Gore Told To Clean Up Own Backyard

Ain't hypocrisy in style these days? I am OK with whichever side of the aisle someone's on (left or right) as long as they aren't in one and telling me to be in the other-- Those who fly private jets and ride in motorcades are NOT conservationists and they are only using the environment as a vehicle for their own agenda...why not use the internet that he invented (grin) to get the word out...would save a ton of emmissions (grin). Fun post Jim...needed that after the last couple of days of fun... Eric

Eric - glad you enjoyed it . Seems like Mr Gore has finally found his niche .... making friends with all his friends in Hollywood, appearing at the Oscar's, and best of all, making a couple of million $$'s a week just flying around with his climate change caravan on his private jet *something tells me with all the support staff for his show AND his protection detail, that wouldn't be a small Lear jet either*

Thanks for the tip Jim, they said just make a new post, and then I wondered why it wasn't picking up. It worked for my wordpress one.

I agree that it is hypocrisy, but sooner or later the world will get the hint that it is time to start trying to conserve. The envronmentalists drive me nuts though, they are such hypocrites themselves, one of the cleanest forms of electical generation in from Atomic energy, but NO we can't build nuclear power plants, oh my goodness that would be just terrible. Then the super rich the pull the same thing, they want clean energy, but out on cape cod they are trying to put in a wind farm, and the locals all oppose it. I don't understand the wind turbines will be 5 to 6 miles off shore and very hard to see but oh my god it just can't be done they say. I say, get over it. It is just so hard to be clean. I am doing my bit anyway, put a layer of R31 insulation on top of the old insulation in my 1967 house we purchased in December, Today the 1967 single glazed windows started to be replaced with nice energy efficient modern double glazed windows, In the fall our old 50% efficient boiler will be replaced with a 85% efficient boiler. Also have replaced all the old fashioned light bulbs in the house with the energy star bulbs as well. I know this was kind of rambleing but I think some of the points got across. To sum things up, you can call Gore a hypocrite but does that really start getting things moving in the direction they need to start going in?
