I’m shocked, shocked I tell you!  During a hearing on climate change and energy policy today, Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) put the screws to former Vice President Al Gore, asking him about his involvement with companies who would benefit from cap and trade legislation.

Al Gore is, shall we say, not amused.
