Bush snubs Gore film on global warming

Bush snubs Gore film on global warming
Associated Press

CHICAGO - Is President Bush likely to see Al Gore's documentary about global warming?

"Doubt it," Bush said coolly Monday during a visit to Chicago.

Bush has had bitter disagreements with Gore about the environment and other issues. Bush defeated Gore, then the Democratic vice president, in a disputed presidential election that was finally settled by the Supreme Court in 2000.

Gore's documentary chronicles his efforts to bring greater attention to the dangers of climate change.

"New technologies will change how we live and how we drive our cars which all will have the beneficial effect of improving the environment," Bush said. "And in my judgment we need to set aside whether or not greenhouse gases have been caused by mankind or because of natural effects and focus on the technologies that will enable us to live better lives and at the same time protect the environment."

46. CO2: Some call it pollution we call it life....

Once somebody tried to tell me that I could die if I held my head underwater for too long. I said they were wrong because water gives us life. When I tried to prove my point though somebody pulled my head out of the water and rushed me to the doctor. The doctor said I had brain damage, but they based that information on science. The Bush administration always told me to ignore science and listen to the Competitive Enterprise Institute instead.

My point is just to ignore the facts and accept that all life giving substances are good for you no matter what quantities they are consumed in.

Chimpy, you can't make legitimate judgments without facts.

Sure, you can make DECISIONS- or PRETEND to make them- but a whole lot of the time you're going to end up making the wrong ones.

14. Geez, stop being so reality based. They make their own reality. Wait,

I think Gore said something about that too in the article:

Speaking Saturday in France at the Cannes Film Festival about global warming, Gore said, "I even believe there is a chance that within the next two years, even (President) Bush and (Vice President) Dick Cheney will be forced to change their position on this crisis," he said. "One can only attempt to create one's own reality for so long. Reality proper has a way of insisting itself upon you."

20. BUSH DEFEATED GORE IN WHAT F'ING ALTERNATE REALITY?

Edited on Mon May-22-06 01:52 PM by IndyOp

Gore's Victory
by Robert Parry

So Al Gore was the choice of Florida’s voters -- whether one counts hanging chads or dimpled chads. That was the core finding of the eight news organizations that conducted a review of disputed Florida ballots. By any chad measure, Gore won.

Gore won even if one doesn’t count the 15,000-25,000 votes that USA Today estimated Gore lost because of illegally designed “butterfly ballots,” or the hundreds of predominantly African-American voters who were falsely identified by the state as felons and turned away from the polls.

Gore won even if there’s no adjustment for George W. Bush’s windfall of about 290 votes from improperly counted military absentee ballots where lax standards were applied to Republican counties and strict standards to Democratic ones, a violation of fairness reported earlier by the Washington Post and the New York Times.

<snip>

Yet, possibly for reasons of “patriotism” in this time of crisis, the news organizations that financed the Florida ballot study structured their stories on the ballot review to indicate that Bush was the legitimate winner, with headlines such as “Florida Recounts Would Have Favored Bush” .

The Actual Findings

While that was the tone of coverage in these leading news outlets, it’s still a bit jarring to go outside the articles and read the actual results of the statewide review of 175,010 disputed ballots.

“Full Review Favors Gore,” the Washington Post said in a box on page 10, showing that under all standards applied to the ballots, Gore came out on top. The New York Times' graphic revealed the same outcome.

Earlier, less comprehensive ballot studies by the Miami Herald and USA Today had found that Bush and Gore split the four categories of disputed ballots depending on what standard was applied to assessing the ballots – punched-through chads, hanging chads, etc. Bush won under two standards and Gore under two standards.

The new, fuller study found that Gore won regardless of which standard was applied and even when varying county judgments were factored in. Counting fully punched chads and limited marks on optical ballots, Gore won by 115 votes. With any dimple or optical mark, Gore won by 107 votes. With one corner of a chad detached or any optical mark, Gore won by 60 votes. Applying the standards set by each county, Gore won by 171 votes.

This core finding of Gore’s Florida victory in the unofficial ballot recount might surprise many readers who skimmed only the headlines and the top paragraphs of the articles. The headlines and leads highlighted hypothetical, partial recounts that supposedly favored Bush.

<snip>

At 10 p.m. on Dec. 12, two hours before a deadline to submit voting results, the Republican-controlled U.S. Supreme Court instructed the state courts to devise a recount method that would apply equal standards, a move that would have included all ballots where the intent of the voter was clear. The hitch was that the U.S. Supreme Court gave the state only two hours to complete this assignment, effectively handing Florida’s 25 electoral votes and the White House to Republican George W. Bush.

50. He was of course refering to this:

''We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And
while you're studying that reality -- judiciously, as you will -- we'll
act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and
that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors . . . and you,
all of you, will be left to just study what we do.''
Bush aide to Ron Suskind

25. There is scientific PROOF that greenhouse gases are caused by...

...mankind. Problem is BU$HIT won't allow it to be published. He and his administration DEMANDED that the scientists vet the data through the EPA before they can even publish or publicize it. He and his administration are HIDING the scientific data from the public. It's THERE, from multiple studies and multiple sources.

Facts are FACTS and we already KNOW the FACTS. What monkeyshit-for-brains says at this point, is irrelevant.

Rove told him, "Never show interest in political opposition and their opinions. You being President will weaken their case."

Clinton could pull this off if he wanted to. Bush cannot. He can only throw his weight by breaking the law.

89. I believe Bush is quite correct on that!

Technology will solve most, if not all, of the ruling elites problems of controlling and subjugating the rest of the 99% of the world that is left. This is what I suspect many of his most powerful and wealthy backers are counting on for the future they envision. Need the wars now to start trimming the herds and weakening other countries, as well as our DEMOCRACY, lest the American sheeple awaken and take these fuckers down.

As things stand, the rest of the 99%, all of us, are... fucked!

I happen to live in the south and know that the predominant view held in the north is nowhere near as accurate as they would like to believe. A friend of mine who moved down from New York last year recently said to me..."People up north have a completely wrong perspective on the south these days, you folks are sharp as tacks". I was surprised to hear him say that, and he was dead serious.

51. What a moron! If we don't know what caused it, how can it be fixed?

He is just irked Gore was proved to be correct. Words cannot express what I wish for this chimp in chief. He should get what he deserves! And tenfold. Perhaps he will get to experience a NOLA event for himself , at the very least. His Mommy said it was a step up for most people. Perhaps it would be a "step up" he should experience as well! Grrr.

54. Gore should challenge His Limpness to a public debate on global

warming. I would pay good money to watch Al make mincemeat of him.

62. They should include the Bush quote in the newspaper ads for this film

After all, everything the right hates these days is a hit.

Dixie Chicks #1 on Amazon, Da Vinci Code 2nd biggest worldwide opening ever, and now the Pariah President is sniveling about Al Gore's film on global warming?

Can't beat that kind of publicity.

I don't have a link but a preliminary report links mans burning of fossil fuel to global climate change

70. Bush** - The science on this so-called Global Warmings just isn't there..

That's because you fooking IGNORED, EDITED, or DROPPED the science.

Idiot Son has no business in the real world. He should be on some other astral plane..where unicorn bathe in the blood Jesus while glorifying the virginous virtuousness of Virginity Pledgers.

81. "We will attempt to solve the problem..."

"... without attempting to understand the causes."

Standard Operating Procedure for the incompetent, criminally negligent little Chimp.

94. Duh.

He doesn't even read the newspaper. Bush won't encounter an opposing viewpoint unless he absolutely can't avoid it. Maybe that's why they call him bubble boy...
