Link Blogs Note
Linkblogs links below go offsite. To keep a copy of .Common Sense active, use control+click, control+shift or control+shift+clickThe Above Linkblogs Might Contain "Borrowed" links.
Linkblogs do not substantially contribute traffic to my blog that I can discover. They all go offsite, and are often accessed from my blog. It's possible to access them from the RSS according to my settings. Still, even if I were to get ads clicking on a linkblog from the RSS won't drive more people to my blog than otherwise because they leave my resources. (Note to self, do more posts, less LBs with sources I find). I explain because I sometimes borrow links from people at Twitter, and often forget who put them up. (To fellow Twitterers: If you have a link to your blog, I will point it there, but Twitter, being impermanent, cannot hold your link for people to discover from there. I only 'borrow' them to get news out to as many people as I can who might not have seen the reports and videos found by the smart people I follow at Twitter or find in search rooms.Quick News

Al Gore Invests Heavily in Climate Change Businesses?
That is just so unlike our founding fathers who vowed to use, in an effort to create a new nation based on increased personal freedom, "our lives, our fortunes, our sacred ..." Oh wait.
BTW, isn't it true that if there's no private investment in climate change fighting industries then the government would be forced to pay for it all. So Al Gore is saving us money, but that's not good enough for Oklahoma's Senator Inhofe.
And most of Mr. Gore's money seems to have come from other investments he undertook after leaving his career in governmen.
Excerpt NY Times report linked below:
...When he left government in early 2001, he listed assets of less than $2 million, including homes in suburban Washington and in Tennessee.
Since then, his net worth has skyrocketed, helped by timely investments in Apple and Google, profits from books and his movie, and scores of speeches for which he can be paid more than $100,000, although he often speaks at no charge.
This is an example of the right wing talking points pushers' ability to get all their arguments put out by the mainstream press. We could be working on accelerated progress, but the mainstream news lets itself get hijacked by stupid assertions from the right, and unable to think themselves out of a paper bag to resolve the issue.
See New York Times "Gore’s Dual Role: Advocate and Investor " if you haven't heard the same argument pursued by the right on various news programs, in papers, and through other mass media.
