Answer

Limbaugh argument is based on gas guzzler. It states that if a person travel in a gas guzzler, then the automobiles are not threat to planet but if a person does not travel in gas guzzler, then the automobiles are threat to planet. Hence, the given statement is that Al Gore does not travel in a gas guzzler, which implies Limbaugh argument i.e., Al Gore believes that automobiles are threat to planet. Thus, the provided statement does not make sense, because if one of the premises is false, then the validity of the conclusions cannot be determined. Hence, the provided statement does not make sense.
