An Inconvenient Truth

Sheriff Gonna Getcha · 02-27-2007, 10:14 PM

I support Al Gore's Eco-Friendly politics, but I saw a pretty funny story on CNN. CNN reported that Al Gore spent over $30,000 on his electric bill last year, averaging about $2,500 per month. It's reminiscient of Dick Gephardt bashing Bush for not pushing for tighter emissions requirements in new cars, even though he himself drove an SUV (until the Washington Post ran a story). I love how full of it politicians are.

**** al gore. i think he doesnt give a shit about the enviroment and they are just using him as the talker so people will listen. also i think gobal warming is a big hoax, not all of it, but they over due it a bit so that the gov't gets more money.

but that is just me.

what a hypocrite. ****ing joke

this is the type of stuff that pisses me off

Sick. I cant say much more than has already been said. Al Gore is a no-character, robotic, hypocritical talking head. When I think about how much of a retard I think Bush is, it makes me smile because I'd rather him than Al Gore. I mean, come....he invented the internet. WTF.

Let me get this straight, you think global warming is a big hoax but not all of it? That's a good brain teaser right there.

Totally!

“As the spokesman of choice for the global warming movement, Al Gore has to be willing to walk (the) walk, not just talk the talk, when it comes to home energy use,”

The Gore’s 10,000 square foot house on Lynnwood Boulevard doesn’t have a small one.

True about the solar panel...but who mentioned Bush here? I don't mean to make a bigger deal out of this than has to be but, is it me or do you like to attack Bush on this board just for the hell of it arbitrarly?

Hypocritical is, as hypocritical does
-Forest Gore

And..........who mentioned Bush?

Hog1 · 02-28-2007, 07:28 AM

I didn't see tha other post as well D!

I don't like Al Gore too much and I am not too confident about the truthfullness behind the whole global climate crisis discussion but if he is having solar panels installed then that should be as big a story as his energy use. I think it is wholly unfair for the media to make headlines that clearly are meant as indictments when there are major parts of the story that change the whole context. It happens all the time with all kinds of politicians(and everyone else too) and I am tired of it. There's plenty to complain about most people, including Al Gore, without some manufactured story about his energy use.
