You are rife with dishonesty. Gore isn't an average person. Is he
any greater or less than a person in similar circumstances?


When they compared Gore's house with GWB's house it was apparent who
the real carbon hog was. Gore does live in a castle (now two castles)
but I guess he is a lot richer than Bush ... from selling phony carbon
credits and being a TV evangelist for a cult religion..
That is a business that makes CDO salesmen look like an honorable
profession.


You'd like to base your comparison on means? Then I'm certain he's a
piker when compared to most living on the top end of the means
spectrum. How many houses does McCain have? 5 or 9 or something like
that.

I'd rather base the comparison on that person's industry or lack
thereof. Most of Gore's carbon footprint was due to his travel.

What does GW Bush do that's in the least bit industrious? Speak on a
hack, has been tour for $15 a seat?

Whether you agree with Gore isn't the issue.
