Al Gore and John McCain seem to agree. Maybe they should run on the "Insane Green" ticket

[facedown]

Lenin’s ghost is smiling.

Not at all surprising to find that Algore Jr. is as much a fascist apparatchik as his old man, Algore Sr.

[The Pack Knight]

Well-put by Mr. Tracinski. I'd be shocked by the lengths the leftist Revolutionary Elite wants to go to control political thought.

However, I was a Political Science major, and this stuff is old hat to anyone who's spoken to a liberal arts professor.

[justt bloomin]

Blah, blah, blah. When are people going to stop taking him seriously?

[Yankee]

Lenin’s ghost is smiling.

So is Stalin's.

I used to think Gore was just an asshole.

Now I know he's a very dangerous asshole.

All this whining because one network refuses to fall in line with the rest of the media.

[Don Corleone]

Blah, blah, blah. When are people going to stop taking him seriously?

On the contrary...we had better take these people seriously for that is what they want to do to this country and will keep up and intensify their efforts as long as they can get away with it. They are traitors...and want to be tyrants!

[Huskrrrr]

Sour grapes because Air America tanked! Al you can’t win in the arena of public debate.

[skimask]

[Popman]

This "manipulation" is rendering our representative government "illegitimate" because it only has the public's "consent"--he repeatedly puts "consent" in scare quotes, just to emphasize the point that this consent is not, in Al Gore's superior judgment, genuine or legitimate. As he puts it, "the 'consent of the governed' [has become] a commodity to be purchased by the highest bidder."

The voting public always has been manipulated to a certain degree. Candidates pay good money to shape their image in the public eye

That's the price a free and open society pays during an election cycle.

The American public "bought" a Clinton administration twice in spite of Gore as his wooden side kick.

Gore seems to forget that.

So the American public isn't manipulated if they vote for a democrat and are being bought when they vote for a repubican?

Makes perfect sense to me

I think Gore is borderline psychotic. Anyone who would suggest that the Democrats don’t have legions of friends in the national media, don’t use carefully-crafted media campaigns to win elections, and that somehow Fox news and Rush Limbaugh are controlling the national debate, has lost touch with reality.

[Popman]

I used to think Gore was just an asshole.

Now I know he's a very dangerous asshole.

I might add, a very rich dangerous asshole

His post presidential run has been very good to him, he has plenty of dough, thanks to google, to throw around if he wanted to

Nothing more dangerous than a moonbat enviro wacko with money to burn to push an agenda

Great article and from Yahoo!

Take the time to visit Yahoo and vote this one up. They need all the encouragement they can get to run conservative articles.

[Republicus2001]

Al Gore’s Assault on Reason. Why would he do such a thing? Why the violence?

[JasonC]

Wealth is poverty
Production is destruction
Silence is reason

Excuse my ignorance, but how does one recommend an article?

I looked and didn't see how to do it?

[2ndDivisionVet]

Click on the 5 stars on the bottom. Be sure to click on the 5th one if you wish to give it “5 stars”, etc...

[Popman]

Wow, it was embarrassing easy.

Thanks

[Doomonyou]

The algore must be channeling jimmah carter.
