[bteague2]

WTF? He shouldn't get a statue on the state capital grounds. Is this going to be stimulus package funded?

Uhh... Return it to Mordor?

[Guest tnmale46]

maybe if they use al himself for the statue

[Guest Jcochran88]

You have got to be kidding! They thank that all these gun bills are a waste of time what about this?

[Fallguy]

Guess the pigeons need a new place to

[Guest SUNTZU]

I think this is a good idea. Lets make it out of freshly clubbed baby seals, since they're running outta room up there, anyhow.

It might not just be for pigeons. I make it down that way occasionally. Why do they get to have all the fun? Just kidding. I'm not going to on the Gore statue. That would be a waste of perfectly good .

Maybe this will happen after a few years.

If it goes up, it can come down, via a crane job. Iraq revisited, I'd take my shoe off (the nasty one) and beat upon the head vigorously

Isn't this a refreshing bit of news. Big Al wins the prize for global warming, which does not exist anyway as they now refer to it as climate change or the climate crisis. And the whole climate thing is BS anyway.

Just freaking outstanding. Can I be first in line to piss on it when it is in place, or at least fart in its general direction.

This makes me SO proud to be a Tennessean.

[Guest mustangdave]

I say...lets erect this joke of a statue...then stage a Paint Ball Tournement around it and seriously "deface" it.

[Luckyforward]

FYI - if the statue is approved by the state, it must be funded by private money, not state funds.

What's wrong with you people? The man invented the internet.

Doesn't that at least deserve a bobble-head or little action figure?

Gee . . . I forgot that! If not for old Al, we wouldn't be here . . .

[Guest SUNTZU]

I hope its up by late Fall. I want to get a picture of it covered in snow next Winter.

[Guest FroggyOne2]

At least the pigeons will have a new place to roost!

[Guest pjblurton]

I FOUND THE PROTOTYPE!!!

[Guest nj.piney]

it would be the first usefull thing he ever did at the capitol .

He invented global warming too, now if he'll just shut up, the ice age will return

Why it does exist too didn't you know? Every time his pie hole opens its there

I'll be right behind you with a very large soda and be ready to go after your done, buddy!

[Guest Swamprunner]

Years ago, when 'ol Al was the VP, there used to be the signs stating "Welcome to Tennessee, Home of Al Gore. Well, I just picked my brother up from the airport in Hot'lanta, and we were coming back into TN and he started laughing like a hyenna after he saw the sign along highway 411 with paint all over it. Evidently, "you folks don't like 'em any more than we do in Colorado, either.

Go ahead and make the statue. It will be a monument for all of the friggin' kool aid drinkers.

That won't be a problem. Gore can fund it with is own money from his firm that sells energy credits based on your carbon foot print. tree huggers buy credits to make themselves feel good about their large SUV's
