Projectile Balderdash from Al Gore

Is it just me, or does it seem that every time Al Gore (known to millions of conservatives as simply 'algore' via Rush Limbaugh) opens his mouth he hurls projectile balderdash that defies reason?

The latest memorable quote from algore involves, of course, 'global warming.' After all, it seems the only thing Al talks about anymore is 'global warming.'

Al's latest trip into the realm of psychotic verbiage is his most outlandish yet. He says that not believing in 'global warming' is like saying the earth is flat.

That's funny, because I have been saying all along that the 'global warming' alarmists should join the Flat Earth Society due to their refusal to deal with ALL of the observable data and their rush to accept data that is skewed.

This is of utmost importance in this year's political battle, given that many Democrats are so fed up to the hilt with Hillary and Obama that many of them would accept a ring-tailed baboon as their candidate rather than support either of them.

This is not to say that I think McCain is a ring-tailed baboon, since he has been the beneficiary of the Democrats' woes.

Frankly, Americans are beginning to realize that they really like McCain and really dislike both Hillary and Obama.

Enter Al Gore.

The problem with Gore is that despite winning the popular vote in 2000 (but losing the Electoral Vote) he could not manage a clear, decisive victory in spite of the fact that he had been Vice-President for 8 years.

Further, the Gore record is a trainwreck to most average Americans. He is a rabid anti-gun enthusiast, despite being from Tennessee. He, like Obama and Hillary, believes that government and higher taxes are the solution to all of America's ills.

And let's not forget that should Americans accept his diagnosis and prescription for 'global warming,' it would mean an immediate and draconian change for our way of life from top to bottom.

The government would essentially be telling us what to drive, IF they allow us to drive, what temperature on which to set our thermostats (which may even possibly be centrally controlled by government), and a thousand and one other ways to totally dominate our lives and take away our choices as free citizens.

America needs Al Gore about as much as it needs Obama or Hillary.

A Country on Skid Row

Since the 1930s the United States has been slouching toward addiction. It started as all addictions do, with a sip here and there, gradually increasing the level of consumption, until finally the victim is totally dominated and overwhelmed by the substance.

Many of these wind up on skid row, their brains fried and unable to function logically.

Physicians have a terms for this final phase of the addiction--organic brain syndrome. At this stage brain cells have died never again to be regenerated, leaving the victim with thought processes that have no basis in reality.

Of course I am not suggesting that the U.S. is being ruined by alcohol or drugs. Quite to the contrary. America is being ruined by its addiction to big government.

During the Great Depression President Franklin D. Roosevelt and a Democratic-controlled Congress decided this was the perfect opportunity to introduce big government solutions closely akin to socialism into the American experience.

Ever since that time Americans and the politicians they elect have gradually increased the consumption of big government solutions until now most of them feel as if they are going through withdrawal symptoms if the nanny state is not there to wipe every runny nose, nurse every stubbed toe, and fix every single thing in our lives that is not perfect.

But I maintain it's even worse than that. It would seem a majority (not a big majority, but a majority nonetheless) have reached the stage of organic brain syndrome and are sitting squarely on skid row due to their morbid addiction to big government.

Here are a few examples of the fact that our elected officials, and the people who put them into office, have taken leave of their rationality:

--Congress by overwhelming majorities in both Houses banned incandescent light bulbs, thinking, obviously, that this is a legitimate role of government in the United States of America. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid even stated forthrightly that this sort of thing IS the role of government.

--Although the Constitution clearly states that the right of THE PEOPLE to keep and bear firearms is not to be infringed (which means that this right is to be totally unfettered or unrestricted), Congress has just passed more laws restricting certain citizens from owning firearms--WITH THE SUPPORT OF THE LARGEST PRO-GUN LOBBY IN THE NATION. And don't give me this 'party line' that the bill does nothing and that it is a 'good bill.' To the contrary, it restricts what is supposed to be an unrestricted right. The NRA sold out on this one, to its shame.

--We have millions of people supporting for President a woman who thinks that her 'vast experience' includes the time she spent as the wife of a President, or a first-term Senator who has less than 2 years in office claiming he has 'the experience necessary' to lead America on the world stage. And then we have on the GOP side 'big government conservatives' (an oxymoron) such as Huckabee, Giuliani, and Romney. The best candidates are virtually ignored.

--We have an ambulance-chaser lawyer (John Edwards) who does not believe owning a gun is a Constitutional right but says that having free healthcare and Internet access ARE Constitutional rights. The law school that trained this man should recall his diploma. Yet, like sheep headed for the slaughter, millions of Americans will walk like zombies into polling places to vote for this man.

I could very well go on and on with more examples, such as the indoctrination to which the government educational system subjects our young, the attempt of the Supreme Court to weaken private property rights in favor of local municipalities who collude with big business to take private property, the notion that provisions in the Bill of Rights are not individual rights but 'collective rights,' which is just a code word for Communistic thinking.

You tell me. Does this sound like a rational country to you? Is the majority engaging in logical thinking? Are they even aware that the final rule of law for this nation is the Constitution, no matter what ANY court--even the Supreme Court--says?

I don't think they are aware at all. It's organic brain syndrome. Their addiction to big government has landed them on skid row where tweety birds softly sing their names while they wait for the next handout or the next multi-billion dollar solution to a 'problem,' paid for by confiscating the money of the citizens in the form of taxation.

I am quite certain that we are very close to the need to invoke Thomas Jefferson's 'reset button' where Patriots insure by whatever means necessary that liberty in this country, as delineated in the Constitution, continues unfettered.
