He said, "We have to do what's best for the country, and it is not good for the country to have this kind of divisiveness. And he was on the phone, really calling off the dogs. There were people who wanted to fan the … the flames of the racial issue and have real unrest. And he was on the phone asking them not to, because of what was best for the country not because of what was best for him politically. And that's really who he is.

Alright, everybody together now:

Awwwwwwww....
Isn't that special?

I sure believe her, how about YOU?

Karenna's statement jumped out at me, too. I believe this as much as her father's statement that he invented the internet.

This is pure bravo sierra. Anybody have the URL of the (surprisingly) excellent series of articles in the Washington Post about the Gore loss? One of the articles explicitly mentioned that after the GOP street protests spread, he got on the phone with the unions to bus their members to DC to the Observatory protests.

Coincidentally, that weekend was notable for the actions of a Gore supporter who confronted and suckerpunched a 12 year old boy with a Bush sign and the sad scene of the Gore contingent refusing to say anything to the police when they were questioned about the incident.

I haven't posted on FR since those days (used to go as gogo) - can't even remember my old password so thus my new handle, but man Gore and his ilk seriously piss me off in how deceitful they can be. Everything he and his progeny are saying are lies. GOP bussing, my ass!

And Frum has the numbers all wrong. 4 dozen of us? More like 66 dozen at the height of Gore's attempted power grab.
