Your typical Gore buttboys.
A modest man, with much to be modest about.
Your typical Gore buttboys.
"A fool and his money are soon parted." My question is, How did they get together in the first place?
God, I love the smell of hypocrisy in the morning.

Gore's Tantrum Fund took in $2.1 million from just 38 individuals – or, "working families." He had 84 donations above Bush's $5,000 maximum – totaling about $2.8 million. Of those, 30 were from California and 23 from New York. (Jane Fonda lists her address as Georgia.) Only $56,216 of the Gore-Lieberman fund came from donations of $200 or less.From http://www.opensecrets.org/alerts/v5/alertv5_65b.asp:Bush raised more than $3 million in individual donations of $200 or less – more than the entire amount raised by Gore's Tantrum Fund.

*Based on data filed with the Internal Revenue Service 12/7/00.
Interestingly, Bing doesn't make a fuss about the estate tax. His professional accomplishments amount to having dropped out of Stanford – which we can assume he did not enter on the basis of his SAT scores – and then spending a decade writing a single episode of "Married With Children."Let us not forget that Bing was also producer on the Sylvester Stallone remake of "Get Carter."
In case you missed that masterpiece from 2000, here are some reviews, from http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/GetCarter-1100569/:
"The movie around Stallone is fairly dreadful, so overly stylized and poorly written that it's always a struggle to stay oriented."
