I Can't Take It Anymore! Just One Small Post About Al Gore
I've been trying to be good, really, I have, and leave commentary about this matter to others; mainly, various of my favorite disrespectful radio personalities.
But while catching up on Andrew Bolt's blog this afternoon (which I visit, let the record show, because it is informative, insightful and 99.9% POLITICAL) in the Herald Sun, naturally, as the former vice president is a political figure, I had to click on Bolt's post Friday about "taking it for the team" and the Portland police re-re-opening the investigation into the masseuse's allegations. And naturally, not wishing to be rude, I perused the comments. They included the following exchange.
Anthony of Ryde requests:
Can I suggest the Al Gore sex allegations stop been covered in this blog. They are unsubstianted allegations made by one person, which after been investigated by police were not pursued further. They are only be reopened because of media coverage. If it turns out there is truth to the allegations, this can be reported but until then they should be taken with a grain of salt.
To which ML replies:

Thank you, Monique.
While it is an "Enquirer story". the Enquirer has new credibility since the story on the "hair cut" from North Carolina.
Posted by: Warrington Faust at July 4, 2010 10:23 PMI wonder if the Enquirer would be eligible for taxpayer bucks included in any newspaper industry subsidy/bailout plan? Probably not
It is a sad commentary on print journalism when they get scooped like this. It only seems to happen when the target isn't a Republican.

Good one ML! Good find Monique!
Posted by: George at July 6, 2010 1:41 AMWhen I was young the Enquirer was a piece of fish wrapping featuring weird stories like alien abduction,being held prisoner by a mad dwarf scientist,etc.mixed in with unretouched photos of fatal auto crashes.It might've raised a few eyebrows in ahome for the feeble-minded.
