3. Man you Hillary supporters are nastier than even many repukes I've seen...

[think]

6. indeed /nt

[grasswire]

13. did you capture that?

I'd like to see it.

[Autumn]

17. I hoped someone did. I alerted but he deleted it mid jury.

[Gomez163]

25. I think half my hides have come from crap like this with HUMORLESS Bernie people.

[Autumn]

28. I don't find any humor in calling a person fat. But please proceed

and be aware your transparency page is visible and there is nothing humorous about your 12 nasty and well deserved hides. I'm only sorry that you didn't get a well deserved #13.

[Gomez163]

29. I feel sorry for you.

[Autumn]

43. No need to feel sorry for me. I don't call people fat and pretend it's a joke

[Gomez163]

44. OK, Sparky

[dinkytron]

49. Total dipshit behavior.

Mission accomplished. No one can ever accuse you of elevating the discussion.

[840high]

45. Your transparency page tells

me you don't think before you post.

[floriduck]

4. You've outdone yourself. That's the most value you'd ever added and its nil.

[bahrbearian]

5. Call it Skinner

7. do you have something against fat people, Gomer?

[think]

2. Al Gore needs to say this loud and clear again and again! K&R!

[Peace Patriot]

8. Great speech!

Thanks for posting it!

[Gomez163]

9. Al Gore is F** is a frigging Internet In Joke meant in jest.

Jesus T*ts.

[Gomez163]

10. I own two goddam Al Gore written books for Christ Sake.

[Autumn]

11. So you say. At least you deleted your shocked comment about his weight

nasty as that was. I never thought I would see someone on DU call Al Gore fat.

[Gomez163]

12. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU????

[Autumn]

15. Not a damn thing. I didn't call Al Gore fat. You fucking did.

[Warren DeMontague]

18. Talking to yourself, champ?

[Gomez163]

16. Bernie People - Get a sense of humor.

Al Gore is F** has been an internet meme for TEN YEARS.

I love Al Gore. I voted for Al Gore. I once dated a woman that was so in love with Al Gore that she dated me because I kinda looked like Al Gore.

I have seen An Inconvenient Truth 10 times.

I own two of his books.

Need I go further?????

[Warren DeMontague]

19. "It's just a joke" is what abusers say.

I think you need to check your privilege.

[Gomez163]

20. AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[Warren DeMontague]

30. Now you are committing microaggressions as well as culturally appropriating roundhead-Americans

[Gomez163]

31. Its a fair cop.

[KeepItReal]

21. Learn when and how to tell a joke or use snark.

You just made an insulting statement with no disarming sarcasm, just kidding, or anything of the sort.

If that was a meme you quoted, it must have died quickly, as it should have.

[Gomez163]

23. I give up. SMH.

[JI7]

26. among those who hate Gore

[Gomez163]

27. Nope. It was an in joke at Daily Kos and Eschaton and those are liberal sites.

Saw it almost every day.

36. 2460 hits on Teh Google for "Al Gore is fat".

Internet "meme".

[Gomez163]

37. Its no "All Your Base Are Belong to Us" but among us old school bloggers

its a definite in-joke, if not a meme.

[cherokeeprogressive]

38. Cool story Bruh. The kind traded among "old school bloggers" who tell "in-jokes" I guess.

So there must be what... 615 "old school bloggers" who've posted the "in-joke" Al Gore is fat um.... 4 times each.

[Gomez163]

40. Hell I used to tell it back in the day on CompuServe.

Those were the days.

[cherokeeprogressive]

42. Yup... those halcyon days of CompuServe, AOL, and old-school bloggers.

Oh yeah and Modem Butterfly.

39. Balloon-Juice has reverted back to conservative recently

No surprise really, Cole is a natural conservative who managed to snap out of it for a while but his essential conservative nature has taken over again.

I read there for nearly fifteen years, even before Cole became liberal around the time of the Terri Shiavo brouhaha it was a funny place but it's not funny any more, it's become really mean spirited and I gradually stopped going there a few months ago.

[Gomez163]

41. I havent been there in a long time. I did not know that.

[pdsimdars]

14. When you hear a great man speak, you should recognize it.

And Al Gore is one of them.

[BumRushDaShow]

22. The irony being that Al Gore was a founding member of the DLC

a/k/a the "turd way"... but all sorts of stuff like that gets ignored when crafting a DU alternate universe.

24. #OccupyDemocracy.

[hootinholler]

46. Fucking A!

I would love to see Gore as Sec of Energy with a mission.

[snagglepuss]

47. [phone]

[AtomicKitten]

48. Yes please.

[oldandhappy]

34. occupy democracy -- great phrase. I will use that!

We need to occupy democracy.
Political will is a renewable resource.
