Can Algore answer to why Viacommie CBS-VH1-MTV edited out the boos that Her Satanic Majesty Hillary received at the Concert For NYC? Boos that were replaced with CHEERS and the past forever changed with a video release with such deception?

When he got to the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy bankrolling all of these news sources, he revealed that he can't see the forest for the trees. "Bush Country" meant nothing to him. The Rats' strategy of going farther to the left to win them over is another tactic that will blow up in their faces.

"That’s postmodernism," he offered. "It’s the combination of narcissism and nihilism that really defines postmodernism...

>What the heck was that answer about?

Who knows? (Sounds sort of like he was talking about museum art with all the "isms".) It also reminds me of hillary on Hardball last week. She turned her hecklers' negative comments around to her own advantage.
from article...

Clinton seemed unfazed by the outbursts. "It's great to see all of this energy," she said.

It's really difficult for these leftists to admit any sort of defeat, isn't it? (...unless, of course, they can blame someone else for it.)

Postmodernism ended the day 2 planes were maliciously flown into the WTC towers. Educated types have declared this. Whiney Mr. Gore will need to find another excuse while he is still belittled by the press and public.

In the words of the Strawberry Alarm Clock:

Incense and peppermints, meaningless nouns.
Turn on, tune in, turn your eyes around.
Look at yourself, look at yourself,
Yeah, yeah.
Look at yourself, look at yourself,
Yeah, yeah,
Yeah, yeah.

...that is, day after day, injecting the daily Republican talking points into the definition of what’s objective as stated by the news media as a whole."

The "news media as a whole" certainly aren't objective. Watch the election results come in. Watch them slip up and say "that's another for us" when a Democrat takes a national victory. Also watch some footage of the 2000 election returns. See the talking heads all choked up and on the verge of tears when Algore conceded the election. Then watch their renewed energy when Algore took back that concession. Objective? Yeah, like Pravda.

As to talking points. The DNC used to post their day's talking points on their website with the tactics to pull as to how to get on talk radio. The website has been redesigned (most info appears to now come through email lists). I don't think that they have ended this practice, just moved it out of the spotlight.

there’s a bunch of them, and some of them are financed by wealthy ultra-conservative billionaires

Wealthy billionaires? As opposed to poor billionaires? And they're not just conservative, but ultra-conservative? Ooh, scary.

You know the author of this article forgot to mention it, but this was just a message Gore left on the author's answering machine while the author was away on vacation.

That's supposed to be funny, in case nobody gets it

You gotta wonder of the degree to which gore actually believes what he said above and doesn't realize that fox/wt/whoever are the small exception to a virtual lockhold of ideas in print and tv news by the democrats. Fox news for the first time has given the gop a way to get their ideas aired at all on national tv.

The only way Gore is ever going to receive a significant number of votes is via public sympathy. Look for the rats to stage an Al Gore "Small, Frail Aircraft Tour '04" sometime for next election. Then the Hildebeast can step in. Campaign finance won't permit media challanges if it's 60 days for the election.

A well-planned, orchestrated attack by the Democrats (probably hatched by the rajun cajun)

Algore has bigger problems than us. Sorry but if he's trying to look for sympathy here, he's looking in the wrong quarters. And even if we were partial towards him as one human being to another, he still has yet to show he can bond with normal people. Right now the Gorebatross' single biggest problem isn't the New Media or us, its himself and more importantly his fellow liberals are starting to catch on. In short whatever he has in the way of defining who he is, the Presidency is too important a job to be turned into his National Therapeutic Couch. Right now we should all pray a sigh of relief that man just didn't make the grade back in 2000.

Amen to what you said.

Al Gore cannot campaign on "Elect me so I can 'find myself'"

Al Gore : The "Leon Trotsky" of the DNC...

"It’s the combination of narcissism and nihilism that really defines postmodernism"

So that would make AlGore himself a "postmodernist" wouldn't it?

AlGore the Intellectual. About as beliveable as AlGore the Scientist.

Al "Space Cadet" Gore is an indispensible part of a stinking, putrid pile of Socialist idiots.

BTW, AlGore invented delusion.

Mr. Gore has been airing his views during a nationwide promotional book tour ...

... and his views are going largely unnoticed, his book ain't selling, and Algore is sinking in the polls.
