I do not begrudge anyone their extravagances or wealth, but stop telling me that my SUV (figurative - I don't actually own an SUV) is going to kill the planet while you heat and cool a 10000 square foot home (among other things).
As the great Civil War General James Longstreet once said; "You can't lead from behind".

If Gore wants us to follow him, he better get out in front to lead the charge!
