Gore the godfather of the internet?

Sure, sure, and the world is peace.

Some lies just won't die.

I am surprised that Gore hasn't claimed to be the godfather of soul. But then James Brown would probably kick his butt.

Hasn't Algore figured out that the world ended three years ago due to global warming? Wasn't that his prediction?

What a numbskull.

Al gore, like so many in politics, likes the sound of their own voice.

Guess I'll have to switch to Yahoo. Especially since Jason Calacanis wants to turn this popstand into a virtual RushRoom where everyone must be nice to the BushBots. No way will we be so tolerant of the intolerant, dude! No way will we concede that being strenuously opposed bigoted sexist misanthropic fascists and their political party is somehow impolite! No way will be bow to corporate advertising over substance!

I bounce around the different blogs for interesting topics.

This is the least active one. The answer is still the same. Nobody cares about Algore. Boooring.

Tobacco puts money in my pocket - YEEEEEEEE! Tobacco is bad - DUH-YEEEEEE!

Abortion rights are good / bad - what day is it? HOOYAHHHH!

Let's prevent the media (liberally skewed)from publishing anything about the environment that doesn't support my position because I am fighting the good fight. HARGGHHH!

Let's take some chinese money and spend it. WAAAHCHOWWWW!

Our new platform can be "anti-Bush is an ideology" GWBEEEE!

Accuse the other side of hating us - EEEEEEYOWWWWWWWWWWW!

Divide & conquer but accuse them of it - BLURGHGEEE!

Must have a recountYEEEEE-but we would lose a recountNOOOOO!

OK - Just pose for a recount and then we can still use the argument that we were robbed - GEGGEGGEEEEBLEEEEEE!

See you Bill I can't support you anymore - HILLAREEEEEEEEE!

My head is becoming the size of Teddy's - YOWEEEEEEEE!

Waffles are good for the environment-YUMMEEEEEEEEE!

Again the master of disguise has misquoted his opponent and questioned any opposing view as anti American or anti Freedom. This is the actual crux of the problem I have with the tactics you use to defend the sometimes legitimate points that you make. Anyone that is not anti-Bush is not un-American or pro-Taliban. This is an obvious attempt on your part to introduce the fear that you try to monger in to a discussion that could be fruitful. Look beyond your hate and try to look at the obvious examples of anti American behavior in this country-such as terrorism-and argue your point without lies and hatred toward the other side. It is much more effective. Oh, and by the way, my exact quote was (please don't misquote me or lie about my words)this is for clarification purposes-it is a simple thing-copy and paste

-that way you won't get it wrong AGAIN...
