How does the term "Cold day in hell" relate to Global Warming?. It doesn't exist and neither will any opportunity for Al Gore and Czech President Klaus to debate the merits of Global Warming.

When Al Gore is challenged about his belief, he attacks the credibility of the accuser rather than the basis of the argument.

Yeah, as dangerous as these modern-day cows are, we should be sending them over to Afghanistan or Iraq...

I'm glad my dad only had the old-fashioned kind of cows when I was a kid... they weren't anywhere near as dangerous as the ones the media interview nowadays.

I have an "Inconvenient Truth" for Al Gore (the most recent in a long line of undeserving Nobel 'laureates', including the terrorist Yasser Arafat). Global temperatures as reported by NASA and the IPCC have not risen at all since 1998.

Not to mention this:

mad hatter syndrome is a relic phrase that refers to the symptoms of mercury poisoning. What will we call it this century? Perhaps tree huggers syndrome or green gore syndrome
