Telling the Nation

A couple of weeks ago, David Roberts at Gristmill had the chance to interview climate change hero Al Gore and kindly solicited questions.

My question for him was: Does Al ever feel like saying "I Told You So" to the nation?

Roberts didn’t ask Gore the question, but the thought has crossed Gore’s mind. On "Saturday Night Live" this weekend, thanks to Crooks and Liars, you can see Al Gore say so, live from the Oval Office.

Sort of.

My favorite line:

In the last 6 years we have been able to stop global warming. No one could have predicted the negative results of this. Glaciers that once were melting are now on the attack.

As you know, these renegade glaciers have already captured parts of upper Michigan and northern Maine, but I assure you: we will not let the glaciers win.
