Al Gore is richer than Romney thanks to Current TV sale

Al Gore is richer than Romney thanks to Current TV sale. “Gore now has a personal fortune of $300 million… That puts him ahead of … Mitt Romney, whose estimated $230 million left him vulnerable to charges…” Al made big money off of big (Arab) oil and has a carbon footprint the size of a brontosaurus, but he worships in the Church of the Left which grants him remission from punishment. Isn’t modern religion wonderful? Not at all like that Middle Ages bunk.

If their was any doubts that Al Gore was in this strictly for the money, this should take care of them.

Realize that he earned almost nothing. He was born into & has traded on his wealth & political influence. A fat, drunken lottery winner is more respectable.

  It is true and agreed even someone that wins the lotto is probably more respectable than he is

    You don't have to lie to win the lottery.

Surely he plans to take all that oil money and purchase carbon offsets to launder the money and his conscience...

Gore is the L Ron Hubbard of globull warming.
Now, will he pay his fair share, under the NEW tax rate?

You make a good point. Some religions are better than others in the eyes of the Left. Differences abound though like Romney didn't make money out of his religion and he gives a tithe to his Church. Gorey essentially (among others) created the religion in order to get rich and with increasing hypocrisy has done NOTHING to give back to his religion as he contributes to the problems with his excesses. It is really annoying but que sera sera...
