Dealing with Leftists; Rule Number 2:(As Applied to Al Gore)

When observing a slam of a leftist icon [1], a measure of how truthful that slam is, is how [2] much [3] the left [4] screams about it.

Personally, I will take Al Gore more seriously when I see him actually driving one of the thimbles he thinks the rest of us ought to be driving; when I see him giving up his private jets, and his “high consumption lifestyle”. At least, at that point, he will have the virtue of honesty. Maybe.

As it stands, he does not.
