Again, well said. I don't disagree so much with what you say as how you direct it. Gore is demonstrably dishonest but it's Bush you distrust on instinct. Isn't the reason Gore is so easily "digested to a sound bite" due to the wide career-long vasillations he's made in his life--he needs sound bites as an avoidance of (rather than a clarification) what he's done/said?
