Will AP Fact-Check Gore's 'Million Degree' Claim on Conan?

For several years as uneducated sycophants in the media gushed and fawned over every utterance from former Vice President Al Gore, NewsBusters has informed readers of just how absurd the junk science he's peddling really is.
 
Last Thursday, NBC "Tonight Show" viewers got a perfect example of how the Nobel Laureate basically makes things up, and that his poor grades in college were quite an indicator of just how little he understands about science. Read more ...

There's a few problems with his simplification of geo- thermal energy harnessing. I'm sure such a renowned scientist like himself would be happy to explain the solutions to these problems to us ignorant laymen.

Liberal narcissists are terrified,
of direct unvarnished truth.
It peels off their faux-idealistic facade like a sand blaster.
One-dimensional pretentious image projecting poseurs.
Totally unused to honest hayseed patriots from the back woods,
who 'say what they mean'.
The Obama ruling cabal are skulking gutless cowards, creepy phonies.
Net them, send 'em back to the streets of Chicago,
re-release back into their jungle.
Conservatives & Sarah, America's new COMMUNITY Organizers.

I figured it out. I know how Gore can claim global warming when everyone else says it's cooling and that the tempature of the core of the earth is in the millions. Gore is not using the Fahrenheit, Celsius or Kelvin units of measure, he's using the Gore Unit. It all makes sense now, although I have not been able to figure out how to convert his units of measure into one of the other three. But since I don't have a nobel prize for fleecing people I guess I'm not suppose to be able to.

I had to play it twice but I heard correctly. Al states that here in the U.S. "they" say that there is a 35,000 year supply of geothermal energy... I may have went to a State college and have to work for a living but... The planet is several billion years old and had a molten core for all that time but we only have 35,000 years of molten core left? Now I have to worry about the magnetic field collapsing and all life being wiped out by cosmic rays when the core solidifies, If he is any indication of education in fancy ivy league colleges I'm glad I went to a State college!

Most scientists say the core is probably 8000 to 12000 deg. F......That would put gore off by about several million. Imagine what he would have done to the national debt with that mastery of numbers. Libtard philosophy states that the zero's after a whole number have zero meaning.
