I know this will go over with most everyone on the right as something like "Crazy Man writes post touting a crazy man wanting a crazy man to run for president" but I spent some time on it and thought i'd spread it around anyway.

It is surely going to get very old for me to continue to beat the drum incessantly for Al Gore in 2008. In the words of one Desi Franklin, "Get over it".
We watched An Inconvenient Truth over the Thanksgiving holiday and it, of course, rocked. It was nothing I had not seen as I saw part of a bootleg taping of Gore making that presentation a couple of years ago. What I had not seen was the padding of the film. The interludes of him musing on such things as the loss in 2000, his sister's death from cancer and his near-loss of his son some years ago.
The last was, of course, especially powerful for me since I often find myself thinking of my own son when I see situations like that. The fear and dread is palpable for me when I hear of something horrible that has happened to someone else's child.
In the film, Gore talks about these subjects and more in between segments of the powerful Powerpoint presentation that he presents on global warming. These musings are, of course, real not constructed and show that Gore is indeed a real person. Thus disproving one of the lies told by the media in the runup to the 2000 election that said that Gore was wooden.
What I really took away from the film, other than the obvious information about global warming, was that Al Gore is running for president. He can deny it all day and all night but that film is about Gore as much as global warming.
And that's a good thing.
