As the high priest of the Church of Global Warming, Al Gore has declared “the debate is over” on the “moral issue” of global warming.
Apparently, Lord Monckton, who was once an advisor to British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, hasn’t received that bit of news from his advisors. Monckton has sent a formal letter to Gore at his energy-sucking estate challenging him to debate his global warming claims one-on-one on live television. The letter reads:
“The Viscount Monckton of Brenchley presents his compliments to Vice- President Albert Gore and by these presents challenges the said former Vice-President to a head-to-head, internationally-televised debate upon the question, ‘That our effect on climate is not dangerous,’ to be held in the Library of the Oxford University Museum of Natural History at a date of the Vice-President’s choosing.
“Forasmuch as it is His Lordship who now flings down the gauntlet to the Vice-President, it shall be the Vice-President’s prerogative and right to choose his weapons by specifying the form of the Great Debate. May the Truth win! Magna est veritas, et praevalet. God Bless America! God Save the Queen!”
Gore can barely hold his own when reading from a script. Don’t expect him to accept the challenge and risk being dethroned.
