The coke head comment is complete rumor and innuendo. Not one shred of evidence exists to substantiate it. On the other hand, some evidence exists that Gore was a dope smoker who received nearly straight F's because he couldn't put the bowl down and hit the books. And Gore is against decriminalizing pot smoking. However, these issues pale in comparison to an important one like education, where Gore is a complete hypocrite.

If you don't like Gore, then tell me why without denigrating Bush.

No evidence of your coke head allegation has been uncovered even after a couple of years of frantic digging and God knows how much money in P.I. billings to the DNC.

However, let's pretend 30 years ago Mr. Bush was an out-of-control drug user. How many drug users have you come across in your practice that have stopped cold turkey, been clean for 30 years and lived productive and exemplary lives from that point on? Pretty impressive huh?

I see you're incapable of posting something negative beyond "I don't like Gore either" about Gore.

If I were truly unbiased (which I don't pretend to be) and disliked both candidates. I would have no difficulty whatsoever expressing my reasons why. Therefore, I conclude you're either as delusional as your candidate Al Gore, or being disingenous.

Al Gore is either a huge liar. Or delusionally unstable and can't discern reality from fantasy. You may believe these traits are what's necessary for our President, but I certainly don't. If all you have are a few one line foobars from Bush, then the comparison is not even close. I would much prefer a President who is honest and can discern reality from fantasy, then a delusional liar who needs therapy.
