Holey shit! This guy's getting pretty fat too! Pretty soon he'll need a DC-10 sized private Gulfstream to fly him to all his important speaking engagements.
What's with all these fat douchebags?!

Do you ever post anything positive? Anything nice? Anything that's not bashing someone/something? Ever post any stoke or the like?
No, douchebag.Quote:

Jabba lives!
That guy's FAT, but just wait - Gore looks like he's gained about 50lbs in the past six months.
Are you sure that's not a chick? And maybe she's pregnant. There are reasonable explanations, you know.Quote:

Al Gore nearly 11 years ago:

Atleast he is going around, standing up for his opinions. Your only opinion in life seems to be that everyone else is wrong.
That's because, for the most part, they are. Gore is "going around" standing up for his opinions in a private jet. Like I said elsewhere, his carbon footprint is bigger than Canada. I don't know about a moron such as yourself, but I tend not to listen to the opinions of hypocrits. And what's with this "opinion" stuff? - I thought GLOBAL WARMING was an indisputable fact?Quote:

Yes, he is, but nowhere near as fat as that Michael Moore guy. Have you seen him?Quote:

For the most part, I agree with this. However, I'm not a "the end justifies the means" kind of guy, so I still think Gore is a complete douche as well as one of the largest (in more ways than one) hypocrit on Earth. I also believe his whole GLOBAL WARMING schtick is all about Al Gore, not the Earth. All this does very little to answer the really important question, which is: just how fat is this lard ass gonna get?Quote:

Where do you get this? What do you think this means? A large part of his message is that you don't have to go through a drastic lifestyle change to make a difference, and he purchases carbon offsets to bring his effective footprint down to zero.Quote:

You can't possibly be that naive. Sorry I won't post a bunch of links, but it's a well known fact that Gore isn't riding his bike to his speaking engagements and living in anything even remotely close to a reasonably sized dwelling. Now if you'll excuse me, I've gotta go throw some more tires on the bonfire. I bought a bunch of carbon offsets a while back and I've gotta even things out. Wow - you are one funny guy.Quote:

He's more than a hero - he's a messiah. My bet is he's also the next President. Either way, he's still a huge blubbertub.Quote:

I'm not only the president of the Michael Moore Diet Plan, I'm also a client.
I asked this in another thread and got no reply so I'll try it here. Please post the verified proof that gore's carbon footprint is so huge. I realize he has flown in a private jet, does that mean he only flies in one or occassionally uses it when he can't make a speaking engagement on commercial? Is it as big as Bush's jet, cause really Gore has a lot more to say of any content than Bush could fly anywhere to release gas.Quote:

Sorry - I don't have enough motivation (nor do I care enough to convince you) to search the interweb for a link to Gore's ridiculous carbon output. If I were sitting in a cubicle on someone else's time like the rest of the rabid link-posters here, maybe I'd be more motivated, but my time is precious. Anyway, it's a fact that the guy lives in a huge mansion and flies around in a private jet. Do an internet search if you don't believe me.
As far as your question "is Gore's jet as big as Bush's" - I don't know and don't care. What kind of jackass question is that? GWB isn't going around like chicken little screaming about GLOBAL WARMING. And Bush isn't anywhere near as fat as Gore.
Finallly saw his movie. I love that hogwash about how his family quit the tobacco business only after they found out smoking caused cancer, like time stood still since that day on his farm. What a load of Bull#$@%.
Put up or shut up. If you're going to spray like a douchebag, then claim you're right, at least try to back it up. Otherwise you're just another windbag. Oh wait...Quote:

Not motivated to prove you're right?!!? Or afraid to prove yourself dead wrong? A big mansion could still be eco friendly. Bush's jet (Air force 1) is most certainly bigger than any jet Gore has and he wouldn't scream about global warming while he's in the pocket of big oil would he. What kind of complete jackass wuss avoidance of the question is your non reply. BTW what kind of lacking any intelligent thought is focusing on the guy's weight. Can you even hear yourself you fucking moron.Quote:

Why do you think it is that you and the legions of TGR douchebag librofascists get so hoarked off by my childish, mean spirited ramblings? Are you looking for approval from me? Are you unable to comprehend how anyone could possibly have a different opinion than your own? Or is it because I dare to state the obvious - that the Messiah of the new religion known as GLOBAL WARMING is pretty fat. I mean how dare I insult Al Gore!
Look - Gore's fat. It's true. Look at any recent picture of him. There's no arguement. I never said that his opinions are invalid because he's a fat bastard. You guys assumed that. You dipshits assume a lot of things. You assume that I only post on douchebag threads and insult people. Truth is I do actually "contriute" from time to time. I've suggested delicious Bass recipes, gear options for tots, recommeded great rock drummers, etc., etc.
You assume that because I'm not in lockstep with your ridiculous librofascist ideas that I'm automatically a right-wing nutjob.Truth is I think abortion is fine, I think religion is dumb (for myself, at least), I have pretty radical views about the environment (not big into trends and hype, tho), etc., etc. I voted for Bill Clinton twice. Of course I also voted for GW Bush, but what the hell was I supposed to do - vote for Gore? Or Kerry?
It's really funny how every time someone starts a thread about how some right-wing douchebag looks like a man or is a junkie, everyone piles on for multiple pages (not that I blame them and not that I don't take part in such bashings) but when someone starts a thread suggesting that Michael Moore or Al Gore is a fat lard, you morons get your little panties in a bunch. Look - I'd rip on the dipshit TGR right-wingers but the truth is there aren't many here. However, there is a huge abundance of thin-skinned, humorless, indignant, dumbass left-wing douchebags. You want me to stop being a mean asshole? You want me to go away? Stop being a moron. You have only yourself to blame.
..and Gore is still a fat hump.
Whoop-dee-fuckin'-doo, he's fat. So fucking what.
Being fat doesn't negate his arguments.
His hypocrisy does.
BTW, if he's elected president...for those of us who can't afford to purchase carbon offsets to maintain our lifestyle - what are we supposed to do? Make do with 16th century lifestyle?
Yeah, but being fat does prove that he's a wide-load.Quote:

Come on be half the man Ann Coulter claims to be and back up your big boy talk. People like you (and her) repeatedly confuse intelligent thought with bombastic comment. Just answer that question with some cold hard facts instead of ducking it and trying to turn the issue into unrelated rants like you do in so many of your threads.
Did a search, couldn't find anything about his carbon footprint approaching canada's. I found some people spewing about his energy usage, and a few more spewing about flying/driving to speaking engagements. I found something about him using 10 or 20 times the energy of the average american. I'm pretty sure there's more than 20 or so Canadians. Even if the average Canadian uses 1/5 the energy the average american does, I'm pretty sure there's more than 100 of them. That's just a guess though.Quote:

I can even recognize the fact that he's done a great deal more than I have or probably ever will to combat global warming.
Would you please quit with the "bigger than Canada" bullshit? It's a ridiculous assertion, especially when your time is too precious to back it up (which is ridiculous in its own right, you spent your Sunday afternoon spewing this shit on TGR and who knows where else).
ps. Nobody cares that he's fat. Nobody disagreed with you or even pretended to care. That's not what this thread is about.
Really? How? I suppose it could be if a few dozen of one's closest friends and relatives are living with you, but otherwise ...?Quote:

Actually, that is what this thread is about. Check out the first post again.Quote:

I thought it was pretty common knowledge now and the facts not really in dispute. I seem to recall when I read/heard about it that the information was accompanied by some explanation by a Gore aide/sympathizer/buddy as to why things weren't, in fact, as bad as they may seem. That seems to be where the point(s) of contention would lie. In any case, really, would it be all that surprising to learn that Gore is an outsized user of energy while preaching the gospel to others? Not to me, but I'm pretty jaded.
I will agree, though, that too much is being made of Gore's girth in this thread. Michael Moore is way fatter and that's what we should be worried about.
I'm sorry. I didn't read this carefully the first time. You spent most of your post proving that Gore's carbon footprint is most certainly not bigger than Canada's or even anywhere close. I hope I'm missing the nuanced humor.Quote:

Carbon offsets are not an impossible concept. They're certainly not THE solution, and not everybody can afford them. I'm not Al Gore's fanboy -- I'm just saying that he made a good movie, many of the points he raised were valid, and that his lifestyle is not as inconsistent with his message as some are whining about.
It isn't about not consuming, it's about consuming responsibly. Bullshit proposition? I don't know, but how about wasting your time on the internet bitching about that instead, jer?
Actually it's what the thread WAS about. Now it's about Jer ducking questions like a 5year old girl caught in a lie.Quote:

To me it's not even in contention what his consumption is because I don't know but I have asked a few times to back up some wild statements. Clearly it's not more than Canada that's just the regular shit drooling out of Jer's mouth. I would like to see data proving it is even 20 times the average american's. It's easy to spew crap and easier still to just accept that crap. It's a bit more responsible to question that crap.
I also agree with Focus that even if consumption is that high it doesn't negate his message any more than being fat does.
His hypocrisy does not make his arguments incorrect. It makes him a hypocrite. I don't like Al Gore, but the things that he presents based upon reputable research and information are not negated by his questionable personal commitment to the cause.Quote:
His hypocrisy does.
