Another Al Gore hit piece:

Environmentalist Gore allowed zinc mine

CARTHAGE, Tenn. — Al Gore has profited from zinc mining that has released millions of pounds of potentially toxic substances near his farmstead, but there is no evidence the mine has caused serious damage to the environment in the area or threatened the health of his neighbors.

3. Who's attacking anyone?

Secondly, I spend but a few hours a week here, so I apologize if I'm rehashing a topic that has been discussed already.

How about a link to the previous discussion, because when I searched the GD forum, nothing came up in the search that I executed, thanks!

4. Hey instead of taking him to task for posting it again...

...which, by the way, I missed the first one too, Why don't you all go here http://forums.tennessean.com/viewtopic.php?t=31246 and take up the fight in the forum. That forum has a lot of people blasting Gore every time the Tennessean runs a story on him be it favorable or unfavorable. Go there and show your support for Gore and let the detractors know that they are in the minority.
