Unless there is a downside -- "loser pays" -- which there is not, then it's nothing but a cheap challenge for the trial attorneys. The expensive work of *disproving* bogus claims is left to the defendants.OBloodyHellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09992539380115488567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6727975.post-3466971334300993222008-03-10T10:28:00.000+13:002008-03-10T10:28:00.000+13:00Al Gore *already* lost a hugely emotional election...Al Gore *already* lost a hugely emotional election, against a rather at-the–time uninspiring Bush Jr. despite Gore basing his ENTIRE message on his 'Earth in the Balance' book philosophy that the Sky Was Falling.

Ah, John Kerry who married a billionaire wife who sold fattening sugar sauces.<BR/><BR/>If Obama wins, which looks likely, he will remove the "race card" from the Lefist toolbox, for he has not ran on a "civil rights" agenda, but in some sense against it. He is half white, after all, even though people call him "black". Of course he has to toe the Climate Change line, or he'd be attacked by the scare–mongering media who has made half its money from stories about the End of the World.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
