Al Gore Faces Inconvenient Reality

August 11, 2006 by 1 Comment

We all know that Al Gore loves to talk about how the environment is a mess and we’re all going to die soon because of what we’re doing to the world. Heck, he’s making millions off of his little rants.

Unfortunately, it seems that USA Today has dug up the fact that what Al preaches and what Al practices are two entirely different things. While he’s lecturing Americans on our excess consumption and overuse of resources:

  • Al Gore has over 14,000 square feet of homes.
  • Al Gore doesn’t use wind power, even though it’s offered in the areas of his homes.
  • Al Gore owns a lot of stock in the oil industry. When oil makes money, he makes money. So much for not wanting to deplete the resources…
  • Al Gore makes $20,000 a year from zinc mining on his property. Hmm… again, good thing he doesn’t want to deplete our resources.

Apparently this means Al Gore has about as much credibility when talking about resource depletion as four-time-divorced Rush Limbaugh has when talking about preserving the sanctity of marriage.

    Shows how full of crap the bureaucrats who cry, “Look out for Manbearpig! (I mean Global warming) are” as well as any other boondoggle they want financing for on either side of the same duopoly party coin. Gore’s hypocrisy is “almost proof” that the “worthy causes” championed by these “savers of humanity” are all about their private agendas and that both they and their “causes” are in actuality, phoney.
