That alone is enough to make our sides ache with giggles. As Twitchy reported, Al Gore sold his floundering and failing Current TV to Al-Jazeera, after turning Glenn Beck down.
Gore turns down Glenn Beck to buy and air in 60 million homes but agrees to sell to Al Jezzera and line his pockets with oil money!

Delicious: Al Gore’s Current TV to be bought by Al Jazeera, the state-owned media company of oil rich Qatar. Make your own jokes, people.

And joke, they did! After pausing to catch their breaths.

Irony.Climate change guru Al Gore sells his Current TV to Al Jazeera, supported by oil kingdom.
— Dusty Rhodes (@AuditorRhodes) January 3, 2013
So, the king of global climate warming change has sold out to evil oil producers? Hence forth, Al Gore shall be synonymous with hypocrite.

The sale of Current.TV to Al Jazeera just shows you how full of shit Al Gore is. Mr. Global Warming just got his payday from oil money.

Seriously, who had Gore emerging as slickest snake oil salesman from THAT administration? Competition works!
— KUMBAYAAAAAAA (@stephenkruiser) January 3, 2013
I should probably cook dinner. I don’t have any of that Al Gore oil money to dine out with.
— KUMBAYAAAAAAA (@stephenkruiser) January 3, 2013
Bada-Zing! But, wait! There is even more hypocrisy and subsequent delicious mockery.
@stephenkruiser I still want to know if the deal actually closed on 12/31 to save Al Gore some taxes on those filthy oil profits.
— Tom Reynolds (@Beregond) January 3, 2013
Hahaha. Al Gore accepted $100M of big oil money and pushed the deal through to avoid “Obama’s” tax hikes? Love it.

Al Gore, you were a MAJOR advocate for higher taxes to help the country. I ask you to stall your deal so you can pay your fair share! #TCOT
— Republican Believer (@cubfanbeerguy) January 3, 2013
I thought Al Gore would be one of those liberals who would GLADLY pay more in taxes for his fair share.. freebeacon.com/gore-pockets-1…

It’s been said by plenty of people but I find it hilarious that Gore wanted his TV deal done in 2012. What about your fair share Al?!
— dsmtrader (@dsmtrader2) January 3, 2013
“Fair share” for thee, but not for me! Nor for his second chakra. Eww.
Big Oil rocks. Right, Al Gore and Matt Damon? #glasshouserules

News: Current TV was just acquired by Al Jazeera. Poetry: Gore’s network bought w oil money.
— Ivan Kenneally (@daily_witness) January 3, 2013

— Tony I AM A TEXAN (@TonyG916) January 3, 2013
Al Gore’s current TV is bought with oil profits. Oh my goodness! Please tell me more about the Bush’s relationship with the Saudis!
— Demetrius Minor (@dminor85) January 3, 2013
Funny how prominent climate activists seem very happy to take money from oil rich Arab nations. Looking at you Al Gore. #fb

Wonder if anyone at the Church of Climate Change has qualms about the Goracle cashing out with oil money?
— Dana Loesch (@DLoesch) January 3, 2013
Heh. Of course not. But hurt, widdle feelings, frantic spinning, and lashing out will commence.
Really butthurt that Al Gore sold out to oil money -> @prometheus4us
— RB (@RBPundit) January 3, 2013
Some good news? “Fair share” profits should be coming our way, right?
If my math is correct, my fair share of Als Gore & Jazeera deal is $97. Coming for your fracking movie dough next, Damon! #CashOnlyNoChecks

Thanks, Al!
