Washington, DC—RNC Communications Director Jim Dyke issued the following statement today in response to a speech by former Vice President Al Gore attacking President Bush.

“Al Gore served as Vice President of this country for eight years. During that time, Osama Bin Laden declared war on the United States five times and terrorists killed US citizens on at least four different occasions including the first bombing of the World Trade Center, the attacks on Khobar Towers, our embassies in East Africa, and the USS Cole.”

“Al Gore’s attacks on the President today demonstrate that he either does not understand the threat of global terror, or he has amnesia.”

I think he has a much more severe mental condition than just amnesia.

That's close to my thoughts, but I would add another possibility, "or Mr. Gore has simply gone over the edge."

Seriously, Mr. Gore is a border-line psychotic. This hysteria is not a healthy sign.

Algore's next public appearance will be at the grand opening of the new enviro wacko movie "The Day After Tomorrow" which the enviro wacko gang will blame everything on Bush and say this is what the world is coming to if Bush is reelected in November. The left's new propaganda movie put out by Bush hating liberals in Hollyweird.

Al Gore has amnesia and is nothing more then a shill for the Democratic party. He is a prime example of a man who has no common sense. His former boss, the infamouse Willy Clinton, left him out in the cold last election. The picture sums up my feelings for this fool! Finished! Kaput! Toot-Toot! - Al Gore's claim to fame in a nutshell....

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. 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.

There are so many places to start with Al Gore, one hardly knows where to start. The facet of his absurdity that always galls me is the fact that as VP - he certified the results of the 2000 election as reported to the Congress. All of of the chowder heads who want to maintain that it was an unconstitutional election have to get past the fact that Gore played an important roll in certifying the results and served as a Constitutional Officer of the U.S. in the aftermath of the 2000 election. Did he violate his oath to support the Constitution? Nah, he just acknowledged the obvious and accepted the fact, at that moment, that he lost. Of course that doesn't stop him from raising the issue ad nauseum now, or sitting by while nut case leftists spin that election for the 43,983,432nd time.

Nah, I think we should let ol' Al rant a while longer, at least until after the election. He really epitomizes the crazy left and irrational hatred toward Bush. I think it's great.

LOL! After Bush won the 2000 election, Gore bought himself a house in Tennessee that looks just like the White House.

After Bush wins the 2004 election, Kerry will have his "presidential" airplane to play make believe with.

Seriously, Mr. Gore is a border-line psychotic. This hysteria is not a healthy sign.

Algore is self-serving, greedy, and available to the highest bidder. He knows his political days are over. Soros has bought this guy.

Al Sr., the less than distinguished former Senator from Tennessee, was known in his time as being able to be bought for a price. Armand Hammer frequently said Al Sr. was "the best Senator money could buy"

The acorn doesn't fall far from the tree.

"The Real Deal"

The fact that Kerry feels a need to advertise this is telling.

Remember all the loser punks in High School who bragged about how many babes they were bedding? Talk is cheap. Real men let the women speak for them instead.

Same with Kerry here. If he was the "Real Deal", he wouldn't need to say it. It would be demonstrable.

Exactly. There is nothing that or ever has been the "Real Deal" with John Kerry. He doesn't even have a real job. It's pathetic to think that both of his wives had to pay his way in life. He should have GIGOLO printed on the plane.

The "Real Deal" my foot, the "Real Heel" is more like it. He has built a career on a manufactured version of his military service. That facade has sheilded him for over 30 years and now he is terrified of being exposed for the shabby, duplicitous, low-life gigolo he is.

A Real Heal is also so accurate. I'm a Vietnam vet-and remembering back 33 years ago, my fellow vets could not conceivably accept a Purple Heart unless they 1. sustained it in combat and 2. received a wound worth of a medal. But...there are a FEW that would.
