Makes You Wonder
Al Gore, running around the world telling everyone how we're all doomed to an environmental holocaust and when you read between the lines it is because of the Bush Administration's links to oil companies. Yet, the very same Al Gore who can form such compelling arguments has managed to tie his name to an internal report at Apple that basically says, "Yeah, Steve Job was involved in the dating of options, but really it wasn't a big deal." Turns out he broke the law and it is a big deal. Sure, we're all not going to suffer runaway greenhouse effect because of it, but its hard to insinuate dirty business connections against the President while collecting healthy director's fees from a company and effectively giving the CEO a pass when he's dipped his hand in the shareholders pockets for his senior management colleagues.

You either live on the moral highground or hurt yourself falling off of it.
