GORE: One big polluter

| July 19, 2017 1:00 AM

In response to Daniel Gressler’s letter, Daniel, you said, “So what if Al Gore is making money? At least he is trying to save the world from human-caused global warming. This also includes 19 other countries trying to do the same thing, except, of course, the United States of America.”

I really wish people would quit showing their ignorance and do some fact checking before spewing false rhetoric. First of all, yes, Al Gore has made boatloads of money by rallying the weak-minded around him; Have you, Daniel, or any other Al believer EVER wondered how Honest Al gets to all these global warming seminars and conferences? It is certainly NOT by bicycle, electric car or even by electric plane. He uses his private jet that spews MORE pollutants into the air than you or I could in 100 years, and, have you seen the MANSION that he lives in? His electric bill for one month ALONE is more than my or your electric bill would be in 10 years.

Have you EVER looked up exactly which countries support the Paris accords? I will help you with that one. The United States contributed $1 billion to the global Green Climate Fund, but the world’s top polluters contributed nothing (only took me five minutes to look THAT one up).

As far as Clinton NOT being elected, at least we don’t have a president who SHOULD be on trial for treason AND murder, among other crimes.
