Gore boasts: 'Global Governance' Coming with Carbon Tax


It must be the cockiness and arrogance of power; liberals are beginning to be forthright about their true agenda.

Gore Tells conference U.S. responding to warming threat with 'cap-and-trade'

Former Vice President Al Gore, whose "An Inconvenient Truth" video epistle on the claims of global warming has not weathered recent scientific research, now has promised at a conference in the United Kingdom that the impending virtual energy tax under the U.S. "cap-and-trade" legislation will bring about "global governance."

Gore, who this year famously left his Nashville mansion's driveway brightly illuminated during the "Earth Hour" event that promoted energy savings, was speaking at the Smith School World Forum on Enterprise and the Environment.

He cited the "cap-and-trade" legislation in the U.S. Congress that by President Obama's own estimate would cause utility bills to skyrocket for American consumers.

Those taxes are good, Gore said. "But it is the awareness itself that will drive the change, and one of the ways it will drive the change is through global government and global agreements," he said.
