Questioning The Goreacle ....
as in HOW DARE YOU!

Remember that British judge who found 9 Convenient Lies in the movie An Inconvenient Truth? Well, what the Goreacle and his cronies could not do in court they are trying through the media. In response to their braying, another report has been authored looking at all of the errors in the movie. The article entitled "35 Inconvenient Truths" by Christopher Walter of the Science & Public Policy Institute once again skewers the thought process of everyone's favorite "D" student and First Loser in that Presidential Race, The Goreacle. Here's a taste, but the entire article is, as the British say, a jolly good read!

A spokesman for Al Gore has issued a questionable response to the news that in October 2007 the High Court in London had identified nine “errors” in his movie An Inconvenient Truth. The judge had stated that, if the UK Government had not agreed to send to every secondary school in England a corrected guidance note making clear the mainstream scientific position on these nine “errors”, he would have made a finding that the Government’s distribution of the film and the first draft of the guidance note earlier in 2007 to all English secondary schools had been an unlawful contravention of an Act of Parliament prohibiting the political indoctrination of children.

We now itemize 35 of the scientific errors and exaggerations in Al Gore’s movie. The first nine were listed by the judge in the High Court in London in October 2007 as being “errors.” The remaining 26 errors are just as inaccurate or exaggerated as the nine spelt out by the judge, who made it plain during the proceedings that the Court had not had time to consider more than these few errors. The judge found these errors serious enough to require the UK Government to pay substantial costs to the plaintiff.

Damn facts, always getting in the way.
