Al Gore apparently has canceled a high-priced speaking engagement during the upcoming climate change conference in Copenhagen.

As NewsBusters reported Tuesday, the Nobel Laureate was slated to lecture about his new book “Our Choice” where attendees could pay over $1,200 a ticket for the right to meet the Global Warmingist-in-Chief and have their picture taken with him.

According to Danish newspaper Berlingske, this has been canceled due to “unforeseen changes” to Gore’s schedule (rough translation follows, h/t Marc Morano).

Calm down, people, he will still manage to become the first carbon billionaire.

    HE would have to pay ME 1200.00!!

  2. Faxon says:

    This jerk is just fucking disgusting.

  3. Dallas says:

    A Gore book promotion event canceled is enough of a bone to chew on?

    Wow. The “let’s shit in our own air bubble” crowd is really hungry for attention!!

  4. Breetai says:

    Wolf! Wolf!

    But he’s not alone… Have you known that he can train you to become “Climate Project Presenter”?

    Is he still going ahead with the $2,000 per handjob event?

  7. jescott418 says:

    Handjob or handshake? Maybe he does both? Definately good at a con job. Oh well, he can always go back to inventing the internet.

  8. Dr Dodd says:

    Now that we know man-made global warming is a fraud, why does Obama insist on going to Copenhagen and signing away trillions in payments to One World organizations.

    Follow the puppet strings and you will find George Soros on the other end.

    This is no way to run a country.

    Everything you want to know about Climategate:

    Lots of comments with this article that give a reasoned view of the importance of Climategate, if you can get all the way thru them. Especially note the comment titled “Alexander Goristal November 30”. I’d never heard that before.

  10. Animby says:

    #6 – Chuck: Hadn’t heard about the handjob event. Is he active or passive?

    Doer or Doee?

  11. steve says:

    Oh sure, go ahead and kick him when he’s retarded.

  12. deowll says:

    “The bigger the lie the more people will believe it.”

    That’s a rough translation of course.

  13. BigBoyBC says:

    Wonder if the less-than-warm reception he got in Chicago last month had anything to do with this?

  14. Animby says:

    I know the bag of money has been ‘shopped in and I wonder what was originally there. I’m thinking one of those 8 beef patty Burger King cardiac events. With cheese.

  15. LibertyLover says:

    #16, What kind of cheese?

  16. Dallas says:

    #15 I would warmly welcome here in Dallas! Let see, a Nobel Prize recipient, book author, VP of America.

    Rather see Gore than Cheney, who has an arrest warrant in Vermont.

  17. Paper Boats says:

    The fool is a great study in hucksterism. If I were him I would start working real hard to make sure there were entries in the history books and Wikijournals that reflected my sincere desire to make good on all my life’s work at sleazy scam tactics before doing any more harm to the world population. I would realize at least a few years before I died that I would hate visiting relatives in spirit and seeing in the news how the world made an ass out of me in 2020 when every scientist in the world blasted me for being the biggest fool there was, trying to get people to believe that the earth can’t cool itself when the temperature surrounding the stratosbubble is 400 degrees below zero. I wouldn’t want that legacy, but rather one where I realized my massive blunder on April 1, 2010, and to make amends, decided to give everything I owned, including my suits, limousines, mansions, bank balances, gold, everything away to the homeless and hungry, living on no salary, starting with 10 dollars in my jeans pocket, ready to work hard like most people do for my meager income, and then from that day until the end of my life I would be glad knowing I served people at homeless shelters, and helping come up with a way to end homelessness and violence in America, knowing that I actually helped create peace, and in the littlest way then, deserved that prize.

    Cow farts cause more greenhouse gasses than cars. It just shows Al “I haven’t found a hamburger I won’t eat” Gore is a hypocrite. If he cared about the environment, he would go vegan.

  19. jay says:

    The fact that we have had more dead zones might also point to globe warming. the fact that few idiots played around with # doesn’t mean that the shitty place we call home(earth) shouldn’t be protected. at lest for our own health.

  20. Glenn E. says:

    Not just wary of ClimateGate. There is that “the earth’s core is several million degrees” comment on “The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien” via Youtube. Which serious calls attention to Al Gore’s lack of scientific understanding of basic earth science and facts. And that he rarely fact check anything, before shooting his mouth off about it. So should he be the one molding national (or world) policies? Perhaps after this dies down a bit. And NBC gets the Youtube clip pulled. He’ll be back on tour, with more dubious “facts” about AGW.

  21. Toxic Asshead says:

    Damn, and I was going to pee on my hand just before I got in line.

  22. ramuno says:

    Why do you all like to kill the messenger?

  23. Toxic Asshead says:

    There’s no message – Google “Climategate”

  24. bob says:

    ramuno, try again. Whatever you think of AGW, any fool should be able to see that he’s a clown and that he deserves our scorn and contempt.

    The thing I don’t understand is why he doesn’t get a hard time from the more serious climate change experts. I certainly don’t allow dishonest, self-aggrandizing idiots to make hay out of my most sincerely held beliefs without letting others know what I think of those idiots.

    My best theory is that the more serious experts are just what they seem to be as a result of the climategate fiasco.

  25. Mark T. says:

    Wow, it’s snowing in Houston today. That is Gore’s real “inconvenient truth”.

  26. Mr. Fusion says:

    Whatever makes the right wing nuts happy. I would have thought reruns of Dora the Explorer would make most of this crowd happier.

  27. Thomas says:

    I have not visited this site for a while . . . Glad to see its still the same sewer full of flowing excrement and I have not missed a thing.

  28. moderatecentrist says:

    When are people going to learn that Obama is of the same ilk as Jimmy Carter (the worst president eeeverrr Reagan was the best in my lifetime; ever been to Cuba? Imagine that ideology across the globe). Right now I think we need someone as articulate and charming as Obama but with the brains (no Sarah not you; love you babe, but stick to hunting, cooking and confusing North Korea with South) and wisdom to tackle the key issues. I say Mitt Romney is the guy for the job.
