Al Gore, Film Critic
Republican National Committee ^ | May 26, 2004

Something to Yak About – Al Gore, Film Critic
Former Clinton veep Al Gore seems to have found a couple of new pastimes to while away his idle hours; reviewing wacky disaster flicks and pounding Republicans. After heaping praise on the movie The Day After Tomorrow, a cinematic tour de force on preposterous ‘global warming’ nonsense, Gore said Tuesday that we humans are “conducting an uncontrolled experiment” on the planet and warned of possible catastrophe. Egad… dial it down a notch…

Al Gore, Policy Critic
When Al Gore isn’t reviewing crazy disaster movies, he’s reviewing government policy. Seems Gore has teamed up with the wild and crazy folks at Move On Dot Org and plans to demand the resignation of some Bush administration officials and a military leader. We all know how thoughtful the Move On crowd is, so The Yak supposes Mr. Gore’s remarks will be met with a commensurate degree of legitimacy. Said Republican National Committee Communications Director Jim Dyke, “Al Gore's political hubris knows no bounds."

Memo to Al: Don’t Quit Your Day Job
After sampling Al Gore’s film and political reviews, the RNC’s Jim Dyke offered Gore his best regards noting, “The last time I saw Al Gore he was sitting in a hot tub on Saturday Night Live. The last time Al Gore made a political decision he endorsed Howard Dean. The last time Al Gore talked about global warming it was one of the coldest days on record in New York City. I wish him well as a movie critic.”

Seriously, How Bad Is It?
Regarding the disaster film, one might expect at least a modicum of science in a film whose plot is presumably based on science, but not so. Scientific reviews of the movie’s premise begin with “physically impossible,” and get only more dismissive after that.

Kerry Taking Heat for Proposing to Shun Boston Nomination
While members of John Kerry’s party are offending millions of Americans with terrorist comparisons, the Gentleman from Massachusetts is doing a pretty fair job of upsetting folks with his cynical idea of not accepting his party’s nomination at the Democrat convention in Boston. (SUGGESTED KERRY QUOTE: “I actually did seek the nomination, before refusing it.”) The idea has already been denounced as questionable by one of his hometown’s biggest newspapers. Even liberal icon George McGovern is telling Kerry it’s a dumb idea. But that’s not the half of it.

Goofy Non-Nomination Plan Could Risk Security
Another of John Kerry’s hometown papers is quoting Democrat sources as saying not accepting the nomination at the July convention could result in a security downgrade for the event. “If there's no nomination at the convention, that could make it like any other political event and Secret Service could pull back,'' one Democratic official warned. “That could be a problem.''

Bostonians Ticked-Off at Kerry
Seems John Kerry’s notion of not accepting his party’s nomination in July is getting under the skin of Bostonians already “grumpy” about street and rail closures during the Democrat convention. Said one disgruntled Boston commuter, “It will inconvenience thousands of people for nothing." That’s John Kerry – a real Man of the People…

Talkers Profile – Ankarlo Mornings, KLIF/Dallas
Darrell Ankarlo of Ankarlo Mornings, “has been described as a combination of People and Time magazines and is viewed as the one talk show in Dallas-Ft. Worth with real substance and variety. Whether it’s a family story or a live report from Afghanistan, Iraq or points unknown, avid fans tune in daily because they never know what they're going to get. But they do know it will be interesting, entertaining and uniquely Darrell.” (SOURCE: KLIF/Dallas)

The Final Yak
“We can only assume that Tom Daschle and Stephanie Herseth's silence on this issue means they agree with Senator Johnson. If they do not they should repudiate these comments immediately. This kind of political hate speech has no place in our electoral process.” (SOURCE: RNC Chairman Ed Gillespie, on Tim Johnson’s ‘Taliban’ comment)

Talk about a target-rich environment!

These days, Ted Kennedy actually looks sober (thinking, not drinking) and sane compared to Kerry & Gore.

Next week I expect Kerry will give a speech at Fenway Park blaming Dubya for the failure of the Red Sox to win the World Serious the past three seasons.

Well, well, well...
I didn't know this little tidbit about the movie "Day After Tomorrow" :

I've read and reviewed the book upon which it is based, The Coming Global Superstorm by Art Bell and Whitley Strieber.

President Gore closer to finding 911 terrorists

BY MAUREEN DOWD

NEW YORK - Although it`s only been three years since 911, President Al Gore today said that the US is getting closer and closer each day to finding those people responsible for the September 11th attacks. At a news conference today the President was asked about this tremendous progress and if it was possible that those responsible might have been in the planes when they crashed on Sept 11th 2001. President Gore said that it was possible but it`s not quite probable yet if they were they only ones responsible. When asked if it was possible that those responsible might possibly be in Afghanistan as part of the Taliban, the President responded that it was possible that those responsible might be in Afghanistan as part of the Taliban but the US needs to be more responsible before that can be solvable. When asked if it was possible that he meant he was being responsible to remain hospitable to our valuble French allies, the President replied that he was being responsible to remain hospitable to our valuble French allies.

Coming back from a fund raiser the President spoke at a fundraiser at a Hasidic community meeting. "I`ve always loved the Amish, and I can assure the Mennonite community that the world will be well protected from terrorist threats from around the globe." When asked if that protection also included the United States, the President responded that it was possible to protect the United States and we should all be responsible to keep an eye out for those who may be hostile. When referring to last weeks deadly VX nerve gas attacks in San Francisco that left 600,000 people dead, and last months dirty bomb atomic explosion that obliterated Berkley killing millions, the President confirmed that those individuals who were responsible will be held accountable, and it is possible that it will be most probable that they will be found. When one harsh individual asked about whether we should really care about losing Berkely since it was never a part of the United States to begin with, the President replied that "We all must be reponsible. Berkely was valuble and it was probable that the terrorist attacks can be solvable." When asked what he was going to do to step up precautions against terrorism, the President said he has increased funding to the EPA and that everyday we are cleaning up the fallout as well as taking better precautions against global warming. "Need I remind the people of the United States that although it is possible that we have probable terrorists who are hostile, we cannot be irresponsible when it comes to global warming. My fight for the enviornment will never cease, and it is for that reason alone why I chose to rip off the Energy Star logo that you find on your refrigerator. That means we all have to save energy, so I remind the American citizens to turn down their thermostats in their refrigerators and make sure that all your air conditioners are freon free.

Coming back from a fundraiser, the President appeared on Oprah last Tuesday which was being taped in Florida, the state that helped him win the election, and talked more in depth about his work for the enviornment. "Our forests are being cut down at an alarming rate, the ozone layer is looking like the bald spot on top of my head, urban development is out of control and the carbon emissions from so many cars are causing global warming. All these are the direct result of over-population and therefore we must absolutely keep ignoring over-population and keep on protesting the logging community, the depletion of the ozone layer, urban sprawl, and global warming." Oprah immediately went into her "black accent mode" and riled up the audience, "Y`all lets hear it for tha greatest President that eva wuuuuzzz boyz!" The crowd began screaming wildly cheering and cheering. Oprah then went on to talk about how close this country came to doom, how close "that guy" meaning G.W. Bush (I shudder at writing it`s name), came to being President and how it was so fortunate that the Supreme court did the right thing and ruled that "not have been punched at all chads" counted as a vote for Al Gore.(This was proven when an electron miscroscope magnified the chads at the atomic level and found that indeed some of the electrons of some of the atoms had moved, therefore qualifying as a vote for Al Gore). When Oprah also pointed out about how fortunate it was that the Supreme court also ruled that all votes for Bush were in fact for Gore because of the severly confusing election machines, saying that it wasn`t fair that people should understand the arrow concept, the President stared blankly at Oprah for a minute then said, "Oh yeah yeah..The arrow concept." Oprah then went on, "I mean who would have known that an arrow pointing to G.W.Bush was a vote for G.W.Bush? How many here would have known that?" said Oprah pointing at the audeince. None of the audience raised their hands. She then thanked everyone for keeping up the election protests, saying it was so close but because "of ya`ll" this mans Presidency is in a lock box ya`ll!" The crowd stomped it`s feet cheering wildly.
