There is something………..shall we say, seriously wrong, with Al Gore.

Al may finally have a point. Obama was HIGH on something and it was not altitude.

Little Al Gore’s comments (He is “little Al” as compared to his father also Albert, to whom he will never measure up, and would be an embarrassment) are just plain dumb. As one who has traveled east to west many times, such cognitive inadequacy as seen in Obama just does not happen from that cause. Perhaps the results of what he was smoking during his formative years?

Or from having a hangover from his anniversary party the night before the debate?

Al Gore is an idiot. When you fly in a commercial aircraft the cabin is only pressurized to 8,000 feet–the reason is simply that MOST people are not affected at sudden jumps in altitude from sea level up to 8,000 feet (only at jumps of sea level to 10,000 feet do SOME people feel the affects). DO PEOPLE (OTHER THAN LIBERALS) BELIEVE THESE DOPES WHO RULE OUR HIGHEST OFFICES???????

“Choom Gang” Barry looked like he was in a fog.
Hmmm … maybe Barry burned up too many brain cells, in his youth.
Hey, Barry … why do you think they call it dope?

Obviously Al Gore has no understanding of aircraft pressurization systems. Example: The cabin altitude inside Airforce One B-747 400 would have been at approx. 5,500 Ft. MSL with a 9.3 psi. max differential, if they were at a cruising altitude of Flight Level 370 or 37,000 Ft. MSL flying eastbound from Las Vegas ( KLAS ). KLAS airport is at 2,181 Ft. MSL That’s above sea level. Bottom line…Obama starts out at 2,181 MSL and travels in a pressurized aircraft that has a cabin altitude of approx. 5,500 Ft. MSL to Denver, Colorado which is 5,280 Ft. MSL Obama would have been acclimated well before he arrived in Denver since his body only had to adjust 3,100 Ft. in total.
Al Gore is an idiot as is the current occupant of the White House………..

We have a three way tie for first place between DWS, Biden and Gore for who has made the most redicules, idiotic statements.

I drove to Denver when I moved there. After getting a second floor apartment, we had to carry some of our belongings up the stairs. We were quite out of breath after a couple of trips up and down the stairs. But, I can honestly say that I still knew my name, where I was, and mostly, what I believe to be true, and whether I love this country. I can’t say that it affected my mind at all.
What affects your mind is, smoking dope till your lips turn purple, and listening to insane people like Al Gore. I think I might have lost a point or two from my IQ just watching this video. Must be careful.

Well, what does one expect from the man who claims he invented the INTERNET?

I knew they had both lost their law licenses, but I
didn’t know why until I read this. Please pass it on.
This is 100% legit.I check it out at https://www.iardc.org Stands for
Illinois Attorney Registration And Disciplinary Committee. It’s
the official arm of lawyer discipline in Illinois; and they are very
strict and mean as hell. (Talk about irony.) Even I, at
advanced age of almost 65, maintain (at the cost of approximately
$600/year) my law license that I worked so hard and long to earn.
Big Surprise.
Former Constitutional Law Lecturer and U.S. President Makes Up
Constitutional Quotes During State Of The Union (SOTU) Address.
Consider this:
1. President Barack Obama, former editor of the Harvard Law
Review, is no longer a “lawyer”. He surrendered his license back in 2008 in
order to escape charges he lied on his bar application. A “Voluntary
Surrender” is not something where you decide “Gee, a license is
not really something I need anymore, is it?” and forget to renew
your license. No, a “Voluntary Surrender” is something you do when
you’ve been accused of something, and you ‘voluntarily surrender”
your license five seconds before the state suspends you.
2 Michelle Obama” voluntarily surrendered” her law license in 1993, after a Federal Judge gave her the choice between surrendering her license or standing trial for Insurance fraud!
3. So, we have the first black President and First Lady – who don’t actually have licenses to practice law. Facts.

4. A senior lecturer is one thing, a fully ranked law professor is another.
Barack Obama was NOT a Constitutional Law Professor at the University of
Chicago.
5. The University of Chicago released a
statement in March 2008 saying Sen. Barack Obama
(D-Ill.) “served as a professor” in the law school-but that is a
title Obama, who taught courses there part-time, never held, a
spokesman for the school confirmed in 2008.
7. The former Constitutional Senior Lecturer (Obama) cited the U.S.
Constitution the other night during his State of the Union Address.
Unfortunately, the quote he cited was from the Declaration of
Independence … not the Constitution.
8. The B-Cast posted the video: http://www.breitbart..tv/did-obama-confuse-the-constitution-with-the-declaration-of-independence/
9. Free Republic: In the State of the Union Address, President Obama said: “We find unity in our incredible diversity, drawing on the promise enshrined in our Constitution: the notion that we are all
created equal.
10. Um, wrong citing, wrong founding document there Mr. President.
By the way, the promises are not a notion, our founders named them unalienable
rights. The document is our Declaration of Independence and it reads:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable
Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of
Happiness.
11. And this is the same guy who lectured the
Supreme Court moments later in the same speech?
When you are a phony, it’s hard to keep facts straight.

Hot air dissipates much faster at those higher altitudes. It is clear that BO ran out of hot air.
As a Patriots fan I can now predict that the pats are going to win this game on Sunday against the Bronco’s. These guys like come from like Denver dude. When they come into Foxboro like their brains are going to be under like so much pressure they won’t stand a chance of winning.
Hey! Thanks for clearing that up for me Al. You are such a genius, I don’t understand how you lost your bid for the presidency! No worries though the libs found an even bigger idiot to take your place!

Obama was criss-crossing the country in Air Force 1 quite frequently of late.The cabin altitude in a pressurized aircraft is aprox. 5000 ft. while crusing at altitudes of 33,000 – 37,000 ft.MSL. Obama has been doing the voodo, that he do, in rarefied air for quite some time. Gee Al , kinda an “inconvenient truth” huh ?
Nick
8,000 ft. is standard for US airliners. However, Algore was right about altitude, but not how he meant it. Obozo has been followed by an adoring crowd (rather like Graham Chapman in Life of Brian) who have treated him as a god for so long he believes it himself (remember 2008, emerging from the Grecian temple, like Zeus?) All the print media, and broadcast media except Fox, have told him how wonderful he is, and the harshest questions lobbed at him have been of the “what does it feel like to know that you are so loved” kind of marshmallow. So he really does think of himself as above mere mortals, until some insolent ex-Governor had the temerity to question The Chosen One last Wednesday on TV. The horror.
It wasn’t the high altitude. It was the “Choom Gang” reunion high the night before.
Einstein lives
Gore you old rapist was it altitude that made you try to rape the masseuse in Portland Oregon. You have no credibility why aren’t you in prison?
Jamie
Aaaaaaaahh………….no wonder! Of COURSE! Dangit, there are no people to blame, so it’s the weather. Don’t worry though, give it a week or 2 so they can find someone.
I guess they don’t call him “blamer-in-chief” for nothing.
dhm
Al Gore is an idiot. Period. End of Discussion.
bull57
Gore didn’t even carry his own state in the election! Can anyone imagine that man as president?
Robert Prinz
I knew something was wrong with barack hussein obamas brain he flies in Air Force One to much, the altitude is effecting his brain. He should start using his campaign bus more. When flying over the oceans to foreign countries he should fly about 20 above the ocean so when he arrives in these countries maybe he will not be spreading so much BS.
HongryHawg
He mispronounced. He meant to say attitude, not altitude.
The Truth
Oh boy…I thought Biden was the biggest Dumbocrat…Gore just proved that wrong. Made me laugh, not just at his stupid comment but by the chorus of agreeing “hmmms” and “good point” by the group at the table.
hollie2009ad
Come on Gore, you know that it wasn’t the altitude that muddled Obama, it was just YOUR GLOBAL-WARMING!! You and Biden would make a great team, both of you are such blunder-heads; maybe you both should be on the “democratic” ticket in 2016ad, that is if we will still have a country left if we lose again next month. +JMJ+
