Gore denies being a carbon billionaire, hits back at critics
London, Nov 4 : Former US Vice President Al Gore has hit back at his critics who have described him as the world’s first carbon billionaire following his investments in green energy companies, and dismissed them as global-warming deniers.
Defending his business activities on ABC TV, Gore denied he was on the way to becoming a carbon billionaire.
“I am proud to have put my money where my mouth is for the past 30 years. And though that is not the majority of my business activities, I absolutely believe in investing in accordance with my beliefs and my values,” he said.
Gore has become a powerful advocate of government policies to limit carbon dioxide emissions since leaving office in 2001.

How does a man with no ability, who inherited his political position from his crooked father, and would fail a McDonald’s employee test “hit back”?
You have only two choices to find someone more stupid:
Choice 1: Go to the US capitol and pick any other senator or representative.
Choice 2: Go to the White House and pick any resident president.
Gore’s antics would make Madoff blush...
It just hammers me to think there are people IN THIS COUNTRY that are stupid enough to fall for this absolute horse manure and con-game. STUPID!!!!
Can we see his and the Mrs. tax returns?
Isn't that special, Al? Money carries a lot of germs and you have become infected with the diseases of greed and corruption.
Pedal it elsewhere Al. Not buying your snake oil OR your excuses.
jerk.
“How can I be SkyKing without my Gulfjet?” Captain Al Carbon
Also, I don’t know if he still holds all those Occidental Petroleum shares his daddy left him, but while he was Clinton’s VP he was a bigger Oil Man than Bush ever was.
algore is a fraud. Head to toe.
SO: He's saying he was investing in "green" companies while he was in office, and in a position to influence the fortunes of those companies???
Isn't there a law against that?
You're wrong unless becoming one of the worlds most successful con artists doesn't require much ability.
>> I am proud to have put my money where my mouth is
Al! You put your money on George Soros’ JOHNSON??!? Gross!
Isn’t it his company that sells “carbon credits”? You pay his company and he’ll supposedly plant a tree somewhere. I’ll be Jessie Jackson is thinking “Why the hell didn’t I think of that. Civil Rights is so ‘yesterday’.”
Cap and Tax is pure corruption for thieves like algore. Why doesn’t he spread his wealth?
Pray for America’s Freedom
No, he is not a carbon billionaire.
Yet.
why would anyone believe the worlds biggest liar?
Interesting that it takes a newspaper in India to dig up this stuff.
Many a fortune was made screwing over the people. Hell, it’s practically the American Way.
Is Gore still getting residual checks on his lo-flo toilets?
Does he get paid by the flush?
Gore and his ilk have milked this one good. Obama's folks I thought were for more "green" energy. I haven't seen a shred of evidence for that. There's no such thing as "global warming". Gore is laughing all the way to the Bank.
Maybe he is thinking a UK billion?
Al has learned how to fool the stupid, gullible people in the world. He has learned that a lot of them call themselves “journalists.” He has figured out how to get the stupid people to give him their money. And he is hoping for the mother lode if he can just persuade enough idiots in Congress to pass Cap and Trade.
Meanwhile, he will just have to scrape by with the $100 million or so that he has received from selling propaganda films, books, and speaking engagements. What a country.
Didn’t he go from net worth of $2,000,000 in 2001 to $1,000,000,000 today?
(That’s one thousand MILLION dollars !!!)
Gee, I wonder how he did that?
Maybe like Hillary, “... just read the Wall Street Journal everyday”.
Well, actually she didn’t, that turned out to be a lie too, like everything else both of these charlatans have ever said.......
Al Gorbaschev counts inventing the internet 30 years ago as being green.

I just got my copy of “Costco Connection,” today. Its the quarterly magazine Costco sends out to its members.
Guess who covers the front with the issue’s lead story? Why none other than BEARPIGMAN Al Whore...looking all snobby, pious, all-knowing and telling us to “rethink energy.” Translation: learn to live with less energy, higher regulation and taxation. I have emailed Costco to let them know how thoroughly “displeased” and OFFENDED they have chosen to endorse this THIEVING, LYING, SCUMBAG GLOBALIST on the cover of their member magazine.
Hiow is that? How much energy does it take to make a pc and then to run it?
Hmmmm. The teat on that sow must be chapped by now. Oh, yes...forgot it was the U.S. taxpayer lubricating the deal.
He’s only made $999 million.
