Gore takes cash for water campaign from chemical firm
 
Al Gore, the self-styled squeakiest-clean and deepest-green politician in American history, has some explaining to do this weekend. His environmental organisation has taken money to raise awareness about the need for clean water from a controversial chemicals company involved in the aftermath of one of the world's worst pollution disasters.

2. You may think of Dow Chemical as the company behind Bhopal, but it has a much worse past.  It supplied napalm to the US, which was used to burn civilians in the Vietnam war.  When I went to college, some colleges refused to let Dow do recruitment on their campuses for that reason.

Explanation - dirty water kills people. Dirty money doesn't.

That's actually possible. I'm guessing that Mr. Gore has a staff that handles the day-to-day; could be his office mgr (or equivalent) deposited the check without him even being aware of its existence.
