Al Gore has responded to charges that his house consumes more electricity every month than many American households use in an entire year, with the new Oscar winner saying he has taken many steps to reduce the carbon footprint in his home.

Sure he has... but he's not moving to a smaller house to reduce the carbon footprint. It wouldn't be an issue if he lived as he preached.

If liberals were intellectually honest, and we know that is a pipe dream, liberals would...

Ricshaw minorities everywhere they want to solve many issues such as...

1) Global Warming
2) Traffic congestion on highways
3) White Guilt
4) non-use of internal combustion engines

What the hell is a "carbon offset"???

[Yaelle]

Someone please explain this "buying carbon offsets" that Gore and his Hollywooder pals do to "counteract" all their energy overuse.

[Waryone]

An inconvenient truth: Algore all by himself causes "global warming."

[Jhensy]

What a fat, hypocritical douchebag.

Honestly, I don't think there is anyone in American politics more despicable than Albert Gore.

Yep. I've always felt Gore is the worst of them all, and that's saying something. Nobody as smarmy and obviously full of sh*t as he.

Algore's dad never yelled at him "shut the door, I'm not heating the neighborhood!!!"

It means it is okay to pollute as long as you are rich enough to pay someone else to clean up the mess you are making.

Kyoto Accord in a nutshell.

You pay someone else to not create the CO2 that you will use.

For instance, if I want to burn a 60w light bulb for an hour a day, I can pay someone else to not burn one an hour a day, or plant a tree to eat up that CO2, or some other such BS.

It's a great racket - I think I'm going to start a business like this, to get paid for *not* doing something.

Privileged Boy, it's great I gotta tell ya'. Privileged Boy, my Dad can buy and sell ya'. I never wait in line even though you are ahead of me. I'll always get the table cause I always tip the Maitre'd and then I'll go to Yale because I am a legacy I'm better than youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[east1234]

Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, KKK Byrd, Red Ted Kennedy, Gore's got some serious competition.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

So if the internal combustion engine is the problem, I can still have a steam engine?

And who keeps track of who is burning what? Or is it whom?

[Humidston]

Hey Al, my last light bill was $200.

HOW MUCH WAS YOURS???

[AaronInCarolina]

It's a great racket - I think I'm going to start a business like this, to get paid for *not* doing something.

Don't kid yourself for a second that libs haven't already thought of this racket for profiting from the alarmism.

[bray]

Don't forget his first Book was Earth Out of Balance 20 years ago. Does this house have no windows or insulation??

"Gore uses compact florescent bulbs..."

How many Gores does it take to change light bulb?
