have peculiar ideas. But the point is: Gore did not evade the draft, or wait out the war in the national guard. I remember Geurge H. making the "no new taxes" promise. He LIED. The apples never fall far from the tree. All of us tax payers are still paying for George W.'s brother in the savings and loan scandel. Gore's father was a great servant of the people and I greatly admire his mom - she went to law school (and worked her way through!) when less than 1% of women were lawyers. What an awesome role model!
