I have to wonder about Gore’s true motivation in making these allegations at this time.

Surely he’s seen that every “wild” accusation the Dems have shot at Bush have back-fired on them to the point that “back-pedaling” may soon be a new Olympic sport.

He must also be sensing that the mood at the White House is beginning to shift from ignoring the last eight years of corruption and scandal, to that of bobbing and weaving for the right place and time to take Bubba and Mrs. Bubba down a peg (i.e. The FBI serving subpoena on Hillary’s 2000 Campaign documents, being a start.).

And he’s just gotta know that Mansour Ijaz has been screaming from the highest rooftops about the “Sudanese/bin Laden” deal and that Ijaz can prove what he knew and when he knew it, without the slightest glance from the mainstream media.

So why, why make an accusation that could move this “non-story”, and other examples of Clinton malfeasance, into national prominence now?

Well, I just have to wonder if algore isn’t practicing some form of political “scorched earth policy”.

Let’s face it, Gore has been relegated to the ash heap of “political nobody-ism”, while his former boss, and the wife of his former boss bask in the adoration of the Democratic faithful.

Right now, Al Jr. has got to know that he has a better chance of becoming the Pope than winning the Presidency in 2004, or becoming the Democratic hopeful over Hillary in 2008.

But if he can “inadvertently” toss a lit cigarette out the window…and get a “Mansour-like blaze” going, then at the very least, he will have some revenge on the two people he views as most responsible for his current political standing, and loose nothing in the process.

If the flames get too close to him, he can always drag out the “wee wee break” defense that has served him so well in the past.

For those of you that think I am giving Gore way to much credit, let me just say that I am thoroughly convinced that “tree boy” has known since the first week of becoming VP, that the Clinton’s had lied to him and were never going to do anything to help him with his bid to ascend to the presidency….and that more than nine years of seething bitterness can make the dumbest of ‘em become diabolically brilliant.

It occurs to me that Gore is setting himself up for a "see I told you so" in the event of another terrorist attack, or a serious deterioration in Afghanistan or elsewhere in the mideast. A desperate move, but Gore's options are limited at this point. Long shots like this are all he has.
