its seems you dont understand the effect money has on people. most everyone has "a price". no principle so sacred that they wouldnt give it up for a lifetime of riches. and in this case giving up the principle doesnt mean supporting coercion or theft or violence either. gore simply abandon his martyr cloth in order to make some $$$. doesnt mean he was promoting something he doesnt believe in. means he believes more in $$$ than in alturism. period.
you need some basic climate science courses.
On the contrary, I understand the effect of money on people quite well.
"Everybody has a price." Classic Ted Dibiase stuff.
It wasn't as if Gore was on welfare, prior to this deal. But, as I've said earlier, it's not merely his unloading Current TV to Al-Jazeera.
Throw in the attempt to duck Obama's tax hikes (after yapping about the rich, including himself, needing to pay more in taxes) and his stiffing his fellow tree-huggers (who apparently are ENRAGED that the new owner of the network, coupled with the fact that Gore took the money and ran) and you have full-blown demonstration of the character-lacking cad that Gore really is.
