Are we referring to the same Al Gore here?
"I am Al Gore, and I used to be the next president of the United
States of America." in a speech at Bocconi University in Milan,
Italy
Gore has his own ideas about how to best use space: Send up a
satellite that will broadcast pictures of the Earth on a dedicated
cable channel.
''With global warming a growing concern, and with problems like El
Nino causing growing concern, this will be of tremendous value,''
he said.
But he should know there are eight weather satellites doing what he
proposes.
"A zebra does not change its spots." - Al Gore, attacking President
George Bush in 1992.
Mary and Joseph were homeless??
"Speaking from my own religious tradition in this Christmas season,
2,000 years ago a homeless woman gave birth to a homeless child in
a manger because the inn was full."
Hello! Mary and Joseph were not homeless!
A new type of tree!
Al Gore, giving a speech for Yellowstone National Park's 125th
Anniversary, Albright Visitors Center, Sunday, August 17, 1997:
"When we come here, we see the longpole pine and the Douglas
fir."
Sorry Al, it's LODGEpole. There is no such thing as a LONGpole
pine.
He didnt know where he was!
Al Gore visited Minneapolis Minnesota on October 12, 1998 and
raised several hundred thousand dollars for DFL gubernatorial
nominee Hubert Humphrey III and two Democratic congressmen. Too bad
he forgot which state he was in. Gore misspoke when he tried to
summarize their commitment to education. "They will be the
education team that Missouri needs to move into the 21st century,"
he said.
