It would have made a stronger legal case he might have won.<BR/><BR/>A loss is still a loss regardless of the reason in politics.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/><BR/>PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14750035.post-1172187943984951792007-02-22T15:45:00.000-08:002007-02-22T15:45:00.000-08:00Paul,Thank you for your comment.

Gore WON the popular vote in 2000 and probably, but for the Florida farce, probably also the electoral vote.<BR/><BR/>EdEd Colettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05337856316631860342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14750035.post-1172167464244441262007-02-22T10:04:00.000-08:002007-02-22T10:04:00.000-08:00Why would Al Gore put himself through the anguish ...Why would Al Gore put himself through the anguish of another losing campaign? <B>Al Gore's destiny is not to become President; his destiny is to become the next Jimmy Carter.</B> <BR/><BR/>This Sunday's Oscar Celebration will be Al Gore's coronation as the <B>"Godfather of Enviros"</B> when he wins his Oscar for "An Inconvenient Truth". <BR/><BR/>If he is really as smart as everyone touts him to be, then he will grab this golden opportunity to integrate himself into the environmental community as fast as possible and laugh all the way to the bank for the rest of his life.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/><BR/>Paul S.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14750035.post-1172039356117853662007-02-20T22:29:00.000-08:002007-02-20T22:29:00.000-08:00This is an answer to Bob F.'s comment regarding th...This is an answer to Bob F.'s comment regarding the Al Gore piece. He posted his comment in the Feb. 13 post:<BR/><BR/>Bob,<BR/><BR/>I do read the science, and I don't know what your sources are, but well over 90 percent of earth scientists seem more than convinced about climate change or global warming. I do understand the desire to deny the horrible obvious, but as far as "flat earthers", right back atcha! Subscribing to this left wing media bias b.s. is buying into propaganda plied to the same nitwits that say the totally immoral invasion of Iraq actually had something to do with the attack on America on 9-11-01. Check out the comments of Michael Scheuer, head of the CIA's Bin Laden or Al Quaida Bureau, who says unequivocally that Iraq had nothing to do with the attack, and when the further attack on the US occurs, it will originate in Afghanistan or Pakistan (and eventually will involve a nuclear weapon). He further remarks that, if our government truly is interested in stopping further attacks (and it seems they are not), they should concentrate on those two countries, not on Iraq. As to Iraq, it feels like our powers that be believe, "It's so unlike God to plant our oil under their sand." To me, the whole mess feels like a kid who, after murdering his parents, complains about being an orphan.<BR/><BR/>My two cents.Ed Colettihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05337856316631860342noreply@blogger.com
