I used to think Friedman was smart.... Gore displayed dignity and grace? Yes, maybe if he had conceded the election on election night and not put the country through an unprecedented four-week sturm-and-drang featuring the most ludicrous legal arguments. And even if he won the popular vote - YOU STILL HAVE TO WIN THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE! Friedman you jagoff!
I believe Al Gore is insane and his insane rantings should be relegated to the trash bin.
I don't have to get snippy about it, but he did, in fact, concede the election on election night. It was a brief moment when he actually did exhibit the dignity and grace Friedman gives him credit for.
Of course, he then called Bush back and "unconceded," reverting to the self-centered, tantrum-throwing, jackass form Al Gore has trademarked.
Many on the left are insane.
As the author of this column has so clearly demonstrated.
