    That still doesn't explain why his forehead is smoother than Leo's.

    That's Bill Frist you are talking about.

    IIRC, this all came out last year after the movie came out. Kind of funny.

    Is Al Gore related to Ted Haggard?

    Went to the TCPR Web site. Looks like a fiscal conservative group.

    Still, if Gore wants to make a statement, that mansion should have some sort of alternative energy source — solar, wind, whatever. (Considering a lot of my state's power network is on the ground thanks to this weekend's winter storm, everybody should start looking into alternative energy).

    That's fair, but doesn't Al Gore often bring up how the U.S. has 5 percent of the world's population but causes 30 percent of the world's pollution? I can't remember the exact numbers, but it's a common tactic of environmental activists to use that line.

    I'm guessing BYH wrote that sentence in about 8 seconds.

    Forgive me, but you don't need the Enigma machine to decode that last clause.
    Nice of Drudge to get a quote from the subject of the piece.

    It does smack of hypocrisy, but at the same time, I imagine he does quite a bit of his work from home (that's a total guess, but it seems reasonable). If that's the case, it would explain why energy use went up after the movie came out and why he uses more energy than the average American household (along with the 20 bedroom factor).

    Still, if he hasn't already, he should be investing in many of the energy savers he supports in speech and film.
