Al is sweating like a pig! Look at this shirt and forehead! Maybe they couldn't raise enough funds to pay for A/C. Wait--it's only 72º here at the moment...

[Missiekins]

Frankly Scarlet...

Thanks for putting up this thread. I didn't realize this DemocRAT freak show was being televised live today.

Tipper just introduced algore as "the man who - by the way - won the popular vote in Florida in 2000!" *GAG*
They just refuse to get over it!

[TheRedSoxWinThePennant]

I'm surprised how much time they are spending rehashing Nov 2000

im not they have nothing else

[summer]

LOL!

[summer]

You're welcome... :)

I don't think Gore should be heckled. Since 9/11, he has been acting patriotically. The Dems have many figures who are infinitely more worthy of being heckled.

Heck, I hope he gets the 2004 nomination. He would probably lose -- which is good -- and he would probably avoid a humiliating Dem defeat at the polls -- something that might happen with a Hillary, and that I suppose is not so good. But, if, by some fluke, he were to win, I think he would be a lot less bad than most of the Dem alternatives.

or they could run on the cynthia mckinney platform that bush knew about the terrorist attacks

[summer]

(1) environment, (2) economy and (3) American values. Gore said this is how Dems are different than the GOP.

I don't know about that....

[ridensm]

I'm not going to turn this disgusting thing on but let me see if I can guess the platform. Gore really won in 2000, Republicans are using the war to distract people while they destroy America, anyone who isn't white and heterosexual needs more money, Bush's "tax cut" destroyed the prosperity clinton and gore brought.

All served with a heaping dose of diatribe and innuendo.

[summer]

That was a good statement - "In the spirit of patriotism, I speak out today...and we must offer altertantives." That was a good opening. But, Dems never seem to have alternatives. Oops -- already "Right-Wing" and "Dishonest" rhetoric....

[summer]

You should watch because you would gety a chuckle -- Gore asked all the vets to raise their hands. That didn't take long...

[summer]

"right-wing side-wind" -- what is THAT?

[TheRedSoxWinThePennant]

(1) environment, (2) economy and (3) American values

let them run on them when we need oil cuz our arab "allies" cut off our oil supply lets see how the enviromental platform works as far as the economy only so much a pres can do and as far as values the part of clinton and condit need I say more

[ChadGore]

Al is laying an agg.

[summer]

I'll tell you -- Gore is setting up these FL Gov Dem candidates for a big surprise by trying to push environmental issues, because on that issue, Gov. Jeb Bush wins hands down in this state. Gore and other Dems wanted to build an airport in the Everglades. But, Gore is calling the environment a "bedrock" principal of the Dem Party. He will get nowhere with that theme in FL. FL environmentalists have twiced honored Jeb for his environmental leadership.

[ChadGore]

What are there . . .20 people there?

[GnL]

He must have forgot the antiperspirant this morning. He has wetspots under his arms the size of Texas. Disgusting, but about what I expected from this clown.

[summer]

principal = principle

[BigWaveBetty]

Oh my word! He didn't even mention the people who died in the 9/11 attack. Just talked about the soaring towers and a field in Penn., I don't even think he mentioned the Pentagon. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Oh boy, Algore is going tough! He's had enough! So have I, and it's only been talking for 10 minutes.

Now for the lies.......
