....I thought one of the points of having [a hybrid] was you couldn't go out there and burn up a lot of gasoline and get lousy miles per gallon statistics and so forth and so on. His sister picked him up in a Maserati. A V8 400-horsepower Maserati took Algore III home.

[Recovering_Democrat]

I emphasized the maserati portion of Rush's comments...can ANYONE verify this from another source?!

I think the hypocrisy is HUGE if that is the case...my source for local news even emphasized the HYBRID angle of the story....I'd like to know if the GAS GUZZLING part is true, too.

I don't care what a person drives, if they are doing 100 mph they are not being green. I am sure that the prius doesn't get very good miliage at 100 mph. The Gores have already been proven to be hypocrits but the media and climate idiots ignore the facts.

[wideawake]

There's no hypocrisy at all.

The charitable foundation of which she is a trustee purchases carbon credits on her behalf. It's totally cool.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

I feel so much better.

[Bobibutu]

Ahhhh a sane person in the Gore family. My kind of girl. ;-)

[kristinn]

Source of claim. It links back to local CBS video of Gore getting into the car.

[AU72]

Did algore try to bribe the police?

"How many Carbon Credits will it take to make this incident go away?"

[tuvals]

Yup, a don’t do as I do but do as I say. Gore and his save the earth ideas can GO TO HELL!

[mhx]

I wonder if they tried to pay his bail with carbon credits?

[xp38]

Of course it’s true...you can tell in the video the model is a quattroporte and it is the latest version so it’s a 2005 model or newer. The epa fuel economy website gives the 2007 model these mileage figures for the quattroporte. City 11 Hwy 16 Combined 13...and it seems to qualify for the gas guzzler tax too!!! :)

[xp38]

Oh sorry that should Maserati quattroporte

His sister picked him up in a Maserati. A V8 400-horsepower Maserati took Algore III home.

She accelerated pretty briskly using many of those 400 horses when pulling away from the reporters.

LOL... Don't these Gore kids know that we only have ten years before it's too late to save the planet?

[Phantom Lord]

I can verify it. I saw it on the news. He stepped into the car, door closed and drove off. Could clearly see Maserati written on the back.

[vpintheak]

Relax folks, she bought PLENTY of Carbon credits, so she’s fine to do what she wants. Don’t you get it?

[lilylangtree]

“Maserati. A V8 400-horsepower Maserati?” Egads! His offspring don’t believe in global warming either.

[ncfool]

JUST REMEMBER THE GORE MOTTO: “Do as I say not as I do.”

[xp38]

It will go faster than a Prius too. One source I read said 170 mph....no problem.

[ncfool]

What station was the report on. I bet they have a video of it posted on their site.

[Wil H]

Well at least the Maserati can go 100mph safely on the freeway, which is more than you can say for the Prius

[eyedigress]

Gore has been outed completely. His consumption records of utilities being released pretty much did him in. Those that are in his camp could care less what he does or how he does it.
