Al Gore called Wednesday for "civil disobedience" to combat the construction of coal power plants without the ability to store carbon, Reuters reported.

The former vice president, whose efforts to raise awareness of global warming have made him the most prominent voice on that issue, made the comment during a session at the fourth annual Clinton Global Initiative in Manhattan.

"If you're a young person looking at the future of this planet and looking at what is being done right now, and not done, I believe we have reached the stage where it is time for civil disobedience to prevent the construction of new coal plants that do not have carbon capture and sequestration," Gore said, according to Reuters.

It wasn't clear what specific action he intended by "civil disobedience," which calls for the intentional violation of laws deemed to be unjust.

Since leaving the White House after losing to George Bush in the 2000 presidential election, Gore has turn his focus to environmental issues, a longtime passion. The 2006 documentary based on his lecture, "An Inconvenient Truth," won an Oscar. In addition, he received a Nobel Peace Prize for his climate change work.

Yeah, just think if Al Gore had been elected. Oh, wait, I forgot: he did get more votes than Bush.

No war in Iraq, no mortgage melt down, no trillion dollar deficit, hundreds of young soldiers walking on their own legs instead of prosthesis, a strong military able to stand up to anyone, better air quality, reasonable gasoline prices and adequate supply..... The list is very, very long of what could have been with a Gore presidency. :(

You are so full of it! Just to pick one, how would we have better gas prices when Gore was calling for the selling of the strategic reserves during his campaigning to ease the rise of of gas prices that had started in the last years of Clinton!

Do you have any idea what talk about, I swear you receive talking points from the Liberal loons directly!

After the WTC, Gore would have said, "We are going to do something about that" just like Clinton did over and over.

Everything recently shipped to Canada would be in dirty bomb form today.

You can also bet there is more classified and safeguard info forthcoming. Count on it.

This financial failure that Clinton created would have just happened sooner.

See what already happened on the left coast where Pelosi is? They impeached a dem do nothing governor already and Ahnold took over. Before that they were on the Gore track.

Yeah! And we would have been attacked atleast once since then! And the entire west would be a freakin' petting zoo and park. Gasoline would be over $7.00 per gallon. Our military would have been completely gutted. We would all have free healthcare that sucks. We would all have electric cars that suck. And we would be the laughing stock of the world as a once proud super power slowly faded into oblivion! Gore was just like the clueless bunch leading the dems today..... cept way worse and dumber. Imagine Pelosi+Ried+Obama+Kennedy+stupidity and multiply by 10!!!!!!
Al Gore is a politically correct, hollywood creation, noble putz winner with the personality and charisma of a fence post. His leading our country would be the best way to lose our freedom, our independence, our pride, our security and every rancher and farmers way of life. Triple f must really love his/her country to wish the nightmare that would be a gore presidency on this great land!!!!!! WOW! It's great to have an opinion but his record speaks for it's self. HE WOULD HAVE SINGLEHANDEDLY DESTROYED PUBLIC GRAZING, LOGGING, MINING, DRILLING AND SEVERLY IMPACTED ALL FARMERS AND RANCHERS. SO CHANT PEACE SONGS AND HOLD HANDS BUT DON'T DO IT ON A PRO-AGRICULTURE WEBSITE AND NOT EXCPECT TO GET CALLED OUT FOR IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is America. Triple f has a right to her thoughts, but that doesn't mean her thoughts are right. :wink:

And though you lean a little, leanin' H, thankfully you sure don't lean to the left. :roll: :)
