Al Gore announced Friday a surprise Live Earth concert in Washington, foiling Senate Republicans who blocked Gore's attempt to bring his global warming extravaganza to the grounds of the U.S. Capitol.

Maybe he BLEW his pile of dough and now has to work again. :)
Quite disappointing that these two starts have chosen to become Mother Earth-worshipers. All these concerts are are examples of extreme idol worship - one of the things that brought Israel to destruction.
Maybe we cannot directly change their politics, but we don’t have to support them with our $$ either.
