What Gore is doing is not Capitalism. It's manipulating the entire U.S.A. to get rich. Internationally they are catching on to the B.S. Our gov. keeps it going for there own personal gain.

This is DEFINATELY not Capitalism. It's a bunch of crooks who have power to destroy.

What bankers/WallStreet/large corporations are doing is not Capitalism. It's manipulating the entire U.S.A. to get rich. Internationally they are catching on to the B.S. They keep it going for thEIR own personal gain.

This is DEFINiTELY not Capitalism. It's a bunch of crooks who have power to destroy.

NewsBusters has pictures of the house and Glenn talks about it on radio today.( Transcript, Insider Audio)
Algore has increased his net worth from $2 million in 2000 to $100 million in 2010. I think he has a lot of money to put back into the climate thing since all that money came from his climate crap.
