What a lying SOB! He wants the "little people", middle class working fools, to
jump on the band wagon of "green", get rid of our cars, live in pup tents, PAY
TAXES, so he, and the movie stars, and politicians, can keep their plush homes,
Hummers, limos, yachts, jets, and the rest of us WALK to conserve energy,
save that awful gasoline stuff they so hate!! And the American public continues
to kiss their asses, and worse, BELIEVE the horse crap they feed us. VOTE EM
ALL OUT, KICK THEIR SORRY BUTTS OUT OF OFFICE!!

GORE CONTINUES TO SPREAD HIS LIES AT THE EXPENSE OF THE AMERICAN TAXPAYER. HE IS GETTING FILTHY RICH OFF OF THIS SCAM HE IS PROMOTING, HE MAKES ME WANT TO PUKE.

HARRY May 1st 2010 10:39AM

Gore was a fraud long before he capitalized on the global warming scam. He just hit upon a gold mine with this newer scheme. His father was a fraud from which this branch sprouted. Al Sr. became a millionaire from being a US senator. I wonder how Jr.'s supporters justify him having two mansions while preaching "green".

joannechristie May 1st 2010 8:07AM

This fraud needs to be in prison. I hope they find out the truth and put him away. He is the worse of the worse. I can't believe people fell for this hoax on global warming just as they fell for Obama. All these politicians need to be voted out starting w/ Nov. 2010. They don't deserve any respect & are just living off our fruits & labor to make themselves rich robber barons. Most of them couldn't hold a job in the private sector. Wake up America!!!

Gore is a major scammer. His home in Tennessee supposedly utilizes more energy exponentially than the average household and now he is buying a home with pool, spa, fountains...all requiring energy to run. This scam artist is a typical progressive...preaches how everyone else should live but does not have abide by the same rules. His baby Global Warming will go down as being one of the major jokes of the century. Did you ever hear him read his poem about it? It is hysterical. He is a putz and a laughing stock in politics. How people follow him and obama is mind boggling since they are so crooked.

Dottie Ann May 1st 2010 8:12AM

This guy is hilarious....I just look at him and break into fit of laughter. How can anyone take him seriously. Just his tone of voice alone is pure comedy. And can anyone forget the debates, where he came out doing his best to look like Ronald Reagan, with his ( reddish) dyed, perfectly side parted hair and heavily roughed cheeks. After he lost the election, whining all the way out the door about chads, he decided to pick up the pieces of his life and go on to greater things like carbon foot prints and melting ice caps. What are the odds he still orders a double fry with extra salt when he pulls up to the clowns mouth in his Mercedes.?Al, you are priceless. rotflmao!

FOXYLYNX May 1st 2010 8:14AM

THIS FEAR MONGER IS A TOTAL HYPOCRITE! AS WE SPEAK THE RICH AND POWERFUL ARE ALREADY SETTING THE TABLE FOR CAP AND TRADE AND THEY WILL MAKE BILLIONS MORE OFF THE BACKS OF AMERICANS - GET READY FOR HIGHER ENERGY BILLS, TAX AND TAX SOMEMORE IS THE MANTRA OF THE LIBS. OUR MONEY IS GOING TO GO TO UNDER DEVELOPED COUNTRS - A NEW FORM OF THE "NEW WORLD ORDER" AT OUR EXPENSE.

Larry May 1st 2010 8:22AM

His Tennessee home electric bill was $2,500.00 a month. Just your typical Liberal hypocrite at work. They don't want anyone controlling their lives, they just want to control yours. For all you bleeding heart liberals that vote Democrat because they "help the poor", guess what? Those people are still poor. Wake up and vote conservative.

nealdittmer5 May 1st 2010 8:24AM

Hey, give the him a break. The guy needs somewhere to park the private jet he uses.

sultanite May 1st 2010 8:25AM

I believe in GLOBAL WARMING it has happen before and will happen again.
I also believe in ICE AGES they have happened before and will likely happen again.
I don't believe it was my fault. I do believe that there are many WARMIST that are making big bucks of of the SHEEPLE that think we are going to cause the end of the world. Even if we tried too even if every nuke on the planet went off at the same time that couldn't kill the planet. Sure it would take out most life but not all and in time the the planet would be inhabited again. Wait didn't that kind of happen to the dinosaurs ?????
