Subject: A TALE OF TWO HOUSES

Amazing that we have not seen this in the media... 
No, on second thought, not amazing as they don't like the truth.

I checked this out on Snopes.com.. They say it's completely true.  Here is the link if you want to check it for yourself.

Note:The real Al Gore House/The real George Bush House

A Tale of Two Houses

<image0011.jpg>

House #1
A 20 room mansion ( not including 8 bathrooms ) heated by
natural gas. Add on a pool ( and a pool house) and a separate guest house, all heated by gas. In one month this residence consumes more energy than the average American household does in a year. The average bill for electricity and natural gas runs over $2400. In natural gas alone, this property consumes more than 20 times the national average for an American home. This house is not situated in a Northern or Midwestern "snow belt" area. It's in the South.


House #2
Designed by an architecture professor at a leading national university. This house incorporates every "green" feature current home construction can provide. The house is 4,000 square feet ( 4 bedrooms ) and is nestled on a high prairie in the American southwest. A central closet in the house holds geothermal heat-pumps drawing ground water through pipes sunk 300 feet into the ground.

The water (usually 67 degrees F.) heats the house in the winter and cools it in the summer. The system uses no fossil fuels such as oil or natural gas and it consumes one-quarter electricity required for a conventional heating/cooling system. Rainwater from the roof is collected and funneled into a 25,000 gallon underground cistern. Wastewater from showers, sinks and toilets goes into underground purifying tanks and then into the cistern. The collected water then irrigates the land surrounding the house. Surrounding flowers and shrubs native to the area enable the property to blend into the surrounding rural landscape.

~~~~~
HOUSE #1 is outside of Nashville , Tennessee ; it is the abode of
the "environmentalist" Al Gore.

HOUSE #2 is on a ranch near Crawford,
Texas ; it is the residence the of the President of the United States ,
George W. Bush.

An "inconvenient truth"? This is not about Bush or Gore, this is about truth in politics, media, and our lives.

I don't care what side of the fence you rest your pole, or hang your hat. Veterans and Americans can no longer stand this kind of hypocrisy.  If our leaders and politicians will not walk the talk it is time to get rid of them. Vote them out.
