Plan-A: Have his son, Albert III do the driving to pick up the Nobel prize, but the boy was too drugged-out on oxycortin with Rush

.
Just an observation -
.
Pettiness is ingrained in our national character. It's vintage Americana. We can't seem to be gracious and at least give this man his due credit for bringing the issue of Global Warming to the forefront - a great benefit to the world.
.
The Nobel was awarded to an American - regardless of who he is. How can we not be gracious ? Instead, we become vulgar, poisonous and petty.
.
If being vulgar, poisonous and petty are ways to make the American character feels good, then my friends we are building a MYTH.

If you are wondering why Christians on the far right and Christians on the far left are working hand in hand with Al Gore and pushing the "global warming- save the enivironment" agenda, this may help you understand...

It's because he terrifies them. They know that if he runs he wins no matter who they put up. They could run a Ronald Reagan's ghost and the baby Jesus ticket and Gore/Whomever would still win.

My my my...

Dearie me...

Since there are so many trolls on this thread, your Auntie Christ thought that she would remind you that the story is about Al Gore (a noble man whom you all love to hate) and I notice how you crawl out of the woodwork like the cockroaches that you are whenever his name is mentioned.

Maybe Huffingtonpost should have run the story about the former GOP aide who fessed up to his 'imaginary' teen trysts.

http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Former_GOP_aide_cops_to_child_1206.html

Yes... you poor closeted dearies continue to prey on children.

Greedy Old Perverts.

I wouldn't be surprised when you say that you support the troops that you lick your lips from the combination of the lust you have towards their bodies and the amount of money that you feel you can profit from their deaths... Disgusting.

Auntie Christ

Gore is truly a great statesman and should have been our president. Too bad he was cheated out of it. At least now he can help save our planet, if that's still possible.

House #1 A 20 room mansion (not including 8 bathrooms) heated by natural gas. Add on a pool (and a pool house) and a separate guest house, all heated by gas. In one month this residence consumes more energy than ! the ave rage American household does in a year. The average bill for electricity and natural gas runs over $2400. In natural gas alone, this property consumes more than 20 times the national average for an American home. This house is not situated in a Northern or Midwestern "snow belt" area. It's in the South.

House #2 Designed by an architecture professor at a leading national university. This house incorporates every "green" feature current home construction can provide. The house is 4,000 square feet (4 bedrooms) and is nestled on a high prairie in the American southwest. A central closet in the house holds ; geothermal heat-pumps drawing ground water through pipes sunk 300 feet into the ground. The water (usually 67 degrees F.) heats the house in the winter and cools it in the summer! The system uses no fossil fuels such as oil or natural gas and it consumes one-quarter electricity required for a conventional heating/cooling system. Rainwater from the roof is collected and funneled into a 25,000 gallon underground cistern. Wastewater from showers, sinks and toilets goes into underground purifying tanks and then into the cistern. The collected water then irrigates the land surrounding the house. Surrounding flowers and shrubs native to the area enable the property to blend into the surrounding rural landscape.

~~~~~
HOUSE #1 is outside of Nashville , Tennessee ; it is the abode of the "environmentalist" Al Gore;

HOUSE #2 is on a ranch near Crawford, Texas ; it is the residence the of the President of the United States , George W. Bush.

An "inconvenient truth".

All Americans should be damn proud of Al Gore.

Congratulations to him on a well deserved and highly regarded Nobel Prize win.

Kudos!

As the controversy over global warming doomsayer Al Gore"s voracious energy-eater mansion rolls on, there"s an angle I think merits deeper investigation than it is currently getting. While much of the focus has been on whether or not Gore is an environmental hypocrite, the story has raised the profile of the role of "carbon offsets" in achieving a "greener," more environmentally friendly world.

...

As Wikipedia explains, a carbon offset "is a service that tries to reduce the net carbon emissions of individuals or organizations indirectly,, through proxies who reduce their emissions and/or increase their absorption of greenhouse gases." Wikipedia goes on to explain that "a wide variety of offset actions are available; tree planting is the most common. Renewable energy and energy conservation offsets are also popular, including emissions trading credits."

So far, so good. So, where does Gore buy his "carbon offsets"? According to The Tennessean newspaper"s report, Gore buys his carbon offsets through Generation Investment Management. a company he co-founded and serves as chairman:

Gore helped found Generation Investment Management, through which he and others pay for offsets. The firm invests the money in solar, wind and other projects that reduce energy consumption around the globe¦

It gets better:

As co-founder and chairman of the firm Gore presumably draws an income or will make money as its investments prosper. In other words, he "buys" his "carbon offsets" from himself, through a transaction designed to boost his own investments and return a profit to himself. To be blunt, Gore doesn"t buy "carbon offsets" through Generation Investment Management - he buys stocks.

And it is not clear at all that Gore"s stock purchases - excuse me, "carbon offsets" purchases - actually help reduce the use of carbon-based energy at all, while the gas lanterns and other carbon-based energy burners at his house continue to burn carbon-based fuels and pump carbon emissions - a/k/a/ "greenhouse gases" - into the atmosphere.

I wish I had the stomach to watch Sold His Soul to the Devil Hannity long enough to see what he has to say about Gore this time. Sean gets his little chonies all in a wad over Gore and his energy saving or not - as Hannity spills it over and over again so all the white hairs out there in Faux News land get what he's trying to say. Ha! Sean is a fucking JOKE and Gore is the MAN.
