AlGore=Hypocritus Maximus

The Snake Oil Salesman of the Millenium, Al Gore, showed that John Edwards is not the only one who is a hypocrite on environmental issues this past week when confronted with taking an environmental pledge by a US Senator.
Former Vice President Al Gore refused to take a "Personal Energy Ethics Pledge" today to consume no more energy than the average American household. The pledge was presented to Gore by Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), Ranking Member of the Environment and Public Works Committee, during today's global warming hearing.

Senator Inhofe showed Gore a film frame from "An Inconvenient Truth" where it asks viewers: "Are you ready to change the way you live?"

Gore has been criticized for excessive home energy usage at his residence in Tennessee. His electricity usage is reportedly 20 times higher than the average American household

In fact, here is exactly what was posited to Algore:
Are you willing to make a commitment here today by taking this pledge to consume no more energy for use in your residence than the average American household by one year from today?

Gore refused. And of course he immediately played the victim card. See, these libs are just like the so-called socialists in the heydey of the Soviet Union. Everyone else (but them) must sacrifice for the good of the whole. Uh, no, I don't think so.
