Know what?That is was satire.
To: NonZeroSum
Also, if you look at the categories, it's filed under "humor/political cartoons." Obviously from the responses it still needed the (Parody Alert!)

You posted it. Of course you knew. But you didn't put the WARNING! PARODY IN PROGRESS---that's what my post was about.

Gore should ask Amazon for a recount.Well, I just checked the real Amazon, and the book has a very gratifying (to us) rank of 712.
I just hope the next unibomber isn't busy marking up one of the five or six purchased copies it takes to get a book that coveted 712 slot.
To: NonZeroSum
Though many of the (Amazon) site designers were Gore supporters themselves, there were many complaints of difficulty in using it. WELL, DUH!!

Did it ever occur to anyone that Al Gore and his family are just plain boring? I noticed that the report came out of Seattle. Seattle is in King County which is democrazy territory. That's why we Washingtonians ended up with the likes of demorats Senators Patty "Moron" Murray and Maria Cant"budget"well, Representative Jim "The Lying Crook" McDermott and heaven forbid Governor Gary "Spend Your Money Anyway I Can" Locke.

Late night bump...

Did it ever occur to you that Gore might write better than he talks? If he doesn't, the book would have to be a pop-up.

Had to read this far to knew it was a joke. Must be getting late.
The Gore team doesn't accept this argument, and will ask the court to "estimate" the number of people who would have actually purchased the Gore book had the site been easier to manage, and randomly send them books while garnishing their wages for the cost of it.

How many "Good Trees" were wasted on making these books. It would have been better if these trees had burned to the ground in a forest fire. It would have put less "polution" into the air.

Well of course. Trees can live to be a 1000 years old.

THIS IS A PARODY. THIS IS ONLY A PARODY. I guess because I know Algores past so well, it just seemed to be so in character that I believed it was true.
Come on admit it so did you at least for a minute.

LOL! I was reading this out to my mom, then I thought wait a minute! David Boyishness? That's when I finally realised this couldn't be true. Good job!
