Oh Great Goracle… Give us a sign.

In what might become an annual tradition, an ice sculpture of former Vice President Al Gore complete with hot air spewing from its mouth has taken its place in front of Thrifty Liquor along Airport Way in Fairbanks, Alaska.


Via Breitbart

Alaska’s KTVA reported that Local businessmen Craig Compeau and Rudy Gavora contracted the piece from award-winning sculptor Steve Dean and say they’ll keep erecting one each winter until Gore accepts an invitation to discuss the global warming issue in Fairbanks.

Maybe they should wait a couple of years until things warm up in Alaska. Al Gore warned two years ago that the Arctic polar cap would disappear in 5 years.

Related… By the way, there has been no rise in atmospheric carbon fraction over the last 150 years or during the most recent five decades.

Still More… Great Britain bloggers are taking a closer look at one of their prominent global warming alarmists.

    Strangely, the frozen Goracle is more lifelike than Al Gore.

    Hey Al…I have a solution for global poverty and stopping the earth from cooling, warming, changing and cooling again… STFU…leave us alone. Give your money to those poor people try not flying your private jet all over the damned place..and give your pathetic speeches over the internet ” you invented” and stay in your big house where you pay to heat and cool it anyway. Then put a bag over your head tie a really nice thick string around your neck and the bag and tie it real tight! One less carbon footprint. Before doing so go on and encourage all your stinking environmental nutjob friends to do the same. We will build a monument to your stupidity, selfless termination of your carbon output and any others who will follow your example. Freaking putz

    Fairbanks where . . . the thermometers hit -100 during winter . . . diesel trucks can never be turned off from November through March . . . where the sun shines 1-2 hours at most during the winter . . .

    Great place for Gore!

    “In ABOUT six years, the Arctic polar ice cap will ALMOST completely melt in SUMMER.”

    What’s mystifying … or perhaps terrifying, is how many millions of people have had the vapors hearing that totally unremarkable statement, reduced to quivering panic by the simple omission of …”as it does EVERY summer.” A fact they should know, but for some reason didn’t get it in second grade.

    And notice how Gore very very very carefully doesn’t say, “The polar ice caps (plural) so he isn’t caught out on saying the ANTARCTIC ice cap will “in about six years ALMOST completely melt in SUMMER.”
    He can’t say that because it can’t.
    Lawyer-screened rhetoric.

    flashback to 2007 (can’t seem to find
    more recent data, hmm hmm hmm)

    Al Gore’s Carbon Footprint Is Big

    flashback to 2006..

    that was just the mansion..

    [Public records reveal that as Gore lectures Americans on excessive consumption, he and his wife Tipper live in two properties: a 10,000-square-foot, 20-room, eight-bathroom home in Nashville, and a 4,000-square-foot home in Arlington, Va. (He also has a third home in Carthage, Tenn.) For someone rallying the planet to pursue a path of extreme personal sacrifice, Gore requires little from himself.]

    aah, but there’s more..

    [Gore has held these apocalyptic views about the environment for some time. So why, then, didn't Gore dump his family's large stock holdings in Occidental (Oxy) Petroleum? As executor of his family's trust, over the years Gore has controlled hundreds of thousands of dollars in Oxy stock. Oxy has been mired in controversy over oil drilling in ecologically sensitive areas.

    Living carbon-neutral apparently doesn't mean living oil-stock free.
    Nor does it necessarily mean giving up a mining royalty either.

    Humanity might be "sitting on a ticking time bomb," but Gore's home
    in Carthage is sitting on a zinc mine. Gore receives $20,000 a year in royalties from Pasminco Zinc, which operates a zinc concession on his property. Tennessee has cited the company for adding large quantities
    of barium, iron and zinc to the nearby Caney Fork River.]

    so, how b$g is Gore’s carbon footprint??

    oh, at least a b$ll$on or more..

    Someone should tell Al Gore that it will be below zero in the great state of Oklahoma by morning.

    With all the global warming we’ve been having, they could ship that thing to Miami and it wouldn’t melt.

    Algore is a fraud. But he’s a good index for measuring the delusional thinking of liberals.

    I love this statue! I truly hope that the men do keep putting it up until Gore comes up to Fairbanks to discuss global warming with them. There are electrical recepticals EVERYWHERE in Fairbanks because cars simply can’t handle how brutally cold it gets there. I mean grocery stores, school, everywhere, cause if people can’t plug in, they need to leave their cars running. I don’t know how the folks up there do it (I am around Anchorage), but it’s nasty cold.
