And he didn't know he was going to a Buddhist temple to fund-raise either. Ah, the innocence of politicians.

I'm sure they thought that they were ordering the egg-drop soup. The picture was a throw-in.

To prove his point, he gave the Sun a contract regarding the appearance that lists the client as “DnmStrategies For Service to BusinessWeek.”

A misprint in the contract. That would be "DimStrategies". English is no longer the official language in Hong Kong.

“If this is true, it’s a pretty severe lapse in judgment,” a spokesman for the Republican National Committee, Dan Ronayne, said when contacted by The New York Sun. “It’s mildly shocking that he’d put himself in a position for this kind of potential embarrassment.”

What a great line that last one! It's only mildly shocking because we're so used to Gore embarrassing himself! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA......

“We were not paid in any way for any photographs,” a spokesman for Mr. Gore, Jano Cabrera, said.

I'd like to know if there is any relationship between the convicted drug dealer and contributor to the Dims Jorge Cabrera and this spokesman Jano Cabrera. Would anybody be surprised if there was?

I checked the Memphis Commie Appeaser, the Nashville Bredesean, the Knox(ville) News Sentinel and they had NARY a word on Algorebatross' STEALTH visit to China.

IF he had nothing to hide he would have announced he was going and why he was going.

Oddly enough, I didn't see this listed on his book tour itinerary either.....

As Anne Coulter points out in her great book, Slander, the dems are the one's perennially calling Pubbies dumb, dumb, dumb. Well, this guy has got to be the dumbest politician out there. The advantage the Dem dummies have is that their brethren in the press cover for them 25/7. Now that Drudge and Fox are on the loose, that aint so easy anymore. V's wife.

[anniegetyourgun]

Here's to hoping the lib/dems keep 'misunderestimating' conservatives and conservatism!

Ah, the innocence of politicians.

lol.......and bump!

...The Gore camp insists the former vice president and 2000 presidential candidate has done nothing wrong, and disputes the accuracy of the report...

You have to put some coins in the monkey's cup to see it dance.....

Certainly was bad judgement for him to call the VRWC "fifth columnists" when he took money from a foreign power aimed at bringing this country down.

Conference participants had the opportunity to have their photos taken with Mr. Gore in exchange for cash, the South China Morning Post reported.

Everytime I think they hit a new low.....

[NautiNurse]

I wonder whether Senator John Kerry's office and Terry McAwful are reponsible for this story.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Conference participants had the opportunity to have their photos taken with Mr. Gore in exchange for cash, the South China Morning Post reported.

Did they have their pictures taken with Gore or with a cardboard cut-out of Gore?
And how could anybody tell the difference?

Does Clinton know about this ?
