Completely not mine

These are two of the guys blogs that I love to check out talking about Al Gore.

The first is Justin's blog about Gore.

The Tennessee Center for Policy Research checks into his utility bills.

Here’s some highlights:

- U.S. average yearly household electricity consumption — 10,656 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year

- Al Gore’s yearly energy consumption — nearly 221,000 kWh

- Al Gore’s Natural Gas bill per month — an average of 1,080 dollars PER MONTH!

Yep, that’s right global warming alarmist, and former Vice President Al Gore uses 2 times the national yearly average kWh’s per month.

Great job by Justin.

The next is Jason Kearny's blog about Gore.

Al Gore couldn't get elected president, but now he has what even George W. Bush does not have: an Oscar. He won for the film An Inconvenient Truth, a documentary about global warming. In his acceptance speech, he called on all Americans to wake up and heed the call to change. Here is a portion of his acceptance speech: "People all over the world, we need to solve the climate crisis. It's not a political issue; it's a moral issue. We have everything we need to get started, with the possible exception of the will to act. That's a renewable resource -- let's renew it. " In the film, one of the ways he says the average person can help deal with global warming is to cut back on their household energy usage.Gore should have no problem finding a place to put his Oscar. He has plenty of room in his 10,000 square foot, 20 room mansion with eight bathrooms, in the exclusive Belle Meade neighborhood in Nashville.

For the complete version of Jason's blog use the link above.

Great job guys. Hope you don't mind me posting it here. This has been something that bothered me ever since it came out. I don't remember Gore doing much about this when he had power. In fact several of the years he points out as the worst in global warming were years he was the vice president.
