An Insignificant Politician

Al Gore has gone off the deep end. Totally. After so long worshipping the sacred political Brahma of global warming, he's totally lost touch with anything else. Except, apparently, twinkies.
That's not the good part though. As if his fantasy bogeyman 'global warming' wasn't a frightening enough scenario, Al Gore has uncovered an explosive 'new truth.' Never mind vehicle exhaust, cow flatulence, or any of the other 619,233 things we've been told aggravate global warming, there is one factor we never saw coming.

Al Gore, savior of humanity has revealed this truth to the United Nations. I hope you're sitting down, which, since you're on a computer you probably are.


Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore warned hundreds of U.N. diplomats and staff on Thursday evening about the perils of climate change, claiming: Cigarette smoking is a "significant contributor to global warming!"

Oh, come off it Al. Seriously. I'm not a smoker, and I don't really even like to be around smokers since cigarettes make my eyes burn like hell so I'm definitely not saying this for their benefit: Al Gore is full of it and he knows full well.

Then:


Gore had his staff opened a stack of cardboard boxes to begin selling
his new book, "An Inconvenient Truth, The Planetary Emergency of Global Warming and What We Can Do About It," $19.95, to the U.N. diplomats.
