With the recent fires in Southern California finally contained, global warming junkies are beginning to say “I told you so.” I, for one, believe that this so-called “global warming” played no part at all in these events. As a matter of fact, I believe that Al Gore himself – creator of the global warming fad – is either indirectly or directly responsible. Yes, I said it. With all the hype he’s generated about global warming, he has in turn created a cult of followers who may or may not be familiar with science. Like any cult, they are likely to go to extremes to support a belief, which in this case means attempting to falsely persuade skeptics of global warming’s existence by igniting an elaborate series of forest fires in conveniently windy conditions.
Also, although it is somewhat improbable, we must not eliminate the possibility that Al Gore may have hired individuals to start the fires, thus seizing an opportunity to generate more publicity for himself. As the strong winds caused by global warming unrelentingly fueled the destruction of our nation’s forests and cities, we must now turn to the omniscient and omnipotent Al Gore to save us from the end of human civilization as we know it (pardon my sarcasm). With all of the money and publicity Al Gore is receiving lately, it is hard to believe that his incentives are genuinely good. Perhaps he believes he will someday have a second shot at being elected president of the United States, this time strictly by means of pathos. In my eyes, this man is conniving and dangerous. He is perhaps a larger threat to America than Osama bin Laden. Deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize? I think not.
