4. He's always been funny
and pretty relaxed on camera. And every time he comes out, they always say 'You seem more relaxed and funny than you used to be.'
Every single time.

8. I heard his daughter on Fresh Air last week
she writes/wrote for Futurama, and has a book out, being made into a movie

she was so nice, so smart, so sweet. talked about how close her family she was, and how often mom and dad "made out" in front of them!

just about the first thought that came to mind was a comparison between her and her sisters and those spawn of satan....

15. It just shows the power of myth
Myth remains true long after it has been revealed false. People need preconceptions to deal with reality.

Like this:
Republicans 'strong' on defense.
9/11.
Republicans 'strong' on defense.

19. Of course
They did the same to John Kerry. If you took the time to actually see video of him and Gore and get to know them that you would know how they really are funny and down to earth people. The media doesn't show you who they really are for whatever reason. They always try to make democrats look "out of touch" and like they're the "rich elite" when it's really the other way around.

20. It's true. Amazing the power of repetition in the media.
That old mighty wurlitzer grinds on. And on and on, like a toothache.

Al Gore's New TV Channel: Current
by Ann Driscoll

I hope that others share my excitement about Al Gore's new TV Channel, Current. The great challenge since conglomeration is returning the media to the public, making it democratic and participatory rather than corporate and exclusive. Current, which will be launched August 1, aims to do just that. The station takes short clips produced by the public about various subjects and broadcasts them into the programming schedule. Thus the concept is a television station of video blogs (or "pods" as the station calls them). Gore has advertised Current as "the television home page for the Internet generation."

He has said that the station won't endorse a particular political ideology- rather it will allow the public who creates the clips determine the content. But, of course, the clips will accumulate to a liberal ideology. That's the beauty of the democratic framework of the station. Even aside from the demographics of the videographers (young and liberal) who will be producing the content, public participation at large has historically yielded liberal viewpoints.
