Moores "farenheit 9/11", you can see with your own eyes Gore shout down the Congressional Black Caucus when they attempt to contest voting irregularites on a "point of order" which is like saying that you can't call for help when you are gettting mugged in a hospital quiet zone<br />3.] early in his campaign, Gore's corporate paymasters had him stop talking about things that people wanted to hear [see "crashing the party" by ralph nader]<br />In short, the dems blaming their losses on Mr. Nader is like a street-walking hooker blaming their V.D. on Mother Theresa!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
