i never understand the venom for al gore. never has more incon sequential milk toast politician -- aside from hillary who i feel all of the venom republicans used to feel for him was dumped on her. yes he is probably a hipocrite, but this article is suspect. they started off with the tried and true lie of a cliche that here is the guy that invented the internet. no, hue he said he created legislation to allow the internet to exist. the two people that invented the internet agreed with him. and yet they started with that. if you are going to attack al gore, stop with the internet crap. everyone in the post is watching right now and listening to me. >> i just take notes. >> i can't believe that during that whole point you were punching pinch. >> well i was padding him. as if to say way to name your sources. >> i don't think there was any venom for al gore. it was comedy. i always saw him as, ever since the dishonest movie, he is like a huckster who is running a medicine show. i never felt anger toward him. i will tell you where

make yourself comfortable. >> media coverage of the al gore al-jazeera story. >> ignored al gore selling his far left network to al-jazeera. scant mention. msnbc in prime time didn't mention it at all. are you surprised? what if mitt romney sold one of his companies to al-jazeera? thing the knacnational news med would have ignored it? they would not. they would have been his tysteh. this proves how corrupt the national media is same standards are not applied to republicans and democrats. liberals are favored big time. one guy who addressed the issue is writer fill mush niphil mush. >> as a private citizen gore should not have been made a make such a transaction unless he was a certified foreign agent. the company of gunner owns al-jazeeraful but mushnick says there is no federal law of prestricting the sail of a cable network to to a foreign government. that's an example of what we do here favorable reporting even though it is not somebody we have use for. he was correct when he wrote this. gunn >> the most back breaking jobs in oil fields are held by labors shipped from africa and asia

gore wouldn't give him the time of day. a year later, gore sells it.kay he got 500 million bucks but he didn't know that when glenn beck first offered in. why is al gore going with anti-american, anti-christian, anti-jewish, anti-israeli, anti-everything operation instead of glenn beck? why? glenn beck is a good american. what is motivating gore? >> you have to try to get him on the show, but this is the equivalent during world war ii of turning over american broadcast facilities to tokyo rose. i mean, they were the enemies. and we are still at war with terrorism, islamic terrorism today. we have film footage that we've produced for accuracy in media showing terrorists who were captured in iraq, who killed american soldiers, who said that they came to iraq to kill americans because of al jazeera. this network has american blood on its hands and we call on the congress of the united states to investigate this deal before it goes through completely and we're urging congressman michael mccaul, chairman of the house homeland security committee to open hear

backdoor wheelings and dealings you know after i saw gore's documentary an inconvenient truth when i was in college i love the theater thinking oh my god we only have ten years left to live on earth but then i looked a little deeper and i learned that al gore might have a stake in the fear he was propagating according to a two thousand and nine new york times report gore invested a whopping seventy five million dollars a little company named silver spring networks which produces the hardware and software that makes the electricity grid more efficient and surprisingly the deal paid off in a big way when not too far down the road the u.s. government announced that it would spend three point four billion dollars in smart grid grants and five hundred sixty million dollars of which would then ding ding go directly to al gore's investment company silver springs networks or how about the fact that mr gore's partnership with a startup software company harra whose profit motive set off the cap and trade legislation allowed the company to tap into a two point five billion dollar market as corp
