If nothing else, I doubt that President Bush would ever have defended a man against a charge of rape by saying, effectively, "It doesn't really matter if he did rape her. He's done so much other good and he should be judged by that, not some 20 year old rape."

OK, I gave you attribution for all my Bush Crime Family charges. Now send me your attribution for this quote (and I use the term loosely) of Gore's.
Time to put up or shut up....

I told you not to pick a fight

You also use the term "attribution" loosely. You didn't attribute anything, you just threw out charges. At a town meeting during the campaign a woman asked Gore something very much like:

As a father, how do you explain to your daughter the allegation of rape - and as a social worker I think the allegation is credible - how do you explain the allegation of rape against the President and your continued working with him.

Gore's answer was much like what I said. He told the woman that he hadn't paid any attention to that because it hadn't been proven (although he paid a lot of attention to the Bush cocaine charge which hadn't even been alleged). He told her that, even if true, men make mistakes and you have to look at all the good Bill Clinton has done. It was broadcast at the time and had very limited play in the news. I'll bet there are those on Free Republic who can still point to an article.

Guys and Gals? A little help?

Shalom.

First, go to the menu at the top of the screen (not the browser menu) and select Archives. Then in the Search tool type "Gore rape" without the quotes and click the Go button. You'll get several articles. One interesting article appears here. If I recall from my days as a NH resident, the Union Leader isn't exactly a right-wing fanatical rag. Take a look and enjoy.

Shalom
