Angry Al Gore


For quite some time now it has been suggested that Al Gore has gone a little whacky. His observations that Stephen Harper's election was a product of oil companies showed that he doesn't have a clue about Canada or the US. In his latest speech, in front of a mostly Saudi audience, he claimed that the US government has committed "terrible abuses" against Arabs since 9/11. Let's ignore the fact that the majority of 9/11 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia. He says that Arabs have "been rounded up" and "held in conditions that were just unforgivable." What kind of conditions you ask? Who knows, he wouldn't give details in his speech. Later, when asked to comment on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, he responded "We can't solve that long conflict in exchanges here". Way to take a stand Al.
