Why I Didn't Vote For Gore
My Left brain ^ | June 28, 2002 | The Debster

Posted on 06/28/2002 1:43:14 AM PDT by Deb

I decided to support the Republican party after years of Democratic faithfullness (this isn't true, but they always start with a lie, so what the heck). It was a hard decision I came to after a long internal struggle (nope).

The Democrats had always been the party of the people, the under-dog, the voiceless (the armed robber), but there was something about Albert Gore that caused me to itch and scratch and occasionally lose my lunch.

What was it?

Was it the lengthy pole up his butt? The inability to tell truth even when knowing how easily he could be found out and exposed? Or was it that creepy kiss (P-tewy)?

Hard to tell. But one thing was for sure...the man used as the model for the preppy, snob with the pole up his butt in "Love Story" MUST BE STOPPED!! He must not be President of my precious United States or Naomi Wolf would be dressing the entire country and we'll NEVER HAVE ENOUGH CORDUROY!!

Oh, sure it bothered me that his father was bought and paid for by Russian agent Armand Hammer, that his "tour in Vietnam" included a babysitter, and that his entire political career had been one show-boating, camera-fest after another, but there was something else.

In truth, I respected the man who invented the internet and brought attention to the abomination that was Love Canal, I can't deny that, and the fact that he lied repeatedly about his father's disgusting vote against the Voting Rights Act was never a huge problem for me because I understand that as a Democrat it's necessary to lie or folks won't like you.

No, the thing that killed my passion for Al wasn't that, while claiming to love the earth, he had a dam opened, wasting millions of gallons of water so he could float down stream in a canoe dressed in brand new LL Bean, while he pretended to paddle...although that was a good one...I think the end came much later, close to the end of the campaign when he strangled that litter of fluffy white puppies with his bare hands.

Call me a sentimental softy, but puppy murder is where I draw the line. Even now, everytime I see a tiny, fluffy, stiff body at the foot of a Democrat, I re-steel myself and say, "No, dammit, I'll never voter for that".

And that's why I didn't vote for Gore.

Yesterday edmund929 posted an "article" by Steve Kirsch, or something like that, entitled: "Why I Didn't Vote For Bush".

You can probably guess the reasons.

The son has completed his first year at (big surprise) Harvard, which finally has proven beyond a doubt that it will accept just about anyone if he has the proper - in Harvard's view - pedigree.

I thought the sweat stains on his sky blue shirts ought to have disqualified him from the WH, but if you want to argue over puppies, well, have at it! lol

Ugh, I hope no one posts that photo of him dancing at his "I lost the election party," where he's sucking down Heinekens and showing off massive pit stains.

For a laugh, check out all the cool stuff you can order from the "Al Gore is our President" site. Pathetic.

He lost the debates when he attempted to fain false exasperation when listening to Bush speak the truth. It was a display of intolerance and arogance that I didn't want representing our people.

Also, the DNC STILL owes the country an apology for defending the indefensable during his boys impeachment.

We ran him through the ringer.

He left for the night-had to go to sleep. This has been a VERY long nap.

Aside from the "(D)" political affiliation, I must say that the "No controlling Legal Authority" thing did it for me.

Albert learned that there is a controlling legal authority-the voters.

I simply didn't vote for him because he's a suckhead liberal.

He didn't learn the lesson yet. He wants to try again. A pox on him.

What could be better?

I have total confidence in algor to botch this completely up.. Especially running from the outside this time.

Do you remember the way he chased Dubya around the floor and lunged at him in an attempt to "intimidate" LOL!

Remember when he made himself up like Ronald Reagan? Or like Deb says hired Naomi Wolf to figure our exactly why he sucked and how bad? AT A SALARY MORE THAN HE MADE!

ROFL!!

Bring back algor! No, no.. we don't want him as President, we wish to be entertained!

It looked like he was trying to "cruise" him.
