They must have learned it from Ronnie Raygun. The "I must have been napping when they talked about the Contras"- President. "Arms for Hostages? I was napping for that, too" ROFL

Gore is more concerned about what the squirrels in Yellowstone park think of the new parking lot than some poor schmuck in his rental house. For a photo-op he had the park service release water from a dam so he could be seen canoeing down a stream like he was the second coming of Thoreau. No doubt much wild life was annihilated by this sudden onslaught of water. Of course our "Gore Gals" get their pom poms dusted off and start a new chant.

Honest to Pete Michael, that's one of your less informed posts. You think that a sitting Vice President is going to be up to date on the details of the management of one of his properties? Most sitting politicians place their assets in blind trusts to avoid conflicts of interest. Much less the distraction of managing the details of any of their businesses or properties. You are a bit desperate to be villainizing Gore over this. It only exposes your dogmatic prejudice, a prejudice that I have seen you exhorting others to lay aside. I can't for a moment believe that you would find it acceptable for the man to be tending to his rental properties these last seven years and short changing his official duties as VP. Don't be so blinded by your hate for Gore. Try taking off your ideological shades. (While you are at it you might just note that he is making good on rectifying the situation forthwith.)
