Liberal hypocrisy is hardly news, of course, but this comparison of the Bush and Gore residences is interesting anyway. In brief, the Al & Tipper Gore residence apparently consumes about twenty times as much energy as the average American home, while the George & Laura Bush residence consumes one-quarter of the average.
One of the things I’ve found interesting recently is how my fellow Canadians are all incensed about the American refusal to sign the Kyoto Protocol. But, curiously enough, as they go about spluttering in rage, Canadian greenhouse gas emission levels have risen almost twice as fast as American levels (and never mind actually reducing emissions).
Wealthy, high-consuming progressives preaching the virtues of saving the planet to the rest of the world are really getting to me — any chance that we could have some more environmentalists around who actually bother living what they preach?

Sound like a plan, but it is kinda hard (takes some effort) for us anyway.
