Some years ago a person I trust told me he knew a person who worked on Capitol Hill, and that that person said that Al Gore was the only politician there who was faithful to his wife.
Yep. Gore and Carter seemed to be the two least favorites of the long time Secret Service Agents.
And this means Bill Clinton’s marriage has outlasted Al Gore’s.:eek::eek::eek::eek:
Or, what **Sir T-Cups **said.
Washington Post story. They sent out an email announcement, because of course they wanted everyone to know.
Could I care less?
Let me think about this…
No.
I guess that means that global warming is false.
But I have to ask… what kind of a name is “Tipper”?
Her birth name was Mary Elizabeth Aitcheson. She was called Tipper after an aunt with Parkinson’s (I’m guessing, can’t really prove it). Anyway, Roy Rogers had already copyrighted Trigger.
They just “celebrated” their 40th anniversary 2 weeks ago. I wonder if there was a party. If I gave a gift then man I’d be pissed.
I asked my sources and the word on the street is that Tipper’s been hanging with a pimp called Silky. And Kid Rock.
What I think interesting is that Gary Coleman was born 42 years ago and given up for adoption at birth, about the time that Al met Tipper. Two days after his death they announce their separation. Not once did either Gore ever comment upon John McCain’s alleged “black baby”. Coincidence?
I’m guessing that Al had not seen this recent study that divorce is harmful to the planet (what a hypocrit!) :
No, but Al & Tipper’s cooling will help alleviate the worst effects of global warming.

Not much news right now, but I never would have guessed this would happen. If you had asked me (and most everybody else in the world) in 1999 who would separate first, the Clintons or the Gores, Clinton probably would have won in a 90%+ landslide.
Moving thread from IMHO to MPSIMS, because love means never having to say “Sorry, wrong forum.”
In which case I’ll merge JohnT’s thread with the original. Boyo Jim’s post was also originally the OP to a separate thread.
News so nice it was posted thrice.
sorry!
Honestly, I think she caught Gore listening to bootleg rips of Prince’s Darling Nikki.
Also in contrast to the rumors of Gore being a jerk in person–in 2000, I spent 13 days on a river trip in the Grand Canyon. A couple of the guides had been on a trip the year before (I think) with the Gore family. They had nothing but the nicest things to say about them, and said they did more than their fair share of the grunt work on the trip. (All the people on the trip do stuff like loading and unloading rafts, etc., not just the paid guides.) And for what it’s worth, secret service guys and the nuclear footballcame on the trip as well.
Forgive me for my unkindness.
When I first heard the headline, the image in my head was of an inflating Al Gore moving farther apart from Tipper in the universe. She’s no Kate Moss these days either, but Al will explode soon if he has another Twinkie. Well, the kids are grown so everybody enjoy life.
It could be that there is dark energy pushing them apart. It works on stellar masses.
I’ll just leave this here, with the idle musing that perhaps Dave Barry wasn’t making it up after all. :rolleyes:
I’m reluctant to make jokes about this, but that is a funny one.
My biggest reaction is “WTF.” Mostly because of the kiss at the convention in 2000, I had them labeled as a happy couple, and i’m surprised. Would love to know the story behind it, but it’s really none of our business.
