Gore was on his TV channel that no one watches bloviating about the upcoming presidential election. He expressed dismay about the lack of &#8220;Climate Change&#8221; questions being directed at Republicans in any of the recent debates. He went on to mischaracterize various natural disasters around the world as &#8220;climate related disasters&#8221; and even trotted out the debunked notion that Arctic ice is melting at a record rate. He then finished by warning that <a href="http://michellemalkin.com/2012/01/12/al-gore/" target="_blank">civilization itself is at risk</a> if we don&#8217;t get serious about his phony science.</p><blockquote><p>Though in recent years the climate change issue has disappeared from the forefront (and former Vice President Al Gore has found himself criticizing Democratic President Barack Obama for not being more aggressive on the issue), on Tuesday night’s coverage of the New Hampshire primary on Current TV, Gore insisted it should be part of the 2012 campaign.</p><p>“It should be in the presidential campaign,” Gore said. “And it is not at present. Not a single question was asked about climate in any of the numerous, multitudinous debates that these candidates have had. And yet in the year 2011, the United States of America had more than 12 climate-related disasters that cost over a billion dollars. The state of Texas has had the worst drought in its history. It is climate-related. Out of 254 counties, 252 are on fire. 2010 was the hottest year ever recorded. We have record melting of the volume of ice in the Arctic Ocean, dramatically powerful storms, in Pakistan, Australia, the Northeast. Record flooding in the Mississippi and the Missouri Rivers, and the list goes on. And it’s consistent with what the scientific community has been warning us.”</p><p>Gore added that the future of civilization was “at risk” if the issue continues to be neglected.</p></blockquote><p>I actually think we should have a national dialogue about global warming. Maybe we can come to a consensus on how best to get Al Gore to shut the f*ck about it.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2012/01/13/al-gore-is-blathering-about-global-warming-again/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Video: Rep.

It does now.</p><p>This is the kind of thing Vladimir Putin does in Russia. Obama said yesterday that when Congress fails to act it&#8217;s <a href="http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2012/01/05/obama_i_have_an_obligation_as_president_to_do_what_i_can_without_congress.html" target="_blank">his responsibility</a> to do so. Actually, it isn&#8217;t. Congress is not a rubber stamp for the president. This is unprecedented in US history. Obama is saying that if Congress doesn&#8217;t give him what he wants he can just do it anyway. Wow. That&#8217;s actually pretty scary.</p><blockquote><p>&#8230;But when Congress refuses to act, and as a result, hurts our economy and puts our people at risk, then I have an obligation as President to do what I can without them. (Applause.) I’ve got an obligation to act on behalf of the American people. And I’m not going to stand by while a minority in the Senate puts party ideology ahead of the people that we were elected to serve. (Applause.) Not with so much at stake, not at this make-or-break moment for middle-class Americans. We’re not going to let that happen. (Applause.)</p></blockquote><p>I think Republicans in Congress should call for his impeachment. This is a blatantly illegal act.</p><p>Democrats are making it clear that they have as little regard for the Constitution as the president. Nancy &#8220;Stretch&#8221; Pelosi is <a href="http://weaselzippers.us/2012/01/05/pelosi-hails-obamas-bold-decision-to-make-recess-appointment-when-congress-was-still-in-session/" target="_blank">praising</a> Obama&#8217;s illegal actions as &#8220;bold&#8221; and that she and other Democrats are &#8220;glad&#8221; he did it.</p><p>But if we&#8217;re throwing the Constitution out the window then let&#8217;s take this thing all the way. I guess that means the next Republican president can tell Congress to pound sand and just appoint whoever he wants to the Supreme Court. Democrats are going to rue the day they pulled this little stunt.</p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2012/01/05/barack-obama-should-be-impeached-for-illegal-recess-appointments/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>3</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Video: Cenk Uygur Loses Argument With Peter Schiff, Cuts His Mic</title><link>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2011/12/22/video-cenk-uygur-loses-argument-with-peter-schiff-cuts-his-mic/</link> <comments>http://www.thehotjoints.com/2011/12/22/video-cenk-uygur-loses-argument-with-peter-schiff-cuts-his-mic/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 22 Dec 2011 20:42:42 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Chris Jones</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Entertainment]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Liberals]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Video]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Cenk uygur]]></category> <category><![CDATA[current tv]]></category> <category><![CDATA[liberal media]]></category> <category><![CDATA[peter schiff]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.thehotjoints.com/?p=182435</guid> <description><![CDATA[You probably don&#8217;t know the clown known as Cenk Uygur, because he was on MSNBC for about 5 minutes before being let go.

Then Al Gore hired him. Anyway, he has a left wing show on Al&#8217;s Current TV. He invited financial guru Peter Schiff (one of the smartest guys on the planet) on to talk about Capitalism. Schiff says the reason our country is in such dire financial straights is because we don&#8217;t actually practice real Capitalism. We follow an insidious kind of Crony Capitalism that favors certain companies and industries with political connections. He&#8217;s absolutely right.</p><p><iframe src="http://videos.mediaite.com/embed/player/?content=6P3XJH2LQ9K392DY&amp;content_type=content_item&amp;layout=&amp;playlist_cid=&amp;media_type=video&amp;widget_type_cid=svp&amp;read_more=1" frameborder="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" scrolling="no" width="420" height="421"></iframe></p><p>If you recall, Peter Schiff is the guy who went down to #OccupyWallStreet and actually <a href="http://www.thehotjoints.com/2011/10/27/video-wall-street-fat-cat-peter-schiff-takes-on-occupywallstreet/" target="_blank">engaged the protesters</a> in a substantive debate.
