Gee, I can think of all SORTS of things that false passport would have been good for when it comes to furthering the illegal activities of the Clinton-Gore Administration ... can't you?

Indeed I can think of TONS of things. I wonder what name was on that false passport, and where that name shows up...Switzerland, various Midle East countries, Venezuela.....

Would this be Korena Gore Schiff?

Schiff of the Bolshevik Russian Revolution Fame.

Doing too little or not doing enough??? What kind of writing is this?

Not sure he could claim "no controlling passport authority" on this one...

Velly intelesting, but shtupid!

I can think of a few things. However, if it was indeed to just protect his daughter, I can't argue with it at all. I don't have kids myself, but I know if I did, I would use all the power in the world to keep them safe. And let's face it, should would be and still probably is a good target for the nuts out there.

Yeah, Clinton's Code of Ethics really benefited Al "Whore for his Party" Gore.

Would you have thunk this?

[Wild Irish Rogue]

This story has the potential to be explosive,if true ( which I don't doubt-I bet we'll never know a fraction of the illegal activities that occurred during the clinton/Gore administration!) The media is still too busy trying to hunt down stories about a then 20 yr old, buying a margarita,than to bother with requests for falsified papers for family members of a sitting vice president.

As much as I detest the Goron and take every opportunity to take a well deserved whack at this whacko, I can't fault him for doing this.

I would suggest that we just let this be one of the many of his foibles and let it pass.

If I had a college age son or daughter who could have been a target of kidnapping or terrorism, I would have done whatever to protect her or him while they were overseas. I think that most parents feel that way, and this is one of those areas we lose when we pursue it.

Just note it and list and move on. The Goron is rapidly becoming a fading dot in the history of life.

This is actually a good idea. Bush should've tried it. "Alright, girls, you can have fake IDs, but only if you graduate from the Farm!"

"But Daaaaaad!"

"No buts! If you insist on drinking underage, you'll learn to do it covertly!"

[DakotaGator]

I can't believe some of the comments I'm seeing on this thread! They go something like this; "If it was done to protect his daughter, that's alright."

Utter bullsh*t! This is a clear abuse of authority. If she needed protection, where was the legitimate Secret Service detail? Additionally, if she needed training for her personal safety, Gore is a wealthy man. There is no end of very professional private concerns that could train her for a fee.

People, get a grip on reality. Once again Gore was diverting vital U.S. assets for his personal use.

Al Gore knows first hand about "special protection" overseas, given his REMF assignments and corresponding protection while
"reporting" in 'Nam.
