"Gore linked to donation for Clinton veto
By Jerry Seper and Bill Sammon
THE WASHINGTON TIMES

Vice President Al Gore and the head of the Democratic National Committee sought a $100,000 donation from a wealthy Texas lawyer in 1995 after promising that President Clinton would veto a bill limiting damage awards in product-liability cases. ..."

"...The Fowler call sheet, also prepared by the DNC, said: "Sorry you missed the Vice President. I know [you] will give $100k when the President vetoes tort reform, but we really need it now. Please send ASAP if possible." That notation was listed under the heading, "Reason for Call."..."

What kind of a third rate country is it when the ruling party can only get $100K for a Presidential veto?
