Al Gore looks Angry
And George W. Bush looks Presidential.This was repeated over and over on CNN immediately after the Gore/Bush debate in 2000.
We were bewildered. In actuality, Bush's eyes looked like those of a stunned animal caught in a light beam. It was as painful to watch Bush then as it is now.
Meanwhile, Michael Moore and the Latte crowd were having their own rage. They wanted to screw Al Gore by voting for Ralph Nader.
Had Daily Kos been around in those days, "Kossacks" as they lovingly call themselves, would have joined in. "Al Gore is going Down," would be the gallant war cry.
Anybody remember why? What Michael Moore cause was so worthy that it killed off a candidate from the most peaceful presidential administration in our nation's history?
Moore, what cause justified the deaths of thousands worldwide; and pushed middle class American who were enjoying an unprecedented standard of living, back into poverty?
Moore, and the angry Lattes got their wish. They taught America a lesson it would never forget. Nobody knows what the lesson was, but we were saved from having to endure Al Gore.
When Gore tried to do a recount, CNN, MSNBC et al came up with another buzz sentence: "America wants to move on." You could not turn on the television without hearing how America was weary of the democratic process, and wanted go on and let Bush have the presidency.
What if Al Gore had stood his ground? What if he had stood up to the chanting heckling media? Americans wondered frequently.
We can see what Gore's fate would have been right now.
A new candidate is being harassed and victimized by CNN, MSNBC and friends.
This one has the spine to stand up to them and say "Hell No" to them.
No, you will NOT push me out of this primary. I have as much right to be a candidate as anyone else.
And yesterday is an example of what would have happened to Gore if he had shown a spine of steel.
The media now has a gag order on mentioning Clinton's name. She no longer exists. Only lengthy cuts of Obama and McCain are aired.
Except. Except when they find something negative about Clinton to propagandize.
And like yesterday, when there is nothing negative, to turn it into negative.
Corporate owned news is telling Clinton that if she does not get out of this race now, they will destroy her.
And now big money has a new propaganda tool. The web.
Jackals puppeted by big money are installed in every progressive blog. To make sure there is plenty of hate mongering so that things are pushed in the right direction. And that any opposition is razzed and silenced.
We'll stop now, and hear from either knowingly or unwittingly, one of said corporate puppets, hiding behind his stash of avatars.

The NYT reporters are getting their "news" straight from cable TV. The paper has completely faded out.

Slumlord, I think you'll be happy to see Hillary get wall to wall coverage today. Congratulations!

You're as nuts as Hillary.

"Latte Liberals" did NOT cost Al Gore the election in 2000. This has been refuted, ad nauseum. The Clintons themselves were poor supporters for Gore - and I guarantee you this had far more impact than ANYTHING Michael Moore could have done in your revisionist history.
The Democratic Party has not benefited from the strategy of attacking its liberal base in the last few cycles. Perhaps it's time we embrace the people who, you know, actually vote for Democrats instead of attacking them as the problem.

That is idiotic! Gore was trying to "distance" himself from the whole admin! He was foolish, but the Clintons did not do him in. Americans are so stupid that they buy into anything they see on TV or read on the net. It's all just a bill of goods you are being sold. And by the way, Obama is no better (or worse) than any of the rest of them.

Gore was crucified in the press while "liberals" pretended not to see it or actively worked to promote it.

You are completely paranoid. Your post is a sad and untrue fable.

Except the part about Bush ever looking presidential. Agree with you there. Sometimes when I look into those squinty, too-close-together eyes I wonder if there is a brain behind them at all.

Yes--Hillary Clinton's position in this primary is exactly like Gore's in the 2000 election! Did anyone mention how similar it is to the election situation in Zimbabwe? I was especially shocked when her corrupt opponent started jailing her supporters and she fled in a hail of gunfire . . .

Um...ah...he's something you and your candidate might want to consider? It's called "personal responsibility" for one's actions. You know, cause and effect?
Blaming everyone else for how things turn out doesn't shore up the legend...just a thought.

Just waking up, are you? Bet you thought this was all a bad dream, Mr Finger. It's not. It is a self-inflicted wound. Frankly, I do hope she recovers from it, but it won't be while she's running to be president.

Clearly, if we post on this thread and disagree with you, we are troll?
In case, you don't understand that, let me translate it into trollspeak:

Slumlord, your analysis is great. The Obama Cult and all its followers are in denial with the let's-all-join-in personality because their brains are not fully functioning. Their need to blindly belong to something new drives them into the abyss with parts of their brain that have become numb because of this euphoria, and they don't even need allucinogenic drugs!
