Global Warming Climate Change and Godwin's Law
Al Gore just invoked Godwin's Law. From Watts Up With That:
Gore and NazisAnd it seems that Anthony was not the only person to notice -- the Times slipstreamed a new headline in but not before some screen-caps were taken. Here are before and after:
Gore / Nazis � two words I thought I�d never see together, and never wanted to. Yet here it is in a story in the Times Online. Surprisingly, Hollywood has been exploiting this linkage for years. I suppose the appearance of a proof of Godwins Law was inevitable, given how long the global warming discussion and Gore have gone on.
Does anyone else besides me get the impression that Al Gore is really reaching now? At the end of this post, Mr. Gore listed only two possible future questions, I�m sure our readers can fill in some of the missing ones. � Anthony

This is a great posting--captures the desperation of Gore to hype his false science, and also catches the "Times online" "re-spin" of their first effort.
I still remember the famous video of Clinton and Gore touring a historical site--photo-op for campaign of 1992. Gore notices all these busts around the room, and asks the tour guide "Now, who are these people?"
The guide replies "Washington, Jefferson, Adams, ..."
Even Clinton was embarrassed, and we know how hard it is to embarrass Clinton!
