The Racemonger

Gore at his worst

AL Gore’s mean streak is legendary—and it is never more in evidence than when the subject is race. He has called opponents of racial preferences (and this is just for starters) “hypocrites” and “modern apostles of apathy,” who “call for the end of policies to promote equal opportunity.” He claims that those who believe in color-blind justice “use their color blind the way duck hunters use their duck blind.” Those who disagree with him on racial preferences and set-asides are not merely wrong—they are evil.
