Do you want a real leader? Gore's two stories about Texas. Today Texas is terrible. Yet his OFFICIAL evaluation and position before his campaign was as follows:
Why does Al Gore say one thing, when the truth is another?

Take for instance Gore's attacks on the Texas record. Looks like he had a
different opinion in a White House press release. Look what Calvin Woodward
of the Associated Press had to say about Gore's stand on the Texas record:

"After all the bad things Al Gore has been saying about the state of George
W. Bush's Texas, it seems conditions there are on the mend after all.

Says who? The Clinton-Gore administration.

The White House has a Web section listing "Clinton-Gore administration
accomplishments" state by state. Some of the headlines for Texas sound like
a campaign ad that could be run by Gov. Bush, the Republican presidential
candidate, and not at all like the Texas that Gore is describing in his
Democratic campaign.

The White House says of the state:

-"More high-quality teachers with smaller classes for Texas' schools."
-"Crime falls 15 percent in Texas."
-"496,746 fewer people on welfare."
-"Health care for nearly 50,900 uninsured Texas children."
-"More toddlers are being immunized."
-"Child support collections up 178 percent."
-"2,005,800 new jobs."
-"Homeownership has increased in Texas."
-"11 toxic waste sites cleaned up."

-Calvin Woodward, Associated Press

This is the true, documented record of Bush in governing. Vote for a real man. Vote for Bush.

GZ,
Sorry to butt in as it is not much of my business but I remember you saying a while back that you'd like Gore to be President because you didn't like Bush.

Your political allegiances seem to change as fast as your market views. hahaha <G>
