| Too Funny! Al "Pimp The Environment" Gore is at it again! First of all, he lies by saying that the Toyota Prius is a "100 mpg car" when it is, in fact, a 50 mpg car. But in addition, he goes around with an enormous motorcade that includes motorcycles, TWO limos, and a Dodge truck. And, being the good Democrat that he is, he was STUMPING FOR HIGHER TAXES! Who are we kidding here, Al? How 'bout trying a little "LIVE WHAT YOU PREACH!"? Al Gore visits Berkeley, charges up Prop. 87 rally | |||||||||||||||||||||

| I believe that this article is an example of a fallacy of logic called ad homonem, arguing to the man instead of the issue, therefore, the argument it presents is flawed, (not that I totally disagree with the idea that he's being hippocritical, but that's a different point). Our Task must be to free ourselves... by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures, the whole of nature, and its beauty.

Or would it make more sense for me to drive a small, fuel-efficient Volkswagen? Or would it be EVEN BETTER if these Messiahs Of The Environment PRACTICED WHAT THEY PREACH?!?!?!?!?! Now... for the record, I think it would be GREAT if EVERY American was driving an electric car that was re-charged overnight by wind-generated electricity. But I'll be my bottom dollar that Al Gore does NOT drive an electric car - even though he COULD! | ||||||||||||||||||||||

| No, I think I understood your post. And while I agree that you cannot ignore the message because of a messenger, most people do just that. Cindy Sheehan is one example. Bottom line: Al Gore REALLY should LIVE WHAT HE PREACHES! | |||||||||||||||||||||
