What is it that Al Gore is doing?
I keep hearing that Al Gore is doing some kind of volunteer work, but I see no links or pictures. What is it that he is doing?

3. He'll be in Portland next week, that much I know.
He's giving some sort of presentation on the environment. I don't remember details now, but I'll be there to see what he has to say.

Gawd, I wish the guy who was elected in 2000 had taken office.

5. He chartered a plane...
And flew out many of the sickest victims. And tried to keep the press from finding out...

When they did find out, and Fox New shoved a microphone in his face he refused to talk to them.

He just got on that plane and flew them back to his home state and safety.

7. Last Saturday, Al Gore had two commercial airliners chartered to fly to
NOLA and pick up patients at the hospital there run by the doctor that saved his sons life. Can't remember details, anyone?

Anyways- FEMA stopped him. FEMA held the planes on the tarmac until GWB could get on the ground.

Oh- and it cost Gore a few million dollars that he paid for from HIS OWN POCKET!
