The Bottom Line (The Very Bottom)

"Gore 'has become a laughingstock. The glaciers have not melted. If his advice he gives to Apple is as faulty as his views on the environment then he doesn't need to be re-elected.'"

-- Erica Ogg, quoting "Sheldon" ("a longtime and well-known Apple shareholder") as he urged Apple Computer against Al Gore's re-election to the board of directors - for reasons that are becoming obvious to everyone - and showing, even in the wooly-headed Bay Area, common sense is making a comeback, as reported by CNET.

UPDATE: The University of Tennessee is discussing giving Gore an honorary degree, with it's board vice chairman, Jim Murphy, saying:

"This probably would be the the most controversial honorary degree awarded so far, and it might not be the most controversial honorary degree we'll see. At the end of the day, it's all about is this going to help the university or is it going to hurt the university?"

Good question. Let's try to sort that one out. Giving an honorary degree to "a laughingstock" who tried to snooker his own country into blowing a trillion dollars on nothing, relinquishing it's sovereignty to the bozos at the U.N., and telling us a lie that the non-existent "science is settled" (and anyone who used common sense and didn't go along was the same as a Holocaust denier)?

Oh, I'm sure, backing all that is gonna help your school's image a hella lot,...
