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.

16. 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".

17. 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.

18. Did he fly in a battery-operated plane? Fake.

19. 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?

20. 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!

22. He should have traveled by stage coach. How can he go on and on leaving a "carbon foorprint" (HATE that stupid term)
when he leaves the biggest one! He sure doesn't practice what he preaches. Why should we believe a thing he says?

23. Every time I hear the name, "Al Gore," it makes me want to jump in my SUV and drive around throwing disposable cups out the window. Of course before I leave the house I'll make sure to turn on all the lights, open the windows and crank up
the AC so I can cool the town. Ahhhhh, good times.

24. A typical politician who lives the saying "Don't do as I do, do as I say." The "rules" for the rest of us never seem to apply to them do they?

25. @6 Joe, your comment would make sense if this story was last week. Check the dates you moron.

I can't believe anyone with a brain actually listens to Al Snore. He has one of the largest carbon footprints in the world. He should re-title his snore fest to do as I say not as I do. I would also like to know his reasoning for changing it from Global Warming to Climate Change.

27. I didn't know Southwest had green airplanes. I am sure that was a green limo, too. Do as I say, not as I do.
