Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em
Make it stop! This is so stupid it hurts my head. Drudge is reporting AlGore’s latest message of doom:
GORE: CIGARETTE SMOKING ‘SIGNIFICANT’ CONTRIBUTOR TO GLOBAL WARMING

Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore warned hundreds of U.N. diplomats and staff on Thursday evening about the perils of climate change, claiming: Cigarette smoking is a “significant contributor to global warming!”
Gore, who was introduced by Secretary-General Kofi Annan, said the world faces a “full-scale climate emergency that threatens the future of civilization on earth.”
What percentage of global warming is directly attributable to hot air?
This whole thing reminds me of John Prine’s Bottomless Lake lyrics:
We are falling down
Down to the bottom of a hole in the ground
Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em
I’m so scared I can hardly breathe.
Indeed.

I know I couldn’t believe it when I read it. Just think he could have been our President. On a certain level, its sad to watch a man lose it in public. A serious topic has been reduced to something that reads like satire by a man who sounds unstable.
