Al Gore is a Robot … and a Hypocrite

Wow, what a shocker. Another wannabe hippie shows his true colors, and it’s not even remotely green. Unless, of course, you count all the green he’s raking in from telling everyone that he is green, ala making a movie about the environment, preaching at the Oscars, and just generally acting like a stiff douche to the converted sheep herds that makes up those who toils away in the vast universe of Hollywoodland (it’s located somewhere around Uranus, you know). But that’s Al Gore for ya. The dudes over at What Would Tyler Durden Do had this story about how Al Gore’s mansion (yeah, that’s right, the guy who preaches environmental conservatism lives in a friggin mansion, not to mention his other two houses somewhere in the States) consumes 20 times the electricity of the national average citizen. Please to continue reading article…

Via WWTDD: The Tennessee Center for Policy Research says today that Al Gore, who won an Academy Award last night for his film about global warming and the importance of energy conservation, uses 20 times the national average to power his Nashville mansion. What’s more, his use has increased since the release of “An Inconvenient Truth”.

Gore’s mansion consumes more electricity every month than the average American household uses in an entire year, according to the Nashville Electric Service (NES). The average household in America consumes 10,656 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year, according to the Department of Energy. In 2006, Gore devoured nearly 221,000 kWh—more than 20 times the national average. Last August alone, Gore burned through 22,619 kWh—guzzling more than twice the electricity in one month than an average American family uses in an entire year. As a result of his energy consumption, Gore’s average monthly electric bill topped $1,359. Since the release of An Inconvenient Truth, Gore’s energy consumption has increased from an average of 16,200 kWh per month in 2005, to 18,400 kWh per month in 2006. Gore’s extravagant energy use does not stop at his electric bill. Natural gas bills for Gore’s mansion and guest house averaged $1,080 per month last year … In total, Gore paid nearly $30,000 in combined electricity and natural gas bills for his Nashville estate in 2006.

Frakkin political robots. You can never trust those automatons, especially if they hail from Hollywood.
