> At first blush, the spoof seemed like a scrappy little homemade film
> poking fun at Gore and his anti-global warming crusade.
>
> In the movie, Gore is seen boring an army of penguins with his lecture

> But when the Wall Street Journal tried to find the guy who posted the
> film "Al Gore's Penguin Army" -- listed on YouTube as a 29-year-old --
> they found the movie didn't come from an amateur working out of his

>
> The film actually came from a slick Republican public relations firm
> called DCI, which just happens to have oil giant Exxon as a client."
>
> And this is the video - without a doubt the dorkiest and lamest thing
