Would you vote for Gore?

[ghost squire]

Simple, would you vote for Gore if he went pro-gun, or at least decidedly not anti-gun?

Keep it civil and smart as I may be linking Mr. Al Franken to this thread.

 

[meef]

You have GOT to be kidding? This is a joke, right?



Haw Haw Haw Har Har!!!

Whoa, stop it! You're killing me!

Whew! Wheeze! Gasp!

Damn man, you had me going going there for a second.....

So.... have you ever considered a second career in comedy writing?

 

[The-Fly]

would hugely depend on who ran against him. I am not a big fan of socialist / big government type vote buyers. Hypothetically, if a pro-gun gore ran against bush, i'd vote for gore in a heart beat. But sadly the reality is that the Democratic party refuses to run a mainstream canidate. They only seem to think that a nanny state can save us from ourselves. So our choice has boiled down to a Democrat Socialist vs a Republican Bible Nazi / Fascist for the foreseeable future

 

[ghost squire]

meef I'm not joking. I want the left to realise that a lot of us don't want to have to choose between a rabidly anti-gun alternative to a neutral gun policy <(bleep)>.

If the Democrats decide to stay anti-gun for this election, I will be voting for either Condoleeza or Mr. McCain depending on his policies.

 

[SnP]

Once a comie always a commie. I wouldn't be able to vote for him.

 

[Maxwell]

Chances are if Gore whent "pro-gun" he would just be fibbing to get votes.
No way, zero, negative on any chance of getting my vote.

For any Democrat to get a vote from me at this point in the game, they would have to prove their more than just talk when it comes to guns and rkba.
I wanna see some favorable laws passed, unfavorable laws repealed, or lengthy speaches from them about the values of our second amendment.

Otherwise its all winks and nods with no actions or even a promise for change.

 

[motoman]

Just remember........

With out ALGORE, none of us would be posting to this website. He did invent the internet ya know!

 

[Smith357]

I would not vote for him even if he invented the internet.

 

[GoRon]

Al Gore would destroy our economy with his environmental extremism.

If he became "pro gun" it would be a flip flop flip of monumental proportions.

Has he articulated a plan for dealing with those who have declared war on us? Or is he still just sniping at the current administrations policies?

 

[ghost squire]

With out ALGORE, none of us would be posting to this website. He did invent the internet ya know!

You may in fact be correct. Al Gore was one of the very first to realise the potential of ARPANET and funded it. Without him we would probably be years and years behind.

And he never said he invented the internet, I believe it was Ann Coulter who put that notion out.

Another Bushclone would destroy our environment with his economic extremism

Too correct sir! I'll check you off for yes.

 

[gc70]

I might if I were drunk enough at the time. Luckily, I don't drink, so NO.

Tigers don't change their stripes and neither do politicians. I have no idea whether Gore is really personally against guns or not, but he has at least proven that he would happily trash the RKBA to endear himself to the Democratic Party and gather votes. If Gore changed his tune, I would trust him no more than any other politician who adjusts his rhetoric in response to polling results.

 

[ElTacoGrande]

No way. He's rabidly and solidly anti-gun. And anti-freedom in general. Very few of you have even heard of this, but look up the Clipper Chip on Google, learn about it, what it was, and Gore's role in it. You'll see he has some pretty consist cross-issue ideas about freedom.

Alas the current administration is maybe only marginally better.

 

[GoRon]

And he never said he invented the internet, I believe it was Ann Coulter who put that notion out.

Actually he did say he invented the Internet

1999 CNN interview

On 1999-03-09, Wolf Blitzer had an interview with Gore on CNN's Late Edition [2]. During this interview, Gore said,

During my service in the United States Congress I took the initiative in creating the Internet. I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country's economic growth and environmental protection, improvements in our educational system.

Let me say though he was very instrumental in the formation of the Internet as we know it and I think he coined the term "Information Highway".

He actually seems unbalanced when I hear him speak.

 

[SolaScriptura139]

I would not vote for him. Not because so much of his personal political stance, even IF it did change to pro-gun, but because it would give the Democrats more leverage in making policy, and most of them are anti's.

 

[Don't Tread On Me]

This thread has got to be a joke. Putting Gore in the Whitehouse is almost the same as putting Feinstein in there.

 

[ACP230]

No.

Gore's propensity to tax everything that moves, and everything that sits still, and his radical environmentalism, would still be a big problem for me.

You say that, then provide me with a link that shows he in fact didn't say he invented the internet. What he said was true. Saying he invented the internet isn't. Saying he said he invented the internet is also not true.

Allright, I can see from the results of this little poll that very few of us would vote for Gore if he theoretically became an assault rifle enthusiast.

Looks like I'll probably vote for Condoleeza Rice. BTW, in surfing the internet I came upon this little gem:
http://www.blackcommentator.com/142/142_think_condi.html

Where, Professor Bogus <Art was here> has this to say: “The Second Amendment was not enacted to provide a check on government tyranny; rather, it was written to assure the Southern states that Congress would not undermine the slave system by using its newly acquired constitutional authority over the militia to disarm the state militia and thereby destroy the South’s principal instrument of slave control.” He explains, “The Second Amendment’s history has been hidden because neither James Madison, who was the principal author of the Second Amendment, nor those he was attempting to outmaneuver politically, laid their motives on the table.”


Hmm... that poll is looking decidedly like someone flipping the bird... but to who?

 

[1 old 0311]

FRANKEN????????GORE?????????????? OK now I am ready for the punch line...........Or is that it?

Kevin

 

[1 old 0311]

p.s. Look for the link on Condi Rice. She would kick any Dems ass.

 

[Waitone]

Al Gore advocates dangerous and harmful ideologies. I think his psychology renders him unfit for high level public office.

This country desperately needs a viable, functioning democratic party. Al Gore ain't the one to lead it.

 

[Ohen Cepel]

Why would I believe that he really changed?

 

[GoRon]

During my service in the United States Congress I took the initiative in creating the Internet

Main Entry: create
Part of Speech: verb
Definition: develop
Synonyms: actualize, author, beget, build, coin, compose, conceive, concoct, constitute, construct, contrive, design, devise, discover, dream up, effect, erect, establish, fabricate, fashion, father, forge, form, formulate, found, generate, hatch, imagine, initiate, institute, invent, invest, make, occasion, organize, originate, parent, perform, plan, procreate, produce, rear, set up, shape, sire, spawn, start

He embellished his role in inventing/creating the Internet.

I then gave him his due and credited him with his work on getting the Internet as we know it up and running.

 

[CSA 357]

nope! not even for dog catcher,

 

[ghost squire]

GoRon, I knew you were going to use the synonym argument, as did Coulter. Al Franken rebutts by saying that Ann Coulter said she was friendly with him, and a synonym of friendly is intimate .

Obviously not every synonym of a word has the same meaning, otherwise we would have a few hundred word dictionary. Gore chose the perfect word, because he didn't take the iniative in inventing the internet, simply in creating it. That is not an embellishment at all, he quite literally took the iniative in creating the internet.

 

[rhubarb]

I owe Gore my eternal gratitude. Al Gore inspired me to vote for the first time in my life at the age of 28 in 2000.

I voted against the Gore/Bush ticket and for Liberty.

NO! I would not vote for Gore even if he proposed a new law to provide every adult American with a 1911 and an AR. 'Cause that's the way he thinks: Life is richer when it is guided by government edict.
