Hello again, faithful readers; I'm back. My time has been diverted elsewhere recently, but every once in a while they 'drag me back in!'
Today's politician with a bright red-and-yellow bullseye on his chest (not to mention egg on his face) is our faithful Veep, El Gorro, champion of PAC's, direct foreign investment (figure it out), and free cell phones for politicians.
It seems he was all set to host an hour-long episode of Larry King Live with his special guest and Gore-lover, Oprah Winfrey, dealing with the Littleton, Colorado tragedy. That is, of course, until CNN received a bunch of emails asking that all the Presidential candidates be afforded an equal opportunity to present their views for free. So CNN, "after taking a long, hard look at the political calendar" (Larry King's words), had King return to host the show and pushed El Gorro into the guest's seat.
In response to this, the (solely) self-proclaimed 'Father of the Internet' said that the Littleton massacre "ought to be separated from politics." This from the man who was just about to mix the two as much as possible, including getting free airtime from CNN and Ted 'Lefty' Turner!
And I thought *I* knew Clintonspeak! Gore's quote has just the right mix to confuse the rubes.
