More on Al Gore’s Self-Serving Plan
July 22, 2008 by marwick
To get an idea of how ridiculous, consider this data from the Energy Information Administration. In 2006 (the last year for which complete data is available), 49 percent of our electricity was generated by coal-fired plants; 20 percent from natural gas, and 1.5 percent from oil. That is, more than 70 percent of all the electricity we have now is generated by the fossil fuels Mr. Gore wants to get rid of. |
The “green” sources Mr. Gore prefers — solar, wind, geothermal — combined produced only 2.3 percent of our electricity. Mr. Gore didn’t mention that he’s invested heavily in companies which produce “green” energy. Neither did the journalists who covered his speech. |
The power grid already is strained by the unwillingness of Democrats to construct electric power plants of any kind. |
And this is without the additional demands that would be imposed on the grid by all electric or plug-in hybrid-electric cars |

Yet the media and Democrats follow Al Gore around like lemmings.

Are you retarded? The whole point is WE ARE USING TOO MUCH FOSSIL FUEL. And also WE NEED MORE RENEWABLE ENERGY. Are you really that stupid or are you perhaps the last person on earth NOT to agree with BOTH of the above statements. Complete moron…
