Albertus Magnus Targets “Non-News” Audience

Yes, Virginia. Al Gore has lost his mind.

Politico: Gore launches $300 million campaign By MIKE ALLEN

Former Vice President Al Gore is launching a $300 million, bipartisan campaign to try to push climate change higher on the nation’s political agenda.

The three-year campaign by the Alliance for Climate Protection will begin Wednesday with network television advertising that will include “American Idol” and other non-traditional shows that reach a non-news audience.

Normally I don’t value bluntness, but let’s be blunt here: Gore wants to indoctrinate young idiots. That’s not to say that young people are idiots. On the contrary, many have more sense in their heads than Gore has in his, but there can be no other reason to spend millions on ads that target young people except to mold and bend those young minds. Despite his intentions of advertising to an audience he views as impressionable, it won’t work because American Idol’s audience couldn’t give a fawk about being informed. Hence why they watch American Idol. So more money will be wasted to accomplish little to nothing.

Meanwhile, millions of people have no access to clean drinking water, the most basic health care, etc. Gore’s priorities illustrate ideological blindness.

But at least Gore will feel better about himself.

National review observes:

Gore has repeatedly insisted (and 60 Minutes reiterated the claim) that the public are overwhelmingly with him, and that it is therefore the too-timid lawmakers who must be influenced; but the ad spokesman says it is aimed at influencing the public.

They are indeed walking a fine line here, because for their own reasons they need to say the public is with them: they can’t risk the appearance that Gore seems to bring along with him on this and related issues of being out on the fringe, and also have admitted that people are swayed when they think others have been swayed already. After all, why does someone need to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to remind people how much they agree with them?

Let’s not forget Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth. If that movie did what it was intended to do (i.e., scaring the public), then spending $300 million would be redundant. Apparently the only people who really loved Gore’s inconvenient film are found on the Nobel Prize committee.

Read this Gore quote carefully and tell me we’re not dealing with an obsessed ideologue:

“It’s much more expensive not to solve it,” Gore said. “We don’t have any choice. We just don’t have any choice. I wish I knew a better way to do it. I constantly ask myself, ‘How can I be more effective in getting this message across?’ It’s so clear. It’s so compelling. And yet it takes time to get the facts out.”

Uh, no. Loser. It’s hardly clear and far from compelling. The science does not support you, Al. You’re engineering a global scam that is ultimately about wealth transfer (see the Kyoto Protocol) and making CO2 into a currency.

Gore is correct on one point, however: it does take time to get the facts out, and slowly people are seeing all of this for the hoax that it is.

On a related point, the androids at Google decided to engage in pointless environmental gestures when they blackened their normally white webpage in commemoration of Earth Hour. The global event encouraged people around the world to turn off their lights at 8:00P to 9:00P on March 29th.

“Unfortunately, on LCD monitors sized 22 inches or less, Google’s new black actually consumes more energy than its usual white one.”
