: in fact four polar bears drowned and this was because of a particularly violent storm.&lt;br /&gt;
The film threatens that global warming could stop the Gulf Stream throwing Europe into an ice age: the Claimant’s evidence was that this was a scientific impossibility.&lt;br /&gt;
The film blames global warming for species losses including coral reef bleaching.  The Government could not find any evidence to support this claim.&lt;br /&gt;
The film suggests that sea levels could rise by 7m causing the displacement of millions of people. In fact the evidence is that sea levels are expected to rise by about 40cm over the next hundred years and that there is no such threat of massive migration.&lt;br /&gt;
The film claims that rising sea levels has caused the evacuation of certain Pacific islands to New Zealand.  The Government are unable to substantiate this and the Court observed that this appears to be a false claim.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;David,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I will look forward to reading your peer-reviewed scientific journal article disproving human-caused global warming.  If your article successfully refutes 99% of the current scientific literature, I’ll write to Oslo myself and urge them to nominate you for the Nobel.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

The film blames global warming for species losses including coral reef bleaching.  The Government could not find any evidence to support this claim.<br />
The film suggests that sea levels could rise by 7m causing the displacement of millions of people. In fact the evidence is that sea levels are expected to rise by about 40cm over the next hundred years and that there is no such threat of massive migration.<br />
The film claims that rising sea levels has caused the evacuation of certain Pacific islands to New Zealand.  The Government are unable to substantiate this and the Court observed that this appears to be a false claim.</p>
