    Do you even read what you write? If he points and says "Franklin" when Franklin's bust isn't there, how does that make him look good? You keep making him look like the clod in Clinton's thought bubble. Keep up the good work.

    Maybe you should follow your own advice!!!
    It was the bust of WASHINGTON that was NEVER visible, the bust of Franklin was ALWAYS visible, and named by Gore himself.
    If anyone is a "clod" it is those stupid enough to STILL believe your MessiahRushie after watching the video!

    Ah, sorry, but I have a really good set of speakers in a quiet environment and I do not hear "Franklin" spoken by anyone. It is also obvious that Gore points to the extreme right where the curator says the bust of Washington is. The curator then goes on to name the remaining three busts as Lafayette, John Paul Jones, and John Adams; no mention of Franklin. You are looking a bit silly here.

    Oh, "MessiahRushie"? Clever, but meaningless. You Libs seem to be obsessed with foul, insulting, and strange labels. Rush is not our Messiah. He understands the important role that this country has played in history, politics, and the problems this country faces. He analyzes current events and gives his opinion on them. I, and many others, find his analysis to be very comparable to our opinions and life experiences. And, no, I don't always agree with him. Your problem is that you never agree with him. And, I do, sometimes agree with Rachel Maddow, at least until she starts talking about Trump; she's actually quite intelligent until she gets to certain subjects where her glands seem to bulldoze her brains.

    Again you can't hear Gore name the Bust of Franklin because you are so thoroughly brainwashed by your MessiahRushie that even repeated listenings cannot deprogram you. You are apparently so deaf that you didn't even hear the curator name Franklin. Gore says "Franklin" talking over the curator saying "Washington on the extreme." Listen again.

    Gore starts his pan asking "who are these people" on the Right, NOT the "extreme right." There are only 4 wall sconces, so Washington being on the extreme right had to be to the right of the Adams wall sconce position. Having been to Monticello I know that the Bust of Washington was displayed in a semicircular niche, to the right of the wall sconces, that used to house a heater stove in Jefferson's day, so it was much lower than the wall sconces, But the busts Gore pointed to in his pan were ALL at the same height, so you have no proof that Gore pointed to Washington and circumstantial evidence says he didn't.

    Gore ends his pan on the left AFTER asking "who are these people," then starts to lower his arm but almost immediately raises it and re-points to the left flank bust saying one word, "Franklin." Gore does not raise his arm as high as when he panned, but just clears his right shoulder with his pointing FINGER when he re-points. When he was panning, the view of his right shoulder was blocked by Tipper's head, but for some unknown reason she turns her head down and to the left opening up our view of Gore's right shoulder just in time to see him re-point to and name the left flank bust of Franklin.

    Now man up and admit your MessiahRushie lied to you and you swallowed it whole.

    Okay, I put my wife on it; she has even better hearing than I do. She says the curator does say "Franklin." However, the problem of asking who George Washington was still stands. Maybe Gore did make a simple mistake, but Dan Quayle did not make a mistake, and he was ridiculed. So, man up and suffer. Gore is a MessiahIdiot of the Left and nothing is going to change that.

    Again Gore only pointed to the very high wall sconces when he asked "who are these people" and you can easily tell that by the fact that his arm was the SAME height for the entire pan. The bust of Washington was much lower in a little semicircular niche where a heating stove used to be in Jefferson's day. That is why the curator said "extreme right" so Gore would know it was beyond where he pointed. If you click on the interactive link and turn it to the right you will see the niche and how much lower the base the bust sat on is.

    Not only your MessiahRushie lied to you, but nearly every single Conservative publication and pundit told the same lie using it as an example of "Liberal media bias" because this lie was not reported as much as the truth that Quayle misspelled potato(e). Obviously they were ALL parroting the SAME erroneous script, something your MessiahRushie regularly accuses the media of doing, but he uses events that actually happened which proves nothing! If a red brick house burned down and all the reporters reported the house as red brick that does not prove that the reporters are scripted as your MessiahRushie frequently claims, but if the reporters reported the house as white painted wood, then you actually have proof that they are scripted, as the Gore at Monticello lie proves. Even Reagan's favorite Mag, Human Events, is scripted!!!

    Which vice president is the king of gaffes?
    Human Events, by Graham, Tim
    The TV media have had a field day with Dan Quayle, but Al Gore has a history of silly flubs and boasts, and the networks have a history of ignoring them:
    * Jan. 17, 1993: In a tour of Monticello, Gore asked about a row of busts: "Who are these people?" The New York Times explained the curator "helpfully identified the unfamiliar faces: `This is George Washington on the extreme right,' with Benjamin Franklin close behind." TV coverage? Zero.

    Tea Room [ View Interactive Version ]
    Jefferson referred to the Tea Room as his "most honorable suite" because in it he displayed many likenesses of his friends and American heroes, including busts of Franklin, John Paul Jones, Lafayette, and Washington. The room had a reading and writing arrangement perhaps similar to the one Jefferson kept in his Cabinet. One of the coldest rooms in the house in winter, it had, at one time, a stove in the semi-circular niche in wall.

    You do tend to wander. Quayle did not misspell potatoe. He used the old spelling, and what did your ignorant Lefties do with that?. The English language does change. But, really, Gore had to be told who George Washington was, or was Rush just funnin' ya because he knows that Liberals have no sense of humor. AlGore invented the internet and can't identify George Washington. Yuk! Yuk! Yuk! What a dunce.

    So typical of the Right, when caught lying, they just keep on lying.

    Your MessiahRushie has never been right about anything. He knows his skulls of mush will never figure out what a pathological liar he is even when it is spelled out for them.

    You remind me of an exhibit they have, or had, at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago when I was a kid. They had this elevator ride downn into a simulated coal mine. It was dark; no light penetrated, just like you.

    Pure projection.
    I not only showed you that your MessiahRushie had provably lied to you, but also that every Conservative media source and pundit parroted the same lie as proof of Liberal media bias, and you STILL parroted the same lie.

    The press maintained radio silence on stories embarrassing to Gore. For example, … Al Gore couldn't pick George Washington out of a lineup. In a highly publicized stop at Monticello during Clinton's 1993 inaugural festivities, Gore pointed to carvings of Washington and Benjamin Franklin and asked the curator: 'Who are these guys?' He was surrounded by reporters and TV cameras when he said it. Only one newspaper, USA Today, reported the incident.
    Ann Coulter - Slander

    And from MRC the Right-wing's Liberal media "watchdog:"
    On ABC's This Week March 14, Bill Kristol noted Al Gore's gotten a free pass on gaffes. George Stephanopoulos protested: "It's hard to say he's gotten a pass. Every time he opens his mouth he gets popped." Not true on TV morning and evening newscasts:

    January 17, 1993: In a tour of Monticello, Gore asked about a row of busts: "Who are these people?" The New York Times explained the curator "helpfully identified the unfamiliar faces: 'This is George Washington on the extreme right and Franklin on the left...

    Okay, you don't seem to understand subtle, so I'll explain it to you. Actually, I have no idea what Gore was seeing or pointing at, and, probably, Rush didn't either. It was the point of view of the camera and the lack of clarity about what was going on that created the illusion that Gore was a dumbass. Rush used it as a joke just like Lefties used Quayle's out of date spelling to create a reason to laugh at him. Rush made a joke out of the opportunity. I understood it to be a joke, Rush's listeners understood it to be a joke, but people like you are still looking for Rushie boggymen under your bed. The funny part is not the Gore video, it's the way Liberals get their shorts in a bunch. Your high blood pressure reaction to it has been very amusing. Keep up the good work.

    Your MessiahRushie was never joking even once over the twenty years he kept repeating the lie. None of the Right-wing media and pundits were joking whenever they used the lie to bash the "Liberal" media.
    And it wasn't the camera angle but it was the deliberate editing of the video that created the Limbaugh Lie, but at least you now admit the Limbaugh Lie was an "illusion," so that is progress.

    Why is this veep never caught holding the hot 'potatoe'?

    It was a scene that would become a favorite among aficionados of Al Gore's frequent but often under-reported verbal bloopers. On Sunday, January 17, 1993, just days before the
    Clinton/Gore inauguration, the vice president- elect was touring Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's home outside Charlottesville, Virginia. The visit was an important photo-op; Gore and Bill Clinton were about to start their showy retracing of the trip Jefferson took to Washington for his own inaugural in 1801.
    Guided by Daniel Jordan, executive director of Monticello, Gore came upon a row of white marble busts. "Who are these people?" he asked. A little taken aback, Jordan hesitated and quietly answered. That's George Washington on the right, he said. And that's Benjamin Franklin. And Jefferson, too.
    Gore had asked an almost breathtakingly stupid question, the kind that when uttered in public can result in a barrage of mocking reports in the press. But the soon-to-be vice president's comments didn't attract much coverage.

    A hint comes from an Ann Coulter column I read not too long ago, in which she points out a mystery. VP Dan Quayle was the butt of countless jokes based on a seemingly endless lists of malaprops and verbal bloopers. Yet, in an era when the President and Vice President are stalked by flocks of cameramen and film crews seemingly everywhere save the bedroom and the bathroom, there exists no film footage of the gaffes. Do you remember actually seeing any of these Quayle moments? I'll bet you don't -- you just took the reporters' word for it. (There is actual footage of Al Gore, then-Vice President of the United States of America, being unable to identify busts of the Founding Fathers at Monticello, but almost the only place you can see it is at Rush Limbaugh's website. Yet Gore is the "Goracle".)

    S-o-o-o, now you are saying that other people saw the same thing that Rush saw, and they are confirming that Gore is a dumbass?

    I am confirming that they are ALL parroting the same erroneous script. Notice how many included the bust of Jefferson when there was NO bust of Jefferson. They are all parroting each other without even watching the video, obviously!!!

    A couple things.

    Even Donald Trump and Rush Limbaugh though Hillary was going to win. Rush didn't know any better than anyone else. He just doesn't know what the word hypocrisy means.

    As for democrats not being able to win elections, they are winning elections. So that's a falsehood. This happens every time the White House changes parties. Someone talks about how the other party is dead and gone. Remember when Obama was elected and then re-elected and the GOP had a huge Hispanic voter problem?

    Hillary didn't court blue collar workers. Other democrats do and have better than Trump. See Joe Biden as one major, high profile example among others of lessor profiles. What's ironic is that those blue collar workers voted against their interests because the GOP has zero interest in doing anything for them. Most of those blue collar workers belong to a Union and WANT to because they know it benefits them. I know, I work in an industry with union workers and none of them are voting them out. Many swing voters took a chance on Trump and many are feeling burned. This gibberish here is nothing but Rush trying to make those who voted for Trump but are unsure feel OK with it. It's unconvincing because Rush's act is tired and stale.

    the tides swing back and forth, wasn't Rush arrested for Drugs? I don't think he is your best source of predictions.....

    all one has to do is look at voter turnout to see why trump won

    Dems did not get out to vote as they thought Trump did not stand a chance

    even so, more American voters voted for Clinton then Trump, Trump only won through affirmative action

    Since 2008, Democrats have lost the House, the Senate and the Presidency. Democrats have lost, net, over a thousand seats. The grand total: a net loss of 1,042 state and federal Democratic posts, including congressional and state legislative seats, governorships and the presidency.

    Democrat U.S. Senate seats fell from 60 to 46. Their share of the House plummeted from 256 seats to 194. Democrat governerships slipped from 28 to 16.

    958 state legislative seats lost for Democrats.

    No Party in our lifetimes has ever faced this much carnage in a 7 year period.
