It's been a pretty crappy month for Al Gore, what with the announcement that he was getting divorced, and that his daughter was getting a divorce, and the allegation that he was having an affair with business partner Laurie David.
Today National Enquirer reports that a a very detailed complaint exists that alleges Gore he tried to grope a massage therapist in 2006 in Portland, Oregon. The alleged victim even saved the "black slacks" that she alleges contain "evidence" of the DNA variety.
Frankly the whole thing, just like Al himself, doesn't quite measure up to Bill Clinton's dalliances.

Just when things could not ... (Below threshold)1. Posted by Stan | June 23, 2010 11:34 PM | Score: 8 (8 votes cast)
Just when things could not get any worse for the biggest snake oil salesman in the last 30 years, this muck has to hit the rotary device. One wonders how the MSM will cover this? Will they cover it up, like they did the other stuff that he did or will they finally bust the story wide open? I am betting on the former instead of the latter. Only time will tell.

Al will just comment that there is "no controlling legal authority" and the press will buy it. Did anyone, except the press, ever understand exactly why that was supposed to absolve Al from any scrutiny?

The fact that Al Gore is a low-life, sleazy huckster isn't a surprise.
The real shocker was that half the American electorate thought he was qualified to be President of the United States - without doubt including many of the same geniuses who gave us the buffoonish Barack Obama.

I've heard of blue stained dress's before but "peckered black slacks", how damn tacky and uncouth. The blithering shoddy snakeoil hucksterby should have stuck to lying and stealing instead of groping and molesting.

I campaigned for Vice President Gore when he was a senator in Tennessee. I don't think that he was a the corrupt fraud he is today. I believe that he's be around President Clinton too long.

I don't like Mr. Gore, but I don't really trust the source (National Enquirer). I believe that we should wait for more evidence. On the other hand, feminists have always said, "Women never lie about this type of things." At least they did until Mr. Clinton was president.

Al"smug"Gore went loopy when he lost the big
one in 2000. Since then, we've gotten a good
look at the man behind the mask, and it should
elate us that this smarmy twit never got the
big prize. It's comforting to know that Al
looks at Billy Jeff and wonders how THAT
reprobate still bathes in adulation.

. . . and to throw salt on Al's wounds . . .
The New Republic published an opinion piece about global warming that was written by Gore.
Then The New Republic's in-house critic Jim Manzi wrote a rebuttal to Gore's NTR opinion piece. In short, NTR fact-checked Gore, and Gore came out as the loser.
