To: Hawkmoon who wrote (865 ) 9/24/2000 9:57:08 PM From: Hawkmoon Respond to of 10042 Great site for Al Gore quotes:gargaro.com I especially liked this one: Let's play "Insult the Host" Gore sometimes shows publicly that he lacks Clinton's finesse. Take a reception in Los Angeles last month. It was Gore's moment to shine before donors who ponied up $2.8 million. But he wound up egg-faced when he compared electing a Republican as president to rejecting an Oscar-winning team in favor of the producers of the Hollywood clunker ''Howard the Duck.'' One of the evening's hosts, Jeffrey Katzenberg, was a driving force behind ''Howard the Duck.'' The crowd tittered. (Source: USA Today, May 8, 2000) And all you liberals have the guts to call Bush "Duh", or Shrub?? Well, check this out...: A spotted Zebra."A zebra does not change its spots." - Al Gore, attacking President George Bush in 1992. (Sources: The Toronto Sun, 11/19/95; May 13th page of the "365 stupidest things ever said, 1999 Calendar." ALL quotes from this calendar are from a book called "The 700 Stupidest Things Ever Said") The book and calendar are by a brother and sister team called Ross and Kathryn Petras. The original book "The 776 Stupidest things ever said" was printed in March 1993, and the calendar was printed August 1998.) And then we have Gore invoking a comparison between Christ and the homeless: Mary and Joseph were homeless?? "Speaking from my own religious tradition in this Christmas season, 2,000 years ago a homeless woman gave birth to a homeless child in a manger because the inn was full." Hello! Mary and Joseph were not homeless! (Sources: Press Conference at HUD, 12/22/97; George Will column, Sunday May 17 1998) Guess he didn't know that Mary and Joseph were on their way to Bethlehem to sign for the Roman Census.... Which, btw, was also how Rome would collect its "head tax" upon its citizens... So given liberal proclivity to tax and spend, you'd think he'd know that... <VBG> Regards, Ron
