Gore: Cheney 'Blackmailing Voters With Fear'
2004-09-10
I would have titled the article: Gore accuses Cheney of stealing one from the Democrat Playbook
[...] "The claim by Bush and Cheney that the American people must give them four more years in office or else be 'hit hard' by another terrorist attack is a sleazy and despicable effort to blackmail voters with fear," Gore said. "They are going back to the ugliest page in the Republican playbook: fear. They're not even trying to convince you to vote for George Bush. Their only hope is to try and make you too afraid to vote for John Kerry. It's the lowest sort of politics imaginable."
No source on this...

Hahahahahahaaa, everyone knows that where playing on people's emotions are concerned, the Democrats are uncontested masters of the craft.

#6  "Their only hope is to try and make you too afraid to vote for John Kerry."

I'd say sKerry is doing a pretty good job of that himself, along with his classy wife.

Al Gore. The political equivalent of a '70s has-been entertainer trying to make a comeback. Al, if you really care about America, please go away.

#5  This just verifies that the 2000 election result was "devine provinence" and that the Supremes did the right thing. History will show that in 2000 the greatest nation on earth almost elected a moonbat as its president. Can you imagine a world post 9/11 with the following roster of Gore, Chirac, Putin and Schroeder?

#4  What Chaney actually said was that if the two Johns are elected and we are hit again the response from the Two Johns Administration would most likely be a law inforcement response and not a military one. The MSM has really distorted his words and meaning. He didn't say if the Two Johns are elected we will be hit again and it will be the voters' fault as has been reported.
