Hall of Shame "The planet has a fever. If your baby has a fever, you go to the doctor. If the doctor says you need to intervene here, you don’t say, 'Well, I read a science fiction novel that tells me it’s not a problem,'" Gore told House lawmakers. "If the crib’s on fire, you don’t speculate that the baby is flame retardant. You take action."
Partisan Bickering Marks Al Gore Appearance in Congress
For Global Warming Hearing
"Beginning very soon after the attacks of 9/11, President Bush made a decision to start mentioning Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein in the same breath in a cynical mantra designed to fuse them together as one in the public's mind,"
"He betrayed this country!"
"He played on our fears! He took America on an ill-conceived foreign adventure dangerous to our troops, an adventure pre-ordained and planned before 9/11 ever took place!"
"It is not a minor matter to take the loyalty and deep patriotic feelings of the American people and trifle with them." Then he screamed, "The truth shall rise again!"

"While President Bush likes to project an image of strength and courage, the real truth is that in the presence of his large financial contributors, he is a moral coward," said Gore.

bitterly cold NYC
"Any child born into the hugely consumptionist way of life so common in the industrial world will have an impact that is, on average, many times more destructive than that of a child born in the developing world." "How do we use the power of technology without adapting to it so completely that we ourselves behave like machines lost in the levers and cogs, lonesome for the love of life, hungry for the thrill of directly experiencing the vivid intensity of the ever-changing moment? Earth in the Balance
"The president succeeded during the election campaign in convincing a majority that Saddam Hussein and al-Qaida are practically the same thing ... but he convinced the majority of something that is not true and is not backed up by any evidence that I am aware of."

"I
think the country is headed in the wrong direction economically, environmentally,
in our health care policy and in our foreign policy," Gore said. "By almost every objective measure we've lost significant ground in the last two years." November 20, 2002 By John Whitesides, Political Correspondent http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20021121/ts_nm/politics_gore_dc_2
Al
Gore says he now favors "single-payer" national health coverage,
a proposal that would
require a massive change in the health insurance system. With single-payer coverage, money to pay for health care— such as insurance premiums and tax dollars — would be collected by a single agency, which would then pay for comprehensive coverage for all citizens.

Gore
said in response to a question that he had "reluctantly come to
the conclusion that we should begin drafting a single-payer national
health insurance plan." Under a single-payer plan, a government agency or trust would collect all premiums and pay all the bills for comprehensive health care for all citizens. The idea, similar to the nationalized system used in Canada, has been kicked around in health circles for decades but has never been considered politically feasible.
