Did you notice? From the style, you can tell that most of the five star reviews were written by the same person.

Al Gore wrote a book??
Or did he "claim" to have written a book?

while people are over at Amazon, type in Slander and enter in another recommendation to knock out the "blinded by the right" that the lefties posted there. Ann's book is doing pretty well by the way.

Seems it even tends to destroy book sales within a row or two proximity of it and publishers are pressing the bookstores not to put Gore's book near their books and getting really mad when they don't and then Gore's book drags theirs' down.

That made my day.

Sheeeess, I just read some of the reviews. I swear, if they are not Freepers, they should be!

I freeped it. Mine was the one about Al growing up in a luxury hotel and sending his kids to St. Albans, yet claiming he knows about family struggles. This was in response to a Goron who said that Al and Tipper were more like ordinary people than the Bushes.

I also rated all of the "freeped" reviews as useful.

Why is Al and Tipper Gore the author of the "Spirit of Family" book? From what I read on the reviews, they didn't take any of the pictures.

As one reviewer said...Life Magazine did the same type of thing years ago and it was much cheaper. Why pay 24+ bucks when you can go to the library and browse old Life Magazines.

He truly is GoreLoserman.

Guess who this moron voted for.

=====
Intelligent life exists, November 20, 2002
Reviewer: A reader from Atlanta, GA United States

I read the first review by some right winger who can't get over the fact that Gore actually did win the presidency but it was stolen by a dishonest, valueless, baffoon - Boy George.

However, that being said, I bought this book and - well, in a word, it is suberb. Gore is -unlike our baffoon dictator g.w.bush - intelligent, thoughtful and HONEST. Unlike bush- the cocaine snorting, heavy drinking, DUI convicted, and wife cheater (THESE ARE FACTS) Al Gore is truly forthright and honest AND EDUCATED and informed. This is a great book.
=========

I didn't know Bush wrote a book. This review wasn't about Gore's book. LOL!!! Hey "reader from Atlanta", Cynthia lost too!

I found this review interesting. Once again, the Clintons stab this poor jackash in the back:

"Do you really need this book?, November 23, 2002

A total waste of time...I am glad I got it from the library and did not also waste my money "

Does everyone remember that poor lady that lived in a rental property on th Gores' family estate, and how badly maintained her home was by the Gores? It was slum landlord property. Or how about the year he donated zero to charity? I wonder if these family stories are in his books?

You forgot the "/sarcasm". Oh, it was a real comment?

Just like liberals. Blaming the mean spirited book seller/business man for the faults of their books. Like their ideas and messages in general.

The other publishers should be ragging on the Gores' publisher for screwing up the business by putting the bad apple in to
the barrel. Not the guy with the barrel.

I managed to avoid most of the blitzkrieg. The media outlets that allowed Gore to spew forth alienated me long ago.
