After 40 years they're getting a divorce.

I'm saddened by this....sniff sniff.

Apparently Tipper grew cold to Al's global swarming. Talk about your inconvenient truth.

It's Bush's fault!
CBS News: "It's been ten years since that oddly public passionate kiss at the Democratic convention. That was followed by Gore winning the popular vote for President but losing the electoral vote. Family friend Sally Quinn says that may have done the marriage irreparable harm."

Apparently some crazy bitch is blaming George Bush for this? I heard that earlier today, I laughed hysterically.

He goes from a net worth of $1mm to a net worth of over $100mm in less than a decade; he has at least 4 properties and a mine; he has a 100 foot yacht and flies around in a private jet ......... all the while preaching about carbon footprints, the evils of a fossil fuel society, and lecturing us about riding a bike to work. What a complete phony !!! --- and it took her 40 years to figure it out ??!!??!!

And the thought that he was damn near the president ....................... of course, look at what we have now.

Proof that being in the closet while married will eventually come back to haunt you Al. A phony indeed.

It is hard to imagine Al having won that election.

I have to confess that I've never really been a supporter of Al Gore and frankly, I don't agree with a lot of what Tipper has advocated either, but I think that when a marriage of 40 years ends, that is a sad occasion, regardless of what the circumstances might be. I understand that these things happen, and it seems that these long time marriages, which appear to the casual observer to be based on a lifetime of doing things together and raising children and struggling with this and that, and emerging on the plus side, only to break up, are becoming almost the rule, rather than the exception, and in my opinion, don't need to be aired nationally. It's really none of our business and the Gores need their privacy right now.

I agree. So would you mind telling Al Gore my personal carbon footprint is none of HIS business? Fair is fair, right?

I was so impressed with the big kiss Al laid on Tipper at the 2000 Dem convention. He should have kept doing that. How is it that Bill and Hilary are married and Al and Tipper won't be? It's a strange, strange world we live in.

Well, it helps if a Presidential candidate is married.

Do we really think HillBill is finished??! :D

Now we know why the Gore's split. The crazed sex poodle was leaving his paw prints all over some babe. The article goes into some pretty sordid details. Not only does the planet have a fever but so does Al Gore.

Then this gem. Hard to believe people can be this stupid.
Finally she got away. Later, she talked to friends, liberals like herself, who advised against telling police. One asked her "to just suck it up; otherwise, the world's going to be destroyed from global warming."
WARNING: If you have just eaten it is not recommended you read the artcle. Also have the shower ready.

Two-bit story by someone who wants 15 minutes of fame.


....and I am not a Gore fan or supporter.

Whether the masseuse's story is credible or not, it shows a complete lack of judgment by a married man to have a female masseuse delivered to your hotel room at 10:30 at night, especially when you travel with (taxpayer funded) security detail that could easily be called in to witness the massage to prevent false claims. My wife would be angry if I had a female masseuse in a hotel room by myself, let alone that late at night.

This. And we all know all about big Al's credibility.

If Tipper would have opened her "Lock Box", Al would never had to go after the masseuse. :)
