Wow, once again the point it totally missed

You really have to reply to the issue on the table jpeaceokc, but because I do practice what I preach (as is the case with Mr. Gore), I'll respond to yours in order:

1. You said: "I haven't seen an Inconvenient Truth, and I won't see it, because every time I look at Al Gore, I see the ghosts of several hundred thousand Iraqi civilians"

We're talking about his actions on Global Warming advocacy not Iraq.  Additionally, the last time I checked it was the Pres that holds the decision cards not the VP (Mr. Cheney's case not withstanding).

I've aslo addressed the inability of the right wing skew the Gore issue at The Conscious Earth

2. You said: "I think that individual choices do matter. If people don't walk their talk, then they have no authenticity."

He is walking the walk.  That is the whole point.  Al Gore practices what he preaches, but Schweizer lied by saying he didn't, and used false evidence to support his claims.  

3. You said: "I am not impressed that he is buying "carbon offsets" to reach some kind of carbon neutral zone.  Are they anything other than an accountants trick?"

No they are not an accountants trick, but if that isn't good enough for you, Mr. Gore is also installing photo voltaic cells in his home, and buying green energy from his utility provider.  

4. You said: "I am hoping that as things progress"

I do to, and the first things we need before progress can be made is for people to stop engaging in baseless character assualts on true leaders and for them to keep their eye on the ball when engaged in debate.  I think your comment came up short on both fronts.  On Peter Schweitzer, Al Gore, and hypocrisy posted 3 years, 3 months ago 12 Responses
