Former Vice President Al Gore accused Republicans Friday of engaging in "political terrorism" by using a government shutdown as leverage to defund ObamaCare.
"The only phrase that describes it is political terrorism,” Gore said at the Brookings Institution, according to ABC News. “Why does partisanship have anything to do with such a despicable and dishonorable threat to the integrity of the United States of America?”
The former vice president also criticized Republicans for threats to link defunding ObamaCare to the debt ceiling, which is set to expire Oct. 17.
"Now you want to threaten to not only shut down our government but to blow up the world economy unless we go back and undo what we did according to the processes of this democracy?” Gore said. “How dare you?”
Gore's "terrorism" comment comes after White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer likened House Republicans to "people with a bomb strapped to their chest" during an interview with CNN Thursday.
"It is not a negotiation if I show up at your house and say, 'Give me everything inside, or I'm going to burn it down.' The Republicans have provided a laundry list of essentially ransom demands," Pfeiffer said....

Some call it terrorism. Some, such as myself, call it exercising checks and balances inherent in our constitution.
In my book one of the worse things about Hanoi John mclame is when he has the audacity to point his damn finger at us and say we are the cause of super partisan politics, when its obvious the dems are the ones bashing with most foul rhetoric.
Now ol algore, he is indeed looking for a new gig, as globull warming no longer pulls in billions for him to skim. Maybe he’s figuring on running again..... maybe team up with Donut Christie.
sounds like gore needs his chakra released again.
Wow the democrats are in full fear mode it’s a good thing.
Obviously,Underdog needs his shakra petted again.
Wow - if a brilliant nobel winner like Al Gore says it, it must be true and I’m wrong..........Nah
“The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the US Government cannot pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that, “the buck stops here.’ Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better.” ~ Senator Barack H. Obama, March 2006

They just start crawling out from under their rocks, don’t they?
