Default Re: Barak Obama - Heir Apparant

I amn't sure about the Snopes articles. I did a review search on the site and alot of reviewers seem to think it is less than nuetral. But, I will go with it for now and see how it pans out. The info. I pasted from his site's message boards did say that he indeed had a massive "green" project in the works for his house at the time, and has since completed that project. So I don't get how that energy consumption makes sense unless it was before that date.

Let's not even talk about Bush and Kyoto protocol, lol. I remember him saying he opposed it because of the "strain it would put on the economy". I guess he opted to use the economy for cheaper things like the Iraq War. Clinton/Gore left the US treasury with a surplus when they left. Look at the economy now.

I am interested in seeing more about GWB's ranch. Any photos etc.? I am actually pleasantly surprised about his "green" home if this is the case. If it is indeed true, then he is almost the reverse of what you claim Al Gore is: A person who practices it in his home, but not in his office or presidency at all. Food for thought.

I am still awaiting an answer to my most important question which I posted previously.

I don't understand it, what does it matter if all the smears are true? Isn't the overall message noble, selfless? Would it hurt to make people, our kids and our grandkids aware? Do we suddenly stop listening to that song we love if the artist says something we don't agree with?
This discussion also leads to me ask two more of you.

1) Have you seen Al Gore's movie "An Inconvenient Truth"?

2) Do you believe Global Warming is an issue?
