Who thinks Gore looks like a fat Jack Nicholson?
2004-09-13

Al Gore's stiff jokes are gone now, replaced by recount jokes. The cautious campaigner of 2000 is gone, too, replaced by a fire-breathing Bush basher.
the only fire he looks like he is breathing is fueled by JD or speed.
When Gore delivered his latest-in-a-series slam at the Republicans last week, faulting Vice President Dick Cheney for "sleazy and despicable" criticism of the Democrats, a White House spokesman dismissively responded: "Consider the source."
Uh, AL? You might not want to mention the latest Demo-lition debacle, "forgery-gate" starring LLL Dan Blather.
Well, Gore used to be the vice president. And, as he likes to say, he used to be the next president of the United States.
And, since there is a God...Al Gore is only a fat raving lunatic private citizen.
Now, he is Al Gore, private citizen — unleashed.
I'd say the only thing that's unleashed about Gore is his appetite. Damn, boy! Put down that hambone!
Speaking with a freedom and passion less frequently seen in his own political campaigns, Gore is happily making speeches, raking in money
ahh, the operative word. BLING. BLING

#14  Several centuries ago, le duc de la Rochefoucauld put together his "Maximes". One of the best refers to passion, and it more or less goes like this: "Passion makes a smart man dumb and a dumb one smart."

That's why my antenna always starts beeping when I hear the word from a pol, activist, even coach. Say enthusiasm or dedication, please.

#12  Ohh, he does not look good at all. Seriously, he seems to have been going downhill ever since Garrison Keillor began ragging on him on "Prairie Home Companion", after the 2000 election.

#11  ...Gore has skewered President Bush’s team for moral cowardice, the "lowest sort of politics imaginable," aligning itself with "digital brownshirts" who intimidate the press...

I saw a term on another blog that I liked better than 'digital brownshirts': electronic sand fleas

#10  Uh, Al...

Is it even possible to insult the Dems anymore? Talk about sleazy, lying scumbags - take a look at your own party, pal.

#8  He kinda does look like Jack in that picture BigEd linked to. Reminds me of the scene in "Witches of Eastwick" when he starts ranting about women from the church pulpit.

I'm looking for the picnic basket full of fried chicken! {In 2004, its "free-range", of course, if a lefty eats it}

Pix from Drudge
He looks as though he is not playing with a full deck.
Spooky. To think this man was 500+ votes away from the presidency?
That's enough to make one sick to the stomach!
