AS: Thanks for the recommendation. I would like to read the article; I know you think I am an unreasonable Bush defender, but honestly that role has come only in response to a lot of unbalanced reports on our state and the man. I'm not excited about either candidate; I'm just LESS excited about Gore. I tried to find the article on line, and failed, but I did come across something I think important to mention in light of your advocating this article as such an important and reliable information piece in "really" knowing the truth about GW. THE AUGUST ISSUE of Vanity Fair published an article purporting to show that death row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal had "confessed" his guilt in the early 1990s in a conversation with a Pennsylvania Prison Society volunteer, one Philip Bloch. At an August 3 press conference held at the studios of WHAT, a Black radio station in Philadelphia, Mumia’s attorneys presented evidence exposing the Vanity Fair report as a fraud. As with any source of info-- ALL is suspect. You also represented Molly Ivins' SHRUB as non-political and unbiased, which anyone knowing Ivins knows is NEVER the case. I guess I just think all of us should read everything with a bit of caution. Caveat lector. (Let the reader beware)

<<True personal history not political marketing image.>> You would have everyone believe there has been no marketing in the repeated attempted failed "reinventing" of Al Gore - Mr. I don't lie I only got a few facts (cough cough gag gag vomit) "wrong" - himself? The only truth the voter need remember about marketing is - a liar is a liar is a liar. When Did Al Gore tell the Truth - When he said (in his book) He wants higher energy prices or when he demanded oil be released to drive down prices only so he might be elected?
