Gore: Desire for Keystone Same as Junkies Shooting Up Veins in Toes

Thursday at the annual U.N. Climate Change Conference, former Vice President Al Gore told “Democracy Now” anchor Amy Goodman that the proposed Keystone XL pipeline is comparable to a desperate junkie using toe veins after blowing out their arm and leg veins.

Gore said, “I think its a terrible idea. You know junkies use veins in their toes when the ones in their arms and legs collapse Thats my view of it.” adding, “I kinda think he [Obama] will not approve it.”
