Gore Bashes Bush Policy As Cause of Biz Scandals
New York Daily News ^ | 6/28/02 | JOEL SIEGEL and LEO STANDORA

Posted on 06/28/2002 2:04:38 AM PDT by kattracks

Beating what's likely to be the Democratic war drum in this year's elections, Al Gore blamed the nation's economic scandals — from Enron to WorldCom — last night on President Bush's economic policies.

"You see now what it means to have an administration that's that committed to fighting and working on behalf of the powerful, and letting the people of this country get the short end of the stick," Gore told more than 200 supporters at a Manhattan fund-raiser.

It was his strongest attack yet on Bush's economic policies and a preview of the likely Democratic strategy for November's elections.

"What we see now is a lack of confidence in our national economic policy, in the integrity of our accounting system, in the way government is being run," Gore told more than 200 supporters in Lot 61, a trendy Chelsea night spot.

The private companies, he said, "are not telling the truth about their future liabilities so they can shovel money out to executives at the top. That is exactly what the Bush-Cheney tax plan will do. They are misleading the country about the extent of the liabilities they are putting on us ... on you."

Gore also said the Securities and Exchange Commission isn't doing its job, and he called on its chairman, Harvey Pitt, to resign, suggesting Pitt is too cozy with captains of industry.

Al Gore is like a little kid. Nannie, nannie boo boo. I'm telling Mom, I'm telling teacher, I'm telling media, I'm telling anyone who will listen while I whine, tattletale, cry, blame, accuse, point fingers and all that kiddie stuff. Man, this guy never lets up. He is to be pitied or else I would laugh my head off at him. He can't let go. Hey Al...for God' sake...face it man. You LOST. Sore/Loserman remember? You prove that Sore/Losermern slogan every single time you open your mouth. Have some sense of dignity man and let it go! Personally, Al, I think you should be very thankful President George W. Bush is at the helm and was at the helm on 9-11. You could not have handled this situation in the manner GWB has. I think a lot of people realize this now and are most grateful to have President Bush in charge and he is doing one heck of a job so STOP with the accusations. Each time you do something like this you prove you would never have been up to being the Leader of the greatest country on God's earth. Give it a rest Please?!!!!

As you say, somebody needs to remind that idiot that most of this was happening during his and Bill's 8 year party in Washington. Now its up to the adults to clean up the mess they left.

This will apparently be the main issue the RATs will spin in hopes of picking up some seats in November.

Irony is all the hanky panky began under Clinton/Gore's watch!
GOP has to make that clear to Americans and go after the corporate corruption.

You are so right! And ... this little tantrum is just another perfect example of how the "projection" technique works. Here is algore blaming Bush for the problems the Clinton admin created ... which by the projection technique standards mean the dems are really guilty of causing the big fraud problems.

It's simple - all you have to do is listen to what they try to blame on the Bush admin, and you can believe it's really the Clinton admin who is to blame.

These people are so easy to read - and they don't even know we can figure out what they were doing just by what they are trying to blame on someone else. Pathetic!!
