You can't deny that Gore named Founding Father Franklin, and Founding Father Washington was not among the busts on the wall sconces Gore pointed to, so you choose to make an even bigger fool of yourself by pretending that Lafayette and J P Jones are "Founding Fathers" Gore should have recognized, because YOU are too stupid to know they aren't Founding Fathers.Hey pinhead, Washington was not on any of the 4 wall sconces Gore pointed to. His bust was "on the extreme right" of the 4 wall sconces. The curator named 5 (FIVE) busts, Franklin on the left, then Lafayette, J P Jones, and Adams and put Washington to the "extreme right" of the other 4, which would have put the bust of Washington in another part of the Tea Room to the right of the 4 wall sconces.I'll bet the Shrub could've picked GEROGE FRIGGIN' WASHINGTON out of a lineup of busts....pinhead.
Jefferson's Monticello: Panorama of Tea Room (and Dining Room)
Here's is your MessiahRushie's version of what happened. Gore never pointed to Washington and named the bust of Franklin himself, and Clinton's mind was not read by the pathological liar.

RUSH: ... It's kind of like the moment when Al Gore walked into Thomas Jefferson's place (Video at- http://mfile.akamai.com/5020/wmv/ru....com/5020/tv_archives/111501_monticello_q.asx ). Monticello. There were all these busts up there. Gore is out there walking around with Clinton with the curator of the place, and Gore is looking thoughtfully, like he's in this great vast museum, and he has one hand on his (imitating for Ditto-camers) like this and his finger is on his chin, and he points to, "Who is that?" and the curator says, "That's George Washington." "Who is that?" "That's Benjamin Franklin." In fact, we have that sound bite from our archives. Here's how that went.
GORE: Who are these people?
CURATOR: This is George Washington on the extreme right, and [1] Benjamin Franklin on the left, and then we have [2] Lafayette and [3] John Paul Jones. And [4] John Adams... (unintelligible) Well, let's head briefly into the guest bedroom.
RUSH: Now, you should have seen Clinton when Gore asked the question. The beauty is the video. Clinton just kind of turns away, "Oh, my. I can't believe he asked that." Because even Clinton knew who George Washington was. So, I mean, these are the smartest people in the world, all right.
The unintentional humor here, yours, is that you don't realize how bizarre that dialog is...
If I, or anyone else on the board, outside of you, WearinTheLipstick, were to come face to face with the figurines of our Founders, we wouldn't feel the need to identify same, but would, rather, assume that eveyone with an education knew who they were- each and every one.
But if you and Al walked into a parking lot, you guys would feel the need to identify several..."chevy"..."ford"..."I even know toyota!"
Hey, is this you, or Al?
