Al Gore … One Trick Pony … Global Warming the Cause as Thousands Dead after Myanmar Cyclone

As the death toll rises in Burma where deaths could top 50,000, Al Gore cannot resist the chance at media exposure. Al Gore, could you possibly have some class? Could we maybe first find and bury the dead in Myanmar before you stick your mug in front of the media and blame the cyclone on global warming? Have a heart and a brain. There is something really inherently wrong and sick about using such a terrible crisis for your own agenda and gain. Might, Al? Way to go out on a limb and say what you really mean. Mr. Blame all on global warming … is it, or isn’t it the cause?

“… we’re seeing consequences that scientists have long predicted might be associated with continued global warming.”

Al … did you know that it was also Global warming that caused you to lose the 2000 Presidential Election.

Using tragedy to advance an agenda has been a strategy for many global warming activists, and it was just a matter of time before someone found a way to tie the recent Myanmar cyclone to global warming.

Former Vice President Al Gore in an interview on NPR’s May 6 “Fresh Air” broadcast did just that. He was interviewed by “Fresh Air” host Terry Gross about the release of his book, “The Assault on Reason,” in paperback.

“And as we’re talking today, Terry, the death count in Myanmar from the cyclone that hit there yesterday has been rising from 15,000 to way on up there to much higher numbers now being speculated,” Gore said. “And last year a catastrophic storm from last fall hit Bangladesh. The year before, the strongest cyclone in more than 50 years hit China – and we’re seeing consequences that scientists have long predicted might be associated with continued global warming.”

In the world of the “One Trick Pony” Al Gore … the cause of everything is Global Warming. Because we have never, ever had a volcanic eruption, hurricane, cyclone, typhoon, tropical storms, tsunamis, tornado or any other natural disaster in the entire history of the earth. But Al Gore knows better and more than all of us and scientists who dispute his notions of global warming and its causes on weather.

Devastation in Hotlanta as Tornado (Storm) Rips Through Downtown Atlanta

A possible tornado has ripped through downtown Atlanta smashing skyscraper windows and damaging trees in the wake of the high winds. Cars in the streets were damaged, streets were littered with debris and several buildings including the Georgia Super Dome, Philips Arena, the CNN Center were damaged as well.

Streets around the Georgia Dome, the Phillips Arena, the CNN Center and Centennial Olympic Park were littered with broken glass, crumbled bricks, insulation and even the occasional office chair. Billboards collapsed onto parked cars. Stunned fans from the arenas wandered through the debris in disbelief.

National Weather Service officials said a possible tornado hit downtown Atlanta, and wind was clocked at up to 60 mph as the storm moved through the city. (Yahoo News)

Drought Conditions in Georgia … Gov Sonny Perdue Prays for Rain

As drought conditions become worse and worse in the State of Georgia, Governor Sonny Perdue has called upon a higher power to ask for assistance. Sunny Perdue has asked President Bush for help; however, the Georgia Governor is now asking lawmaking and ministers to join him and pray to God for rain.

“Christianity has more of a place in the culture here than in some other region,” said Ray Van Neste, a professor of Christian studies at Union University in Jackson, Tenn. “And it’s only natural, in a way, for the public to pray for rain.”

Of course there has been some opposition to the governor’s move to pray for rain from the a secular group called the Atlanta Freethought Society. I guess these people want drought conditions at all cost and would turn down the necessary water if Sonny Perdue, “asked and received”. Why would anyone simply be against asking for help from God … what do you have to fear? Results!

From George Washington, who declared “a day of prayer and thanksgiving,” to Harry Truman, who established a National Day of Prayer, American politicians have not been shy about associating themselves with petitions to the Almighty.
