GoreLover:
BLITZER: I want to get to some of the substance of domestic and international issues in a minute, but let's just wrap up a little bit of the politics right now.
Why should Democrats, looking at the Democratic nomination process, support you instead of Bill Bradley, a friend of yours, a former colleague in the Senate? What do you have to bring to this that he doesn't necessarily bring to this process?
GORE: Well, I will be offering - I'll be offering my vision when my campaign begins. And it will be comprehensive and sweeping. And I hope that it will be compelling enough to draw people toward it. I feel that it will be.
But it will emerge from my dialogue with the American people. I've traveled to every part of this country during the last six years. During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet. I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country's economic growth and environmental protection, improvements in our educational system.
During a quarter century of public service, including most of it long before I came into my current job, I have worked to try to improve the quality of life in our country and in our world. And what I've seen during that experience is an emerging future that's very exciting, about which I'm very optimistic, and toward which I want to lead.

According to my father-in-law (hates Bush, would rather cut his tongue out than give the man a compliment, lives 30 miles from the Bush ranch ), the Bush ranch is not disconnected from the grid but does have geothermal heating, cooling, wastewater recycling, and does have a wind generator.

Yea his care for the "common guy" was instilled early on, while his mother sang the 'union label lullaby' to him as a baby.

Hate to break it to ya sport, but the Gore family aint exactly starvin' either. His dad was a very powerful senator back in the day, who, if memory serves, voted AGAINST desegregation and the equal rights amendment.

Of course,it was only a Peon in this life trying to win favor from the greatest Global Warming Advocate ever.

Kudo's to lowrance and airport security for calling the Moron on the carpet, the AA ding bat who let him and his buddies get a free pass should be terminated. :angry:
Gores private jet must have been held up in Tijuana for that superior maintenance check the mexicans are notorious for.

And you know this how? Did you have dinner at their house? Invited over for a chat…. What? Like Bush, Cheney, Clinton, Reagan …. Are all down to earth guy next door kind of guys right? Bush has some good ol'e boy characteristics but I thought I read an article that most of that is an act (not sure though). Clinton by most accounts is a pretty amiable guy but I don't see him getting out at a habitat for humanity and swinging a hammer like Jimmy and Roslyn Carter do. Cheney and Reagan are/was so arrogant it makes me ill just thinking about it.
I have said it several times and I'll keep saying it. If you think your parties sh1t does not stink as bad as my parties, you are delusional. At least I know my party has a bunch of numb-nutz, you seem to think yours is run by brain surgeons. How you arrive at that conclusion is beyond me but hey, have at it if it makes you happy.
