Al Gore's 17 Lies
Carl Limbacher
Reed Irvine isn't a media watchdog -- he's the people's bulldog.
For nearly three decades he headed Accuracy in Media, exposing media
lies, cover-ups and bias.
Irvine has done the work the media won't and just published "Al Gore's 17
Lies."

The Seventeen Lies of Al Gore:
(1) His use of marijuana was "rare and infrequent."
(2) He did not know the Buddhist temple event was a fundraiser.
(3) He didnot know that fundraising calls from his office were illegal.
(4) He has always been pro-choice.
(5) He has never said anything in the campaign that he knew to be untrue.
(6) He was co-sponsor of the McCain/Feingold campaign finance reform bill
in the Senate.
(7) He took the initiative in creating the Internet. (8) He and Tipper
were models for "Love Story."
(9) He uncovered the pollution at Love Canal.
(10) His reporting for the Nashville Tennessean "got a bunch of people
indicted and sent to jail."
(11) His views on the Vietnam War were written into Hubert Humphreys
speech to the 1968 Democratic National Con-vention by a journalist who
had interviewed him.
(12) His claim that as an army reporter in Vietnam: "I pulled my turn
on the perimeter at night and walked through the elephant grass and
was fired upon."
(13) One reason he enlisted and went to Vietnam was to spare some other
family the agony of sending a son.
(14) He had been a small businessman and a homebuilder, helping develop
a subdivision on his fathers land in 1969.
(15) He is responsible for the "one-click-away" tool that helps parents
block, filter or monitor Internet content to protect their children.
(16) He was taught how to clean out hog waste, how to clear land with a
double-bladed ax and how to plow steep hillsides with a team of mules.
(17) His claim at the Des Moines Register offices in January that he
bought his own farm when he came back from Vietnam and that he has
owned and operated it for 26 years. [This is the 80 acres Armand Hammer
sold to his father on which he has collected $20,000 a year in mining
royalties since 1974.]
