Gore being interviewed (on tape) by Leslie Stahl, announces he will not run for the 2004 democratic presidential nomination.

Those of you on the West coast, be sure to see the beginning when Bill Clinton is featured in a teaser for anothe story--the sore on his mouth is frightening!

[Howlin]

Thanks for that visual.

[Wait4Truth]

Perhaps, but not like President Bush is. Clinton and his team chortled about all the traps they set for Bush in the final weeks that he was in office. One was quoted as laughing and saying, "Bush has 4 years to get things all straightened out again." I found that truly disgusting. I think we have a great President and I will never forgive scumball clinton for what he has done to this country.

Stahl, to her credit, asked if he expected the economy to spiral down for several years (or words to that affect). Of course, there's the variable of terrorism, that no president can predict or deflect in terms of what it does to our economy.

My stomach turns even THINKING about sleeping with that diseased man...I would join a convent first.

I have NEVER understood this. Apparently he is very charismatic in person, but so what? Why does mere personal magnetism make women fling themselves at this pasty, overweight, piggy-eyed, wet-mouthed, red-nosed trash skank with the reputation that he has? I guess these are the same women who throw themselves at senile 80 year old millionaires on the brink of the grave just for the power and the money.

[Paul Atreides]

I remember, back in the early to mid 90s, that Rush Limbaugh was talking about the Clinton economic numbers coming in and said that they weren't reliable and that as soon as he left office, we would be left with a bad economy. I think he also said it on his television show. Does anyone else remember this?

[Wait4Truth]

Matthews is against the war on Iraq. Since then, he has been totally anti-Bush. He sounds no different than Phil Donahue now. I didn't watch his show with gore but the one he did with hillary was disgusting. He might just as well have kissed her feet and her a$$. He is a liberal. I used to watch him all the time, now I don't watch him at all. His ratings have dropped, too, and I am glad.

[Paul Atreides]

Just look at the women who will go back to a lazy, scraggly, rotten, filthy, good-for-nothing, no ambition, abuser. I think there is a certain type of woman who gets a kick out of being used and discarded by trailer trash.

[Wait4Truth]

If President Bush was a democrat, the media would be throwing flowers at his feet on a daily basis. He gets no credit for anything ONLY because he's a Republican. What goes around comes around...maybe the good Lord will make them all pay someday.

[Paul Atreides]

He is also a fraud. He was complaining to a reporter that Hillary wanted the questions in advance. He has reported the same thing on his own show! Then he comes across with all of this fake shock. From what I heard, Hillary didn't have anything to worry about. I'm glad his show is tanking too.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

Why does mere personal magnetism make women fling themselves at this pasty, overweight, piggy-eyed, wet-mouthed, red-nosed trash skank with the reputation that he has?

I am convinced that women have extremely strange taste in men.

For example, I've got a gorgeous wife.

[AnAmericanMother]

I know.

And when the pig beats them up they show up in court with two black eyes and a missing tooth and drop the charges "Buhkawz Ah LUUUUUVV Him!"

Just makes you want to cry. But you can't save people from themselves.

Since you mention it, he does look like the poster child for "trailer trash". There's a certain facial type (and expression) that goes with the lowest of the low Southern non-working poor. My grandmother (and Florence King in her masterly book Southern Ladies and Gentlemen )described it as "that garfish look." He's got it.

[MJY1288]

I certainly do remember that, Although all politicians have a way of spinning the numbers. Clinton did it at warp speed

[Howlin]

I want to see it!

[Sungirl]

DOes anyone know this supposed connection with Tipper and Heinz company?

[AnAmericanMother]

It must be your kind heart. :-D

Which he hasn't got.

[MJY1288]

Don't count out 'The Beast" in 2004, She is 2nd only to Gore in the Polls of potential RATS to run in 2004. Don't think for a second the Carpet Bagging Clinton won't break her promise to the people of New York

[Wait4Truth]

I must be some different kind of woman. I never found clinton attractive. In 2000, a poll taken showed women thought gore was more attractive than Bush. I didn't agree with that, either. I thought gore looked like a wooden, gay Indian. I thought Bush was attractive, friendly and warm. Clinton made the hair on the back of my neck stand up the very first time I saw him. As far as democrats go, I think Evan Byah is kind of attractive...John Edwards looks like a baby clinton-clone, Kerry is an elitist snob...oh, I better stop now. LOL

[Paul Atreides]

One night I was watching COPS, and a guy was being hauled away because his girlfriend called the cops on him for hitting her. Immediately when the cops told him to put his hands behind his back the girl stops sobbing and asking them not to do it. As they put him in the car, the girl says to the guy "I luuuuv you!", to which the guy doesn't reply. She is left sobbing on the sidewalk.

[Wait4Truth]

There are women like that. My own mother allowed two different husbands to beat her for years before she finally got a clue. I, on the other hand, would never even dream of tolerating anything like that. I learned from watching her.
