And explains why he/sh/it is so bent.

Regardez, the House unanimously voted against knucklehead AlGore the Junior:

Tweaking the veep

Nine days after Al Gore stumbled over the question of whether pregnant women on death row should be executed, the Republican-controlled House tweaked the vice president by pushing an "innocent child protection" bill to prohibit states from putting to death mothers-to-be, the Associated Press reports.

"This bill is to ensure that a convicted killer doesn't kill again, namely the unborn child in her womb," said Rep. Joseph R. Pitts, Pennsylvania Republican.

However, the bill — introduced two days after the vice president's hesitation — clearly had a presidential campaign slant as representatives criticized him personally: Gore's position is "breathtakingly insensitive," said Rep. Christopher H. Smith, New Jersey Republican.

The bill passed unanimously yesterday.

The GOP jumped on the issue July 16 when the likely Democratic presidential nominee awkwardly declined to say on NBC's "Meet the Press" whether he supported a federal law that would bar the execution of pregnant women.

Likely Republican presidential nominee George W. Bush — who has presided over more than 130 executions as Texas governor —immediately said the choice to exempt pregnant women from executions was easy for him to make.

The next day, Mr. Gore said he does support the law, and he noted that such a woman also would have the right to choose whether to have an abortion. "I support the statute to spare that hypothetical person," Mr. Gore said. "It should be her right to choose."

- can anyone make sense of that? No wonder the reporters shook their heads at AlGore the Junior's knuckleheadedness. And no wonder AlGore the Junior scrammed as they bore in.
