Get Out, Mr. Nader (Whiner alert!)

You're only fueling defeatism--and you defeated my father.

Watching Ralph Nader declare his candidacy was like having a terrible flashback. Oh no--not this again! I'm not saying we should muzzle independent voices or rule out third parties. Mr. Nader has a right to run for president. And I have a right to say, What an awful idea.

[petercooper]

No, sorry but GW Bush defeated your father, silly girl. And of course your father helped.

[ChadGore]

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[Pan_Yans Wife]

What else has Mrs. Schiff been up to? Bitterness is unbecoming.

[prion]

Ms. Gore Schiff is director of community affairs for the Association to Benefit Children.

Geez! She's the what for who? Isn't that exactly the sort of useless, make believe job you'd expect a prominent politician's daughter to snag?

[TSgt]

You have to LOVE the hyphenated name...

KARENNA GORE SCHIFF

[petercooper]

"Mr. Nader, you cost me the election. Now watch where I put this thumb."

[1rudeboy]

Schiff sniffs, "what if?"

[TUX]

the cynicism that is so corrosive to our body politicSorry Ms Gore Shaft, you Dims have a corner of the corrosive market.

[Dan Middleton]

So Nader may draw a few votes away from Lurch. Boo-hoo. We Republicans got screwed by Perot twice. (Didn't we? I can't remember if the little weirdo made it all the way to the actual election in '96.) It's only fair the Dems get screwed twice in return.

Grab a violin and sing me a sob story...

[catpuppy]

The nut does not fall far from the tree ...

[Thebaddog]

Didn't Karenna the hyphen run her daddy's campaign. She lost the election!

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

I seem to remember that she did have something to do with daddy's campaign, but I'm not sure in what capacity.

[11th Earl of Mar]

KARENNA is just mad that her father's loss means she will not get a multi-million dollar book deal. [sniff, sniff]

Wasn't she the one who hired Naomi Wolfe to change AlGore's wardrobe to earth tones?

[sirchtruth]

Since George W. Bush took office, a budget surplus of $230 billion has become a deficit of $521 billion, 2.7 million jobs have been lost, clean air standards have been weakened, civil liberties have been trampled, long-time allies have come to mistrust us, and we've spent $150 billion and almost 600 lives in a war to protect us from weapons that didn't exist. Given the extremism of Mr. Bush's first term, imagine what a lame duck Bush would do.

Thank God Bush WON the office! If you're bumbling, Iced tea drinkin, buddist temple supporting father would have won these number you've so sparsely quoted, would be at least double!!

Man are these people absolutely empty headed food trough wafflers!

Too bad your father supported such a loser, reflecting on him greatly!

[SelmaLee]

Just think Karrena, if your daddy had only carried his home state, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

That ol' Sore Loserman spirit is still alive and whining, I see.

[mondonico]

Karenna is obviously still in a snit about the FReepers who kept the "Get Out of Cheney's House" vigil outside the VEEP's residence in 12/00.

[small voice in the wilderness]

I think her job was to make daddy look more human.

Didn't work.
