I'm not kidding, take a look on the write up I put together documenting this at [greenscreencinema.com]

Actually I think he was a photojournalist while in the Army, in a non-combatant military position. I'd guess that strings were pulled to get him a (mostly) desk job because the shooting part of the conflict, well, that was dangerous and involved lots of bullets and explosions.

Awesome pic, he does look like he's going to "cup da balls".

]]> <![CDATA[Al Gore, Kleiner Perkins raising $400 million green fund]]> @raincoaster: I believe my statement is still factual for his personal wealth (although it looks like he was worth closer to $2m). Just because he comes from old wealth doesn't mean he has it.

]]> <![CDATA[Al Gore, Kleiner Perkins raising $400 million green fund]]> Look carefully at this photo. The truth is, he was fondling nylon Truck Nutz in his mind, while all the time discussing Global Warming. He is a crafty dog, never let him fool you into thinking otherwise.

]]> <![CDATA[Al Gore, Kleiner Perkins raising $400 million green fund]]> @tanooki2003: You would do a lot better if you questioned more things instead of being so closed-minded. Fools like you are why the scientific method has been run over roughshod on this issue.

Your level of ignorance is only superseded by your hypocrisy.

"the rest of the world around us are making their stands in trying to help make the earth last a little longer"

Are you mental? The rest of the world is still riding 2 stroke motorcycles!
You think they give a crap about the environment? PLEASE!
I met Al Gore too... during the green summit in Lake Tahoe many moons ago... He was riding in an environmentally friendly 40' Scarab!

]]> <![CDATA[Al Gore, Kleiner Perkins raising $400 million green fund]]> @dalejo: He was a very rich man before. And if he were greedy, why would he have become a photojournalist in Vietnam? Short, easy road to riches it is and was not.

But: Is it just me, or is he starting to look like L.Ron Hubbard?

]]> <![CDATA[Al Gore, Kleiner Perkins raising $400 million green fund]]> @dalejo: Believe what you want. One thing that you manage to forget is that the rest of the world around us are making their stands in trying to help make the earth last a little longer where as most of the ignorant American pro-Bush fools who live on big oil will throw any stupid excuse to think global warming is a crock, only because it just might hurt their greedy pocketbooks. There are rich business men and women who use that excuse and there are the other 70% even more ignorant middle class and poor families who do nothing but whine, gripe, and complain about all of these problems but yet refuse to lift a finger to do their damn part in helping out with solutions. Also what is even more sad is that those of you who are too lazy "busy with work ...blah blah blah" would rather believe that this Global Warming issue is all BS and Al Gore is just another scam artists trying to make millions off of the issue of "being green". You really need to start reading news that is published from outside of NA such as Europe, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Greenland, and the UK. The US media is and always will be totally biased. It might actually surprise some of you who think nothing is wrong with how we live and pollute without a care in your mind. You also need to travel outside of the USA and start exploring the rest of the world like Al Gore has.

I have met Al Gore in person when I was visiting in Indonesia and he made a visit there. One thing that I do know is that he is serious about trying to change the way the US pollutes and emits their high levels of greenhouse gasses. If you think he is so wrong in trying to get us to become less wasteful then instead of bitching about Al Gore or preparing your yet developmentally challenged ignorant reply (flame)towards me I would challenge you do do something more besides putting your cigarette in the trash vs throwing it out the car window.

What's with the hatin' on Al anyway? I understand, he's the poster child for the environmental movement now, but can't we all agree that the environmental movement is kinda important and that it needs a poster child?
