Official Al Gore Daily Show Thread!

[tallahasseedem]

Let the games begin!

[pstans]

1. This should be good!

:toast: :party:

[tallahasseedem]

2. He is on!

[liberalpragmatist]

3. Already?

Is this one of those "do-the-interview"-first shows or is it already the second segment?

[tallahasseedem]

4. I think it will be a two segment interview.

Jon is giving him the upmost respect, its awesome.

[Up2Late]

6. Usually when the guest comes on this early...

...oh wait, he just said he will be back after the break.:evilgrin:

[Mika]

5. First segment was equating Dems to repukes on "cut & run" wordsmithing

I am pissed at JS for it.

:mad:

[tallahasseedem]

7. I dont think he was equating it...

I think they were pointing out the absurdity of the bumper sticker slogans. Quite frankly, Kerry's was dumb.

[Mika]

15. He equated the two sides re: the debate

The two sides speeches during the debate were night and day. The Daily Show equated them and did just what the fair and balanced MSM did/does - reduced both sides to bumper sticker slogans.

[onehandle]

8. Man he looks great!

Not being President has saved him the ten years of aging for every term that Presidents serve.

[Gold Metal Flake]

9. " I think I carried Florida"

Damn right he did!

[ThomWV]

10. Amen To That!

[Cha]

12. Jon: "If a couple

of Jewish ladies could have figured out the butterfly ballot he could be President!"

[Gold Metal Flake]

18. But that is the BS.

The truth is that the NYT studied FLA and in a general recount Gore wins. Jon is not there yet. He needs to read the article.

[Cha]

21. My take on that was

that Jon was just telling a joke and anyway Al set him straight when he said, "I think I carried Florida"!

[madokie]

13. he actually said that, wow

[tallahasseedem]

16. Yep.

At the beginning. I almost started sobbing.

[madokie]

27. now I am

[onehandle]

17. Yep. nt

[faithnotgreed]

11. he got a huge loving response from the audience

they would have continued but jon had to start the interview sometime

[bettyellen]

19. yep, listen to them roar. people are pissed he didn't win.

even if they weren't at the time.
hey you!
:hi:

[faithnotgreed]

30. ha - when i saw that was you i was going to post the same thing

hey you!
(except i dont have the cute smiley thing)

hope youre doing great .....
and i know youve seen all the recent stories of various religious leaders calling out bush

your work couldnt be more timely or important

[bettyellen]

31. yes you do have that smiley... type :hi: or look above the subject line

and click on the smilies look up table!

loveya, eyesroll and hi are the most popular. but you need to snadwich them between a pair of these :

yep, lotsa good stuff in the news lately!

[faithnotgreed]

34. wait - so i "need to snadwich them between a pair of these"

and then you left me hanging

what are these that i should know about






i think im light on sleep so im getting silly(er) .....

[bettyellen]

36. these : : , yes the colon!! so do this :hi: in the message and then it

becomes :hi:
or try bounce or woohoo ;)
it doesn;t work in the subject line, only the message part.
the only ones you don't need a colon for are standard smilies like :* and :P
you can see how to type them next to the images in the smilies look up.

[faithnotgreed]

40. oh ok gotcha

thanks for the tutorial
im ultra low tech in some ways

i do get a kick out of some of the smileys though - no matter how many times i see them they still make me - well - smile

hope youll have a great day and thanks

[Alexodin]

14. Al Gore's natural dignity is so refreshing. He truly is a great man.

What a contrast to the childish and improper behavior of *.

[megatherium]

20. Just saw it. Gore was terrific -- quick witted and personable.

Clever exchange by Stewart and Gore about Florida.

[mucifer]

clever exchange with stewart and colbert about denying science

[Lars39]

22. I loved the deference Stewart showed Mr. Gore when he came in.

[mucifer]

23. colbert's interview with baer should be good. he's the "syrianna" cia guy

[tallahasseedem]

24. I loved that as well.

He deserved the wonderful treatment Jon showed him.

[StellaBlue]

25. DAMN! I forgot all about it! (how the FUCK did that happen?)

I went to see Superman, and then got a call from friends to meet up for coffee, completely forgetting about dear old Al! WTF?!?!?!

I've seen EVERY TV appearance he's done so far!

Now I have to stay up til 12 to see the repeat, even though I have an interview at 8am (don't worry, it's a seven-minute walk from my house to the interview).

26. Al Gore: The new "Man in Black" .... n/t

[Alexodin]

29. As Johnny Cash once said,

"I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down, livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town, I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime, but is there because he's a victim of the times."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Cash

I think Al Gore's choice of black attire is appropriate given the circumstances.

[diamondsndust]

32. oh me too ...

I meant that as an honorable title for him, not to degrade the way he was dressed. He has a message that needs to be heard.

[ourbluenation]

28. west coasties...2 more hours!

glad I saw this thread...i almost forgot

[Viva_La_Revolution]

35. One more hour. :) nt

[hopeisaplace]

33. I have to scream it: I. LOVE. Al. GORE.

Smart, decent, caring, a doer, ....he is a born leader, truly a wonderful man.
Congratulations USA you have a winner, Al Gore.
