Al Gore's Disgrace-Updated
From Investor's Business Daily:
What possesses a former vice president of the U.S. to travel to the birthplace of Islamist terrorism and denounce his country? Only a special breed of demons, apparently, can explain Al Gore.
The chief demon, of course, surely must be Gore's continuing quest for the presidency. Embittered he may well be by his loss of the highest office six years ago. But showing such supreme disloyalty to his country, as he did in Saudi Arabia on Sunday, cannot be condoned as an honorable means of pursuing the prize once more.
...his calculated comments came at the height of the cartoon intifada, much of it stoked by Saudi-controlled media.
That uprising, aimed at freedom and democracy, indeed at Western civilization itself, just last week left many non-Arabs dead, European diplomatic quarters torched and journalists' lives threatened. Unconscionably, Gore poured gasoline over the global flames.
The Angry Left gets angrier, it seems.

Update-Remember yesterday where I said, Gore went to Saudi with his handout? Well, today I read this from NewsMax: Al Gore Event Funded by Bin Laden's Family
