Just when you thought you knew everything.
Yesterday, I was browsing at a used bookstore, one in which everything in the store sells for one dollar-ten thin dimes. By chance, I came across this book moldering on the shelves.
"Joined at the Heart" by Al and Tipper Gore (2002)

To be honest, this was one of Al's myriad accomplishments that had eluded my attention. I knew he was an expert on everything else under the rapidly approaching sun, but an author on how to have a successful marriage?
Far be it from me to crow over the break up of anyone's marriage. It happens to millions of couples every year. However, millions of people don't use their position to write books on how to have a great marriage using themselves as examples. In the case of Al Gore, we can add this to his preaching about how the rest of us should ride a bicycle to work as he travels the world in his private jet. There aren't too many people save for presidents and secretaries of state who leave a bigger carbon footprint than this bag of wind. And while worser and worser ice storms and freezing temperatures blanket the East and Midwest, this boob still tells us that global warming is going to wipe us all out in a few decades unless we follow his radical prescriptions. And all the while, he has turned a tidy profit to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.
Nice work if you can get it.

Ever since Gore left the VP position, he has been able to make millions, as you have indicted. Would love to see who finances Gore's Global Warming pablum. I would bet large that it is the far-left and the political pundits who want the power to control the wealth of the world and the people.

Squid,
That's really what this is all about.
