Al Gore Actually Wrote This Vomit
When Al Gore claimed to have invented the internet, it should have been the end of his political career. And when he lost an almost unlosable race to George W. Bush in 2000, it should have been a signal that it was time for him to go away.
But Gore doesn’t go away. The most prominent liar and scoundrel in the environmental movement, whose champion rent-seeking career as a sky-is-falling huckster and dodger of legitimate debate, has come out with a new book – this one entitled Our Choice. As you might imagine, it’s yet another collection of untruths and misleading claims, only this time it also contains a great deal of flacking for the “alternative energy” initiatives in which Gore is invested – and the Chicken Littles have the stones to say the “deniers” are bought off by Big Oil! – with a general message that we have to choose socialism now or we’re all gonna die. Used to be the socialists would show up with guns and tanks, and demand you adopt their policies; now they bring “science.”
Anyway, this, apparently, is how the book begins:
One thin September soon
A floating continent disappears
In midnight sunVapors rise as
Fever settles on an acid sea
Neptune’s bones dissolveSnow glides from the mountain
Ice fathers floods for a season
A hard rain comes quicklyThen dirt is parched
Kindling is placed in the forest
For the lightning’s celebrationUnknown creatures
Take their leave, unmourned
Horsemen ready their stirrupsPassion seeks heroes and friends
The bell of the city
On the hill is rungThe shepherd cries
The hour of choosing has arrived
Here are your tools
Yes, it’s crap. And yes, my eyes hurt after reading it as well.
Vanity Fair, however, had an orgasm. According to Vanity Fair, Gore is now the “poet laureate” of the global warming movement. According to Mark Hertsgaard, the writer of their review:
“Now, with the publication of his new book, Our Choice, Gore has unveiled a fresh and most unexpected talent: the book’s opening chapter of concludes with a poem he wrote—21 lines of verse that are equal parts beautiful, evocative, and disturbing.”
If you’ve made it this far, congratulations. You may have your antacid now.
A 21st Century Psalm
December 7th has come and past
We must act, before Copenhagen is passed
If that Treaty is law I guarantee
Another occurrence of infamy
As they strip away democracy
We wish to debate the natural state
It was warm for awhile, but cold as of late
The scientist tried to hide the decline
Deny debate through deceit and design
The science was settled and the data deleted
All opposition was effectively defeated
From checking the facts, and results repeated
Who could prove the science was cheated
Man Made Global Warming is a lie
The CRU e-mails and codes do testify
The purpose, a Carbon Debt to apply
Kiss your money, technology and freedom goodbye
The silence is deafening across the land
As the revelations the public now understands
The weathers a carrot meant to disguise
A corrupt agenda before our eyes
And now we see light shining in Truth
Politicians, media, and search engines declare moot
You can glimpse the extent of the hypocrisy
In how they declare there is nothing to see
So much for transparency
Climategate Googlegate Copenhagengate
Who gave you permission to decide our fate?
Censoring discussion denying debate
The Spirit of Truth you desecrate
In all debate Truth intervenes
Asks does the end justify the means?
Demands that honesty remains supreme
That commitments aren’t made on fraudulent schemes
It’s time for the passive acceptance to end
It’s time to stand for freedom as free men
It’s time to expose the lies and deceit
It’s time to take it to the streets
Do not commit sedition do not get jailed
Non-Violent revolutions do not fail
The voice of the Prophets, Gandhi and King
Are calling for you to get marching
Or just sit back and take the vaccine.
