...Bush tried a couple days ago - the TV set on the counter, Gore's image, the Buddhist temple, the nonsense about inventing the Internet, an annoyingly sarcastic woman's voiceover saying, there's dumb old Al reinventing himself again (yeah, right, like we wouldn't notice) - is a lame, counterproductive effort, foolishly half-hearted and barbless...
