By webmaster@nationalreview.com (Andrew Stuttaford) Al Gore is notoriously keen on imposing new laws in the interests of fighting ‘climate change’, but to him some laws (or so it seems from this interview with Gore in the Guardian) are more equal than others: And who defines “urgency,” and who “moral clarity,” Mr. Gore?

Al Gore was born to be the most powerful man on Earth, but fell just short of his political destiny. Can the former law-maker now win his place in history as the man who helped save the planet? Perhaps the best way to understand the extraordinary transformation of Al Gore is to study the changi...

He's out with a new book and is on the cover of this week's edition of N...

By Brent Baker “Al Gore laid down a green gauntlet today.” And she couldn't resist reminding viewers that Gore's “environmental work earned him a Nobel prize” before she helpfully cued him up on energy policy: “It really is multi-tiered, isn't it?

By webmaster@nationalreview.com (Clifford D. May) I bring all this up not to criticize Al Gore, though it does seem remarkable that, following this experience, he has made a career - and tens of millions of dollars and a Nobel Peace Prize and an Academy Award -- contending that he has identified the most critical threat confronting us, and t...
