CIA official: Gore compromised by secret past Says Russia has dossiers on VP's former drug use, Hammer connection According to a former high-ranking official in the CIA, Russian intelligence agencies possess thick dossiers concerning Al Gore's heavy usage of drugs three decades ago as well as his father's questionable dealings with Armand Hammer, a dedicated Soviet operative for 70 years. The CIA source, speaking to WorldNetDaily on condition of anonymity, has since the 1970s routinely advised American presidents, including President Clinton, on Russian intelligence. There is credible evidence, says the source, that these dossiers have already been employed to alter Gore's behavior on issues affecting Russia. As an example, he cited Gore's acquiescence to the corruption of former Russian Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdin, who co-chaired a commission with Gore to encourage Americans to do business in Russia. Chernomyrdin accumulated from $1 billion to $5 billion in personal assets from the systematic looting of the Soviet state treasury during the time he co-chaired the commission with Gore. Republican presidential candidate Gov. George W. Bush brought this exact point up during last week's second debate with Gore. "We went into Russia," said Bush. "We said, 'Here's some IMF money,' and it ended up in Viktor Chernomyrdin's pocket and others. And yet we played like there was reform." As WND has reported previously, American businessmen, who were threatened with death by the Russian mafia and/or had their assets expropriated by these gangsters, say their complaints were brushed aside by Gore and his aides while the vice president chaired the committee meant to help them.................... worldnetdaily.com

<<Whereas Gore may embellish certain things, they have been insignifcant, poetic elaborations to illustrate certain points, such as the union song or the price of medicine for people vs. pets for example>>>>>>> Would you also include his "elaboration" of not knowing of the fund raising going on at the Buddhist temple meeting as insignificant? Iced Tea Al is a wonderful story teller. He has you as a believer. The "No controlling legal authority" also makes for a lot of integrity. Good luck with your man.

Gore is a homophobe. Check it out. GORE OPS TARGET NADER’S SEX LIFE; MOVE CALLED 'DESPERATE' Exclusive Campaign 2000 took an aggressive turn this week after Gore campaign operatives began questioning Green Party presidential candidate Ralph Nader’s sex life, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. "Look, he’s never been married," one Gore operative whispered to stunned reporters earlier this week. "Who is going to be sleeping in his bed at the White House if he’s elected president? I‘m interested. Aren‘t you?" The whispering campaign comes as Nader, 66, appears to be taking support away from Democratic hopeful Al Gore in key states. "This is the last act of a desperate campaign!" a Nader insider said late Wednesday. "If this does not open the eyes of the American people, nothing will. These people will do anything to keep power." A senior Gore official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, blasted the whispering campaign. "If anyone is caught doing this, they will be fired immediately!" the official told the DRUDGE REPORT from Tennessee. "Who’s ever doing this should knock it off -- and knock it off now!" The SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE advanced questions about Nader’s private life after California state Assemblywoman Carole Migden raised the issue in an interview. "Of course, I don't necessarily have that information, and I certainly don't want to say anything libelous or unreasonable," Migden said in an interview with CALIFORNIA TRIANGLE magazine. "All I'm saying is that we believe he has strong ties to the community -- and has for years -- and hasn't been forthright about it." Nader told the CHRONICLE that he was appalled that an elected official like Migden would even bring up the subject. "I've spoken out on gay and lesbian issues way in advance of Al Gore," he said, adding that -- unlike his Democratic opponent -- he supports both civil marriages and eliminating the "don't ask, don't tell" policy for gays in the military. "But the answer to her inference is no."
