Here is a transcript of Al Gore's speech today, entitled "A Generational Challenge to Repower America". And that challenge is:

Today I challenge our nation to commit to producing 100 percent of our electricity from renewable energy and truly clean carbon-free sources within 10 years.

It's difficult to see how a serious policy proposal about electricity generation can avoid the N-word. On the other hand, when you're simply a blowhard sermonizing to True Believers, it's easy to see why you might want to steer clear.
