Al Gore's Secret Trip to L.A.

Al GoreA mysterious trip to L.A. by Al Gore now makes sense since TMZ broke the news of his daughter Kristin Gore's divorce.

Here's what we know: The former veep made a covert trip to LAX last weekend. Sources told TMZ details of Gore's Saturday arrival. He blew out of town early Monday.

We're told Gore made some sort of detour to L.A. He flew into the Southwest Airlines terminal -- which typically has regional flights -- picked up four bags of luggage, and left by limo. This was puzzling since the Nobel Prize winner rarely makes a move without alerting the media, and he didn't have any events scheduled in L.A.

But now it makes sense that Daddy Gore came to L.A. to comfort and counsel Kristin. She filed divorce papers on Friday, citing irreconcilable differences.

Well maybe it was a hybrid limo and he flew coach, I image that, since he said that lives would have to be lost instead of using a rare tree with medical possibilities. I am sure this dedicated grease ball will sacrifice his kid's marriage to save some carbon waste.

leave the gun, take the cannolis.:  994 days ago

He;s such a pig.
Did they ever clean up that toxic waste from his families silver mine on their property?
I could put together a better powerpoint presentation than that POS crap he did. To think he won an oscar and a nobel peace prize for that crap is crazy.
we are going down the toilet gang, grab hold of a turd.

As I recall, it is this daughter that drives the gas guzzling Maserati...and I don't think anAL GOREtentive ever goes anywhere by auto if it isn't a limo or in a SUV motorcade....so much for his argument that reducing carbon dioxide emissions is a 'moral issue'....morals are for other people...not for anAL GOREtentive and his progeny

It was a scheduled trip as he was the speaker at a charity dinner last Sunday night. He was the Keynote speaker at the ICRF (Israel Cancer Research Fund)Gala on Sunday May 17th. This event had been planned for many months and was sold out. Thus the trip was not covert at all. He is the site for the ICRF http://www.icrfla.org/gala.html. I must say I am very disappointed that this did not do any investigation as to what Mr. Gore was up to here in LA. A simple Google search would have given you the information.

Poor Kristen, all you asses that feel the need to dog the Gore family obviously know nothing about how caring they are. My prayers go out to Kristen and her wonderful family!!!

Democrats are evil:  994 days ago

This waste of life hypocrite continues to burn tons of fuel on his private jet all awhile condemning you and I for driving our SUV's to work and to transport our family to everyday events. Cap and trade is his baby and while making millions and not changing his lifestyle one bit, you will pay 10 times more for fuel, electricity and natural gas all as disguised taxes designed to rape every single citizen of more of their hard earned money. People that support him are the dumbest POS that hate this country and everything that it stands for. He is the typical liberal Democrat who has contempt for anyone who opposes his view and is the face of evil if there ever was one.

go figure:  994 days ago

Limo-lovin' Al Gore's CAP & TRADE will be another big blow to our economy costing 'every' taxpayer thousands each year. Research the facts online then email or call your reps in D.C. Remind them that they work for YOU,

My daughter told her soon to be ex husband that she is going to cut down on her carbon emissions and stop blowing him. That's the reason why they are getting divorced.

Four pieces of luggage AND a limo? His daughter couldn't pick him up from the airport, or he couldn't use an airport shuttle? Not only did he have the extra luggage (he can afford the money, but was it wise to waste extra fuel?), and then he takes a limo, one of the biggest gas-hogs on the planet. I guess it's a case of "do as I say, not as I do".

Why do you think this is important or any of your business? I would think it would be bad if he didn't support his daughter.

You people really are sleaze bags.

Disgusting way to make a living.

Al Gore doesn't believe in Global Warming based on his actions(private jets, limos, size of homes and the use of energy to run them), so why should I?

Wow:  993 days ago

Gore wants to force us to use dim light bulbs full of mercury and electric cars that have to be rechaged every 45 miles! Not to mention dishwashing detergent that leaves plates dirty and greasy. Ask the poor residents of Wyoming having to smuggle Cascade across the border. Hypocrite!
