59. You are obsessed with telling people he shouldn't run.
"I understand his words fine and the reasons why he stated them because I'm not one obsessing over him running as if it is the only damn thing we need to worry about right now, and I am beginning to question the motives of those who do NOTHING but that here."

Just about every single one of your posts has been vehemently opposed to a Gore run. Pardon me if I don't take you seriously when you say you aren't "obsessing" over him running, because you clearly are.

And just in case your sentence included a backhanded reference to me, I invite you to search for some of my posts and determine for yourself if they are all about Gore, which they clearly aren't (and never have been).

"It is people here such as yourself who constantly give the false impression that he is some sort of prevaricating conniving liar that angers me, because he is not."

I never accused Gore of lying. Never. Maybe when you start debating honestly, you will know better than to put words in my mouth.

I see the skill, however, is far beyond your capabilities at this time.

"If he says he doesn't have plans, he doesn't have plans."

Yet. One can make plans. Another concept clearly beyond your reach.

"If he says he has fallen out of love with politics and does not foresee planning on running, he isn't."

Then pray tell, O scholar of all things Gore, why he continually says that he "won't rule out" a run?

Why not issue a statement with exactly the same certainty as the one in 2002, where he definitively said "I will not run in 2004"? Answer me that.

You can't, so you keep changing the subject. I'm calling you on your bullshit. Your whining and temper tantrums are a result of this.

"I respect and believe his words and I support his work now which is INFINITELY more important than BS speculation and political maneuvering."

Some of us feel he can do a better job pushing for climate change as president. A pity you won't listen to even the most reasonable voices on this topic. Anyone who agrees with you is wrong, thinks Gore is a liar, etc., yes, we know already. Can you play any other tunes?

"And if you really gave a damn about this planet you would be doing more than pissing on people who do care."

Oh, so all of a sudden I'm anti-Earth? Are you psychic now? You don't know a goddamn thing about who I am or what my motives are. You sure think you're psychic, though, enough to lead you to break the DU rules. Can you tell what I had for breakfast this morning, too? Or does your clairvoyance start (and end) with politics? :eyes:

Every time someone disagrees with you, you question their motives. Every time someone presents a valid reason why Gore would make a great president, you attack them. You repeat that you don't think Gore should run and that you care so much about the environment, but if you really did, maybe you'd consider laying off the cheap personal attacks, learning to respect other people's views and using your extra time to go plant some trees.
