#2 I knew he was nutz when he refused to concede the election to Bush in 2000.
Hope everyone who voted for him and was so patient for him to recount 3 Florida counties for 35 days while he held the nation (and the world) hostage is happy.
And as Podhoretz said in his column today, yesterday put the lie to those who said, "Oh, Gore would have done the same as Bush if he were president after 9/11."
For my own part, I'm still thanking God that Gore was never our Commander-in-Chief and that GWB is!

#3 Can you believe that this idiot came within a whisker of being President of the U.S.?

#4 he's a certifiable lunatic...Gaawwwdddd I hope he speaks at their convention! Between Gore one night, Howard (Yeeaaagghhh) Dean another night, and Al Sharpton another night, the entertainment and ridicule possibilities are endless. I'm proposing a drinking game for Gore's night: every time a vein throbs on his forehead, you've gotta take a shot....

#6 I can't believe Al "Al" Gore is playing on our fears like this.

#7 I concur with Podhoretz: Al Gore is insane. And I'm not saying that for rhetoric, as an insult; I mean it literally: the dude has gone off the deep end, unhinged perhaps by his loss in 2000 (although I suspected even then, as a Democrat, that the guy was a couple pom-poms short of a full pep squad).

I used to think he was just a manipulative demagogue; but now I know he's nuts.

Anybody remember that movie from the early 80's, Scanners? I can picture Algore getting so worked up his head explodes just like in the movie.

#8 Want to scare the Arabs sh!tless? Nominate, for Pres and VP, Dean and Gore while doing their best Hulk impressions.

#9 Didn't you say you entered politics in order to please your old man, al-Algore?

I'm sure daddy is really proud right about now.

#11 Miss Jen-
I've been saying this since 9/11, but I will go to my grave believing that if AlGore had been President that day, he would have opened the nuclear football. He would have been under unbelievable pressure to 'prove' that he wasn't another Bill Clinton and do something forceful. Trouble is, it wouldn't have necessarily have been the right target at the right time...and if you think things are tough now, imagine what they would have been like after that.

Mike

#12 How do you post images? I had a good one of all gore and wanted to post it yesterday. BTW Ed, great pics!

#13 Mike, maybe...or he would have cried like a child and totally caved.
When people ask me what I think Gore would have done on 9/11 (long before yesterday), I tell them that all of us girls we'd be wearing burqas and we'd all be bowing down to Mecca 5 times a day.
Gore would have made us become the Islamic States of America.
Praise Jesus we'll never find out for sure!
Now let's make sure Kerry's defeated, too (because he and Al are ideological twins).

#15 Somebody had almost the same idea as me.

I think Al Gore is such a ripe target, that he has multitudes thinking along the same lines.

#18 AzCat, did you get that padded leather outfit where I think you got it from? *rolls eyes*

But here's my take, from the title.

#19 Imagine George Bush I going off on Clinton like that in '96. Or Bob Dole in 2000. You can't, can you? Maybe it's because they have a thing called class. All through their careers, not just in their old age. Bob Dole was great last night on Dennis Miller. Talk about a true American. His wit and wisdom were reminiscent of the Gipper's.

#21 Why won't Kerry/Gore/Dean win? Because we know they will apologize for America and be the lackey for the UN; the majority of voting Americans will have more self-esteem than that. We will never trust our families and our country to the world's catatonic stupor in the face of danger. We will not smile while the international community dismisses our country as "cowboy-led" (which they interpret as an insult). Why would we continue to engage with a world that demands monetary, humanitarian, and military assistance, and then tirades against the US? The world is starting to resemble every family's freeloader, who comes to live with them, and no matter what is given, you are resented for the giving, and the giving is never enough. Why would we seek out international approval when there are fresh graves in the Darfur, filled with fresh corpses demanding justice, which the Politically Crippled (PC) crowd at the UN just can't make out.

In the Democrat's world, it doesn't really matter if we behave humanely--it just wants to be SEEN as behaving humanely. That is the world of Kerry/Gore/Dean.

I can neither confirm nor deny that the source of that portion of the image is what you suspect. :)

#23 "Imagine George Bush I going off on Clinton like that in '96. Or Bob Dole in 2000. You can't, can you?" (BigMutha, #19)

Got that right! GW, Condi Rice, Rumsey or Powell wouldn't either. In fact, I can't think of a single, intelligent, moral, psychologically healthy, political rep that would. Gore's "style" of delivery reminds me of the Islamoturd mullahs. What does that mean?

About Gore: Talk about a mid-life crisis! He is just like communist pro-abort Molly Yard. She does exactly the same thing in exactly the same way--Scream, bitch, rinse, repeat.

#24 The way I figure it:

1) 9/11 happens.

2) President Gore mentally throws a rod and rides the short-bus to the Laughing Academy.

3) The 25th Amendment kicks in.

4) President Lieberman is sworn in.

5) The (already softened) skulls of the folks eternally blaming the Joooos for everything implode.

See, the system does work.

#25 DV - And, there is a plauseable arguement that Lieberman would have fought the "War on Terror" in a similar manner to GWB.

#26 Ed - Yeah, I figured the same thing. I voted for Joe for Senate back when I lived in CT - the alternative was more Lowell ~~Wanker~~ Wiecker. He seemed fairly principled back then, but his 180 on issues when Gore gave him the nod in 2000 were a disappointment.

He's the only Democrat who ran who I could even consider voting for, and I'd have still gone with Bush in the end.
