One of our leading intellectual lights - Al Gore

Say what you may about Al Gore's devotion to Anthropogenic Global Warming (and the serious money he stands to make from promoting it), the man is seriously intelligent. Errr... Maybe not so. From Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters:
Al Gore Got a D in Natural Sciences at Harvard
Want to know why Nobel Laureate Al Gore likely doesn't want to debate any of the myriad of scientists and politicians that have challenged him to such a t�te-�-t�te regarding his manmade global warming theories?

Could it possibly be because Gore was a terrible science student, and clearly never excelled at anything relating to what folks in Norway and in the media consider him to be so expert at?

The following was reported by the Washington Post on March 18, 2000 -- and conveniently ignored by media ever since Gore began lecturing the world about subjects he practically flunked as a student! -- in an article marvelously titled "Gore's Grades Belie Image of Studiousness" (h/t NBer dscott, and tangentially Greenie Watch):
For all of Gore's later fascination with science and technology, he often struggled academically in those subjects. The political champion of the natural world received that sophomore D in Natural Sciences 6 (Man's Place in Nature) and then got a C-plus in Natural Sciences 118 his senior year.
I have said it before and will say it again. It is not about the environment, it is about power and control. Posted by DaveH at May 5, 2009 9:35 PM
