The Tribune-Review has had lots of charming editorials over the years, and continues today. From the "Sunday Pops" section of their op-ed page, they share their respect for Al Gore with their readers. Nice friend you have there, Hillary:

"Former Vice President Al Gore says on tonight's "60 Minutes" that those who doubt man's role in global warming are akin to those who once thought the Earth was flat or think the moon landings were staged. Of course, the world should take Internet inventor Al Gore, the fella with a serious "sigh" problem, about as seriously as it would Professor Ludwig von Drake, the nutty professor from Disney's Donald Duck cartoons. It's pretty difficult to have less credibility than a cartoon character, but Gore pulls it off."

1. I am just amused that any HRC supporter really believes that her right wing support....

....is really on her side. IF she were to get the nomination, they will turn on her so fast she'll never know what hit her.

6. Poor things have no choice to but to

believe only the best about whomever hilary needs to hoist her over the wall. Watch out, hilary!...that's your own f'n petard.

7. That's true

15. Maybe Scaife *is* on her side, and this is the beginning of

"Al Gore doesn't matter"

because someone thinks he might be about to endorse Obama.

17. it'll serve her right when they do turn on her

when you sleep with the sharks, you're liable to lose a limb or two

20. BushInc loved the 90s as they marched towards fascism, covered up illegal operations while

and did so under the cover of the BIG FIGHT with the Clintons.

The 90s attacks on the Clintons helped obscure the coverups throughout the 90s that allowed the return of Bush in 2000.

Dog and pony show for both bases while fascism pressed forward.

2. Both Al Gore and von Drake are brilliant men of science in their own right.

Er, one is a brilliant duck of science...

3. Gore must be fixin to endorse Obama

[MH1]

16. My first thought on reading the op, too.

4. Scaife knows the best way to get McCain in is to support Hillary.

They are using each other to further their own ends.

8. Hillary supporters rejoice- YEAH, HE SUPPORTS HILLARY AND TRASHES GORE

Richard Mellon Scaife is SCUM.

9. I suppose stupid scaife didn't hear about

the Ice Cap that broke off in the Anartica?

10. How pathetic!

Thanks Hillary and PukeScaife!


Gore has more class in one brain cell than you do in the millions of wasted space Scaife.

11. amazing how hillary supporters never come to some threads.

I can't wait to see if Bill defends scaife's support.

12. I have this feeling they all have me on "ignore."

They seem to do that a lot, and together. They don't care much for dissent. But, they miss the fun, too. That's OK, I'll keep swinging at them anyway.

13. Ludwig von Drake

I loved disney cartoons and comics when I was a kid. I think Ludwig was always pretty good in the credibility department. On par with Bill Nye, the Science Guy, anyway.

And Ludwig's credibility is exponentially higher than anyone that's ever served in the GWB White House.

Gore compared to von Drake is not unflattering to Gore, in other words.

18. I'm a fan, too, of Ludwig Von Drake. Loved the comic book, cartoons.

Obviously, though, Scaife's thugs did not mean it as a compliment.

[merh]

14. that's okay

attacks on the dem leadership doesn't matter, hill has slain this dragon and all is right in the world. :sarcasm:

19. You lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas....

you might want to put some calamine lotion on those itchy red spots, Hillary.
