I thought you guys said he just liked to embellish. Now it's Bush's fault that Gore lies. Are you sure it's not Reagan' fault as well? The blame game. Clinton perfected it and his party is still running with it. alan w

Well gore called the rapist the best that ever was and if he believed that then how come he has not talked to the man in several months. Unfortunatly, the lies are piling up.
