Al & Tipper
By Wink
News is breaking that Al and Tipper Gore are separating.
The reasons have not yet been divulged and, frankly, I hope they never are. The private lives of public figures should be private.
This is sad
It is not sad because he is a public figure.
It is not sad because he is a former Vice President who has accomplished blah-blah-blah.
It is not sad because I happen to agree with him on climate change.
It is sad because it is sad.
They seemed genuinely meant for each other.
But I can’t wait to hear the FOX take on this.
I am sure they can work some ‘global warming’ jokes into this story.
Rush? Are you kidding? This multiple-divorcee is sure to treat this with some sort of glee. To Rush, all topics are part of the political game, and the sadness of the separation will not be apparent to him. After so many divorces, he probably thinks ‘separation’ is for sissies.
Certainly he can work in some “Love Story” jokes. The fact that Al and Tipper really were the models for the “Love Story” characters never stopped Rush from telling people it was a lie. Presumably Rush has no staff, and no time to fact-check.
To Rush, there is nothing sacred except executive mega-salaries.
I promise you I would be equally saddened if George and Laura Bush were separating. They too seem like they belong together, and ‘better’ each other.
To be consistent, if George and Laura were separating or getting a divorce, I would NOT want to know why. It is none of my (or your) damned business.
Sorry. I don’t care what happens to Dick Cheney.
