An inconvenient truth for Spotted Al Gore

This latest revelation of an inconvenient errrr...truth has government representatives continuing to make up science to create panic to further their agenda.  Al Gore is outed as a complete liar in this episode by citing recene science and facts to prove that polar ice will be gone in 5-7 years during the summers.  The scientist that he quoted rebukes him and he once again skulks away to make up another lie to cover his previous lie. 

Question: Can we believe anything that the government tells us unless we see it with our own eyes?  Otherwise are they just making things up knowing that the American people are too fat, lazy and stupid to think for themselves and will take it at face value?  HEre's the read...

There are many kinds of truth. Al Gore was poleaxed by an inconvenient one yesterday.

The former US Vice-President, who became an unlikely figurehead for the green movement after narrating the Oscar-winning documentary An Inconvenient Truth, became entangled in a new climate change “spin” row.

Mr Gore, speaking at the Copenhagen climate change summit, stated the latest research showed that the Arctic could be completely ice-free in five years.

In his speech, Mr Gore told the conference: “These figures are fresh. Some of the models suggest to Dr [Wieslav] Maslowski that there is a 75 per cent chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during the summer months, could be completely ice-free within five to seven years.”

However, the climatologist whose work Mr Gore was relying upon dropped the former Vice-President in the water with an icy blast.

“It’s unclear to me how this figure was arrived at,” Dr Maslowski said. “I would never try to estimate likelihood at anything as exact as this.”

Mr Gore’s office later admitted that the 75 per cent figure was one used by Dr Maslowksi as a “ballpark figure” several years ago in a conversation with Mr Gore.

The embarrassing error cast another shadow over the conference after the controversy over the hacked e-mails from the University of East Anglia’s Climate Research Unit, which appeared to suggest that scientists had manipulated data to strengthen their argument that human activities were causing global warming.
