Gored!

There are plenty of Al Gore critics -- and I concur with a number of their points (see articles by John Fund and Iain Murray).

Part of the problem with Mr. Gore's approach is when he uses information incorrectly (e.g., showing charts of 20 foot sea level increases instead of 2 feet). It's dramatic, makes for 'compelling' story, but then when people find out you've been disingenuous, the message is shot.

So instead of promoting good dialogue, constructive conversation, and solution-finding, you get partisan bickering.
