Former vice-president 50 times more wealthy

Tyler — Al Gore is now 50 times richer than he was when he left office in 2001. Much of that due to his constant push for the theory of global warming, and his investments in green-energy firms subsidized by the Obama administration.

East Texans asked: is Gore promoting global warming for his own personal gain? They answer back to our news partner: KTBB and host Garth Maier.

Don, it that what I said?( that because you can not 'see' it it is not true?).Not.!

Mitt has a "blind' trust like ALL people in elected office;therefore he does NOT control it nor any trades ( Obama also has one...by law).

God & Global warming are in 2 different categories. You are comparing orange & apples. They do not compare.

"blind' trust ....if you think those people in elected office do not know where their i repeat THEIR money is being invested or has been invested then I have a bridge in the Mojave for sale.

Global Warming has not been"PROVEN"....it is still a theory.( 2 things are proven 1.Gravity;2. Centrifical force). The last 16 years of data for this is missing.
Theories can be workable( Like 'electricity') but still no one knows how electricity works but people use it all the time..

Gore was in on Google from the beginning & made most of his $$ from Google. Still owns a bunch. He could very well be a lobbyist for the indunstry(Biden's son is)

So you are saying that if you can not see the Global Warming then it can not be true? Have you seen GOD, Jesus Christ or the very air you breath? Do you believe they exist?

Doesn't that make him one of the evil 1%? Oh, wait! He's a Democrat. Therefore it doesn't matter if and what evils he commits. The ends justify the means.

I havn't heard him complain about paying taxes like the T-Party/Republicans do. Gore must be a true American who doesn't mind supporting America.

He's not complaining because, like half of Obama's cabinet, I'd bet he's not paing the taxes he owes.

AND MITT ROMNEY IS STILL MAKING MONEY OFF OF FOREIGN INVESTMENTS IN OIL THAT ARE STILL DOING BUSINESS WITH IRAN AS IT WAS BROUGHT OUT IN THE LAST DEBATE.

At least Gore is investing in American Companies and American jobs.

Are only rich Republicans allowed to make money off causes they push?

First, Global Warming is very credible and caused by human greenhouse emission. Let's get that straight first. The vast majority of the scientific community supports this. Do people make money off worthy causes? Of course. Did Al Gore do it? It's possible. Does this detract from the need to address greenhouse gas emission? No - humanity needs to reduce greenhouse gas emissions!
