Simply that he should be treated not as some hero of virtue but as what he is, a highly paid very visible lobbyist who is making millions of dollars pushing a certain political agenda and everything he says should be seen in that light and should be treated as such as the word of a lobbyist. You choose to ignore LD's last sentience but that really was the heart of the argument however ranty you may have found it.
I think what bothers a lot of people is how rich Gore is getting by telling the rest of we need to sacrafice.

See my final paragraph about people reading things into trzaska's post that he didn't say. And LD's last sentence was precisely what I said it was, bitter ranting without any relation to the truth, at least as far as the people on this board are concerned. Nobody thinks all that highly of Gore that I'm aware of.
Even for AGW supporters, it's all about the other "green".....
