Perry, you said:
I don’t see the logic in this. Gore has limited amount of time and if he spends his time meeting with CEOs and heads of states and convinces them to reduce pollution from factories and power plants, he would do much more good than working on his own house. Gore’s most useful contribution is as an “evangelist” for the environment.
Geez, Perry, yet another free pass for Gore. First, you gave him a free pass because he is rich and now you give him one because he is busy. Come on! Did you really think I imagined Gore up on his roof with a tool belt slung around his hips? Rich, busy people have it much easier than us regular folks when it comes to home improvement. They hire it done. Simple, huh? What excuse are you going to come up with for Gore now? Maybe he is going to come up a with cold, lose his voice and be unable to tell his assistant to hire people to retrofit his house.
There are all sorts of things that can be done besides cutting down trees, Perry.
I remember a story about a cop, famous for giving DUIs, who received a DUI himself. I had a similar reaction to that story as I did to this one.
