Al's pimpin' the books on Jay's show and still mad at the Supreme Court.

[Dems_R_Losers]

What freaking idiots these Democrats are. Giving away so much free advertising for Rupert Murdoch and Rush Limbaugh! I'd bet Fox News has picked up a half-million new viewers in the last week and Limbaugh that many listeners. Thes guys are doing our work FOR us!

I'd love it if Faith Hill called him on some of his lies during commercials.

Can't believe I'm going to watch after reading all these commenbts. It doesn't come on for another hour on my satellite feed.

... while my husband and I are making triple figures as computer geeks/nerds :-)

Hundreds and hundreds of dollars? I thought the nerd industries paid more than that. Lots more. :-)

is there any sane American who would rather have Gore sitting in the Oval Office right now?

Al Gore sitting in the Oval Office would initiate spontaneous combustion, resulting in burning down the White House.

[Cobra64]

He was a traitorist Bastard under Clinton, and he is a Traitorist Bastard now.

And he's still a flippin naive, dopey, out -of-touch, dip-shit. It must have been dropping heavy tabs of LSD and a .223 round he took through his brain in Nam that made him into what he is; a cigar-store indian.

Even the Rats are glad Gore wasn't in office when 911 hit.

[Cobra64]

He literally cannot speak for more than 5 minutes without telling a MONSTROUS lie, not a little white one.

He had good training from his boss; El Stainman. Gore is probably adept at cleaning sinks. Gore just loves the Bounty Towels and green Comet sink cleanser.

What did gore do on Fox?

[bybybill]

Please, please call NBC and demand Big Al is a weekly guest on Leno and on MTP with Russert. America needs to hear ALBORE as much as possible. Maybe Tiny Tom could fill in for him when Al has to hoe tobacoo or invent something. WHAT A CLOWN

[GretchenEE]

Do you know which Costco store did gore and the tipper attack with their presence?

I hope it wasn't the one where I normally shop.

[Terridan]

"Gore is a dillatante and a limosine liberal."
AAAAHAAAHAAAAHAAAAA!!!!
Oh the complete irony and hypocracy of it all!!!
Limosine liberal! The biggest gas hogs of them all, and he's never seen without one!!!

[Terridan]

Ditto with the Santa Rosa, CA Costco! He wasn't there but... HIS UNSOLD BOOKS WERE!!!!!!! ;)
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! ;)

[Terridan]

"Can you tell me if Gore used the word "leitmotif" at any point tonight? I have a bet going as to what word he'll reach for after he realizes people are laughing about "zeitgeist"."

O.K. could you help me out??? What in the sam hell is leitmotif or zeitgeist mean to Gore the bore??? I've obviously missed these two new gems!!!

Zeitgeist is used by some to mean "Sprit of the time." It comes from the German words Zeit = time and Geist = ghost.

People who are as shallow as Gore used 50 cent words to try to make themselves look like deep thinkers.

I saw Julia Roberts on Larry King once, and her word was genre. Genre this, and genre that. Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre GenreG enre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre Genre.

Can you tell me if Gore used the word "leitmotif" at any point tonight? I have a bet going as to what word he'll reach for after he realizes people are laughing about "zeitgeist".

No, but he told his one and only joke (which he slips in at *every* interview), the one about being late because he no longer gets motorcades (or "they no longer stop traffic for me")...

He also drove another old standby into the ground when he slipped in, rather clumsily, a comment about "putting the turkey in the lockbox" for Thanksgiving.

[rockfish59]

Uhhhh, no Jay, no, no, no, no!!! Ahilk.....Yup!

[patriciaruth]

After Leno spread his arms wide and said Hollywood was liberal, implying they have a lot of sway over what gets out to the audiences, he brought his hands in over to his right side and indicated a small section with his palms facing each other and what he said indicated he meant: liberals have big sway in most of the spectrum and the conservatives just have this little area where they can talk to each other.

Leno went on to say they were just talking to each other, and Leno was basically asking, 'Why are you, Al Gore, begrudging them this little slice of the media pie?' He was not expressing himself well, but that's what Leno meant.

[patriciaruth]

A few more appearances on Leno's show by Al Bore like the one he gave tonight, and he won't be able to be elected dog catcher

Anybody else notice how Leno always seems to lead Al Gore into quicksand?

I think he secretly doesn't like Gore, and wants to expose him. Last time before the election, he showed Gore the picture of Clinton on the magazine cover in the "s*** my ****" posture, and Gore was furious with him for bringing up the reference to the sexual scandals of Clinton. It made a pall on the whole appearance.

This time Leno led Gore to admit he doesn't like the First Amendment and is against war with Iraq. The audience was dead silent, shocked I think, while Gore was telling them he'd give Saddam a pass and that we were losing the war on terror.

The only sound I thought I heard was of Democrat fat cats closing their checkbooks.

When I watched Gore on Letterman, he was fabulous-- relaxed, ironic, funny, and I thought his handlers had finally got the right script and made sure it was well rehearsed. BUT I realize now that was because Letterman played along with the little play, while as liberal as we think Leno is, he obviously doesn't like hypocrites and anti-Americans.

[Terridan]

Thank you! ;)

[KSCITYBOY]

I watched a snippet of Gore on Leno and Al looked fatter, sweatier, and less comfortable than usual. Al is awkward at best and strange on average. The kind of guy you might know or work with but there is just something about him that makes you steer clear. Like somebody with really bad breath that always gets in your face to talk.
