I don't know anything about his personal energy usage other than what
the Right says about it, and I've learned not to trust anything they
say (cf. the new verb "to Swiftboat someone") unless it's confirmed
somewhere else.


I just did some googling on this and came up with the following

You have to read both pages to get the full picture; then you can
decide for yourself whether he's a hypocrite.

Personally, I'd like to see his energy usage compared with other folks
of comparable wealth, not with that of the average American.





It's okay for him. Check the snopes site for comments.
