In response to:
Has anyone seen the movie "An Inconvenient truth" Al gore is the one in it, He talks about Global Warming, and what is going to be happening in the next 50 years from now. This is a REALLY GOOD and TRUE MOVIE, AND I advise that you have to see it.
there was a website that was posted for anyone who would wish to know more about this issue...
www.climatecrisis.net
just wanted 2 put my 2cents in about it....
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS ISSUE????
I know the thing behind the film is real, I mean the deestruction of the planet....but it has been used by Gore (with not so much success) to have an alternative message to the war-freak US people who want to fight alongside with Bush for freedom and democracy..
As for the rest Gore is just another plain bullshitting politician. A plain ignorant and arrogant arsehole..(just like the others)

Unpimp Al Gore's Ride
Al Gore has gone green - there is no doubt. Everyone knows he is hot on the trail of global warming, only recently unveiling his global warming plan.
Gore proposed a Carbon Neutral Mortgage Association ("Connie Mae," to echo the familiar Fannie Mae) devoted to helping homeowners retrofit and build energy-efficient homes. He urged creation of an "electranet," which would let homeowners and business owners buy and sell surplus electricity.
"This is not a political issue. This is a moral issue -- it affects the survival of human civilization," Gore said in an hour-long speech at the New York University School of Law. "Put simply, it is wrong to destroy the habitability of our planet and ruin the prospects of every generation that follows ours."
Al Gore has liberals around the country in a state of revolutionary ecstasy with his Inconvenient Truth. Indeed it is inconvenient - for Al Gore.
There is only one thing wrong with Al Gore's plan and Al Gore's morality. He doesn't live them.
Take Al's modes of transportation. He claims to live a carbon-neutral lifestyle, but I don't think that includes the private jet he uses to get around the country. Then there are his houses:
Public records reveal that as Gore lectures Americans on excessive consumption, he and his wife Tipper live in two properties: a 10,000-square-foot, 20-room, eight-bathroom home in Nashville, and a 4,000-square-foot home in Arlington, Va. (He also has a third home in Carthage, Tenn.) For someone rallying the planet to pursue a path of extreme personal sacrifice, Gore requires little from himself.
Then there is the troubling matter of his energy use. In the Washington, D.C., area, utility companies offer wind energy as an alternative to traditional energy. In Nashville, similar programs exist. Utility customers must simply pay a few extra pennies per kilowatt hour, and they can continue living their carbon-neutral lifestyles knowing that they are supporting wind energy. Plenty of businesses and institutions have signed up. Even the Bush administration is using green energy for some federal office buildings, as are thousands of area residents.
But according to public records, there is no evidence that Gore has signed up to use green energy in either of his large residences. When contacted Wednesday, Gore's office confirmed as much but said the Gores were looking into making the switch at both homes. Talk about inconvenient truths.
This is not all that surprising really. The liberal elite mentality is based upon a belief that their ideals and policy are for the masses - not for smart people who make sure the masses are cared for. Al Gore presses upon us the framework in which we should live. Those things don't apply to those who reside on Mt. Olympus. The gods live by other rules.
