Another Inconvenient Truth

It takes an awful lot of gall to be a Democrat these days. Of course, liberals have never been ones to worry about the venom that actually spew forth from their mouths. Rules are for the people, not for them, much like the Party Communists of the Soviet Union. Anyway, the latest hypocrisy from Al Gore is as predictable as it is frustrating:

Last night, Al Gore’s global-warming documentary, An Inconvenient Truth, collected an Oscar for best documentary feature, but the Tennessee Center for Policy Research has found that Gore deserves a gold statue for hypocrisy.

Gore’s mansion, [20-room, eight-bathroom] located in the posh Belle Meade area of Nashville, consumes more electricity every month than the average American household uses in an entire year, according to the Nashville Electric Service (NES).

In his documentary, the former Vice President calls on Americans to conserve energy by reducing electricity consumption at home.

This is just reason number 37 why I can't get on the global warming bandwagon. I'm not going to take the warming of the globe seriously until members of the movement do. Seriously, why are people like Al Gore given a single second of attention? If a pro-lifer was known to have abortions while arguing that abortion should be illegal, she would be laughed off the stage. Why should our treatment of Gore be any different?

And no, he doesn't have to live in a tee-pee without any electricity at all, but cutting back does require moving out of the mansion. Sorry to break it to him.
