You guys, this is rather simple-Al Gore is rich as fuck, he has a crew of secret service traveling with him like a circus, how would you expect him to live? In a 2 bed condo driving a prius? He's supposed to live it up, thats supposedly the capitalistic incentive to working hard right? Work hard make money live it up. He's championing a good cause, why knock him? Theres a lot of shit in teh air and it's getting worse, at least he's saying something about it and trying to get a movement going. I hope he runs, if he does maybe he will be elected prez and have the power to pressure the rest of the world (think india and china) to also do something about our pollution levels. I think global warming is just a way to say over pollution, and you have to admit something DOES need to be done.
