Bed time stories and politicians

Today we learned that Chicken Little, er, uh, Al Gore has won the Nobel Peace Prize for his work to educate the world about global warming. This is so sad.

I am all for taking reasonable care to minimize our carbon dioxide emissions and conserve fossil fuels. However, to proclaim that anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are unequivocally the cause of global climactic change is incredibly irresponsible. If someone with Mr. Gore's influence and resources really wanted to do something good for the environment and the people that live in it he could take on an undisputed and present problem like worldwide water quality.

Good grief, we are a gullible species. We fell for a lie in the Garden of Eden and just keep falling.

Chicken Little called, he has been offened and expects a full apology.
