    Gore's personal electricity consumption up 10%, despite "energy-efficient" home renovations

    FTA

    "Al Gore is a hypocrite and a fraud when it comes to his commitment to the environment, judging by his home energy consumption."

      Meanwhile, the Texas Ranch owned by President Bush is the most "green" house in the country. That's certainly inconvenient for mr gore!

      That's certainly 'green' of Al. Global Warming has turned into quite some business venture for Gore & friends.

    FTA

    ""A man's commitment to his beliefs is best measured by what he does behind the closed doors of his own home," said Drew Johnson, President of the Tennessee Center for Policy Research. "Al Gore is a hypocrite and a fraud when it comes to his commitment to the environment, judging by his home energy consumption."

    I think this statement sums up ol' Al perfectly.

      True: A hypocrite and a fraud equals a politician.

      Al is just being himself.

      Don't do as I do. Do as I say.

      I really wish Al Gore would stop trying to be the face of energy conservation. I believe we should cut back where we can, and that a few changes can greatly improve not only our lives, but the health of the planet. But Al Gore takes it to such ridiculous extremes, and he is such a hypocritical bufoon. He makes people ignore ideas and suggestions that they might have considered had they not seen him as the frontman, thus discrediting anything associated with him.
