3. He's a major producer of hot air. Perhaps King thinks Gore, who is brilliant, will find a way to use
him.

7. It's the way things work in America...
Ya see...over HERE, ya got yer sensible guy who speaks the truth about global warming. He
backs up his statements with facts and science.

Then, over HERE you got yer bombastic right-wing fluffer nutter who spews talking points that
are based on outrageous lies and more made up malarkey on a stick.

It's called 'balance', son.

It's called 'giving both sides a chance to express their views,' son.

We must give equal time to the reality-based folks and equal time to the destructive weasels--as
if each side is equally legitimate.

It's called 'fucked up', son!
