Al Gore’s E-Mails.
Unless you have been living in a cave, you know that former Vice President Al Gore won an Academy Award for his “documentary†concerning global warming. As you might imagine, Mr. Gore received numerous congratulatory e-mails and a few not so congratulatory ones.
PRS Operatives have obtained copies of several of those e-mails, which appear below.
Dear Al,
So now you’re Mr. Big Shot Academy Award winner?
Mazel Tov, NOT!!
As far as I’m concerned, you’re still a backstabbing swine.
Jerk.
Very truly yours,
Joe Lieberman
Dear Mr. Gore:
I received your recent letter in which you demanded a refund of the fee you paid for our Dale Carnegie course entitled “Developing an Engaging Personalityâ€. You claim that you are entitled to a refund because you failed to successfully complete the course.
As our guaranty plainly states, if you fail to successfully complete the course, at your option, you may have a refund, or you can re-take the course at no charge. You opted to re-take the course, and, in fact, you have re-taken the course six times, and you failed each time.
Mr. Gore, enough is enough.
Sincerely,
J. William Attridge
President, Dale Carnegie, Inc.
P.S. Oh, congratulations on your award. You must have been a real live wire at those Hollywood parties.
Dear Mr. Gore:
We at the Mayo Clinic have received your inquiry concerning elective surgery.
I regret to inform you that medical science has yet to develop a surgical procedure for a personality transplant.
Have you considered a Dale Carnegie course?
Yours truly,
George A. Sommers, M.D.
Chief Medical Administrator
The Mayo Clinic
Dear Al:
Now that you’re swimming in cash, do you think you might finally settle up on the $275 thousand still outstanding for the legal fees you owe me for maintaining a straight face while I tried to sell that steaming batch of bullshit to the courts in 2000?
THIS IS YOUR FINAL NOTICE.
If I do not received payment in full within ten (10) days, I shall obtain a judgment against you in that amount and attach your private jet and SUVs.
Don’t mess with me, Al.
David Boise, Esq.
Dear Al,
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Your documentary was AWESOME!!!
I really like your style and the care you took in doing the necessary research. How about we collaborate on a documentary? It would be so AWESOME. I’m thinking of doing a film that will offer indisputable proof that the Bush family is comprised of aliens from a fascist planet in another galaxy. Sweet, no?
Call me when you get a chance. We can do dinner.
From one Oscar winner to another,
Michael Moore
Dear Al:
Any chance I could get a part in your next movie?
I could play Bill Clinton.
Very truly yours,
Charles Manson

Dear Al, Pal o’ Mine:
Got any tips for getting into the movie business?
I’m planning for my future.
Your pal,
John Kerry
Dear Asshole:
Now that you’re getting all this ink, don’t even THINK about telling your new Hollywood Best Pals to support anyone but me in 2008. Just so we’re clear, if you pull that shit, I’ll squash you like the pus sack you are. Tipper too.
Creep.
Hillary Clinton
Great job Jim! Loved them all but especially the Dale Carnegie, Mayo Clinic and Hillary Clinton e-mails.

you buried the lead! Turns out le Maison d’ Gore uses more power in one day that most homes use in a week.
Funny stuff.

Oh and did you catch the part where Leo was telling us that Al has been fighting global warming for the last 30 years? Here’s the email from Vint Cerf:
Dear Al,
You were a busy guy 30 years ago, fighting global warming when everyone else was fighting global cooling. Don’t even THINK of making a movie about inventing the internet (which it seems you claim you were doing at about that same time).
Any movie about the internet with you as the creator will cause each computer you touch to mysteriously crash. I can find you where ever you try to hide online.
Sincerely,
One of the guys who really did invent the internet

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
“I’ll squash you like the pus sack you are. Tipper too.”
RICH! Freakin’ RICH!
Thanks, Jimbo! Bless you for haulin’ your sick body out of bed and making us laugh! Didn’t you just KNOW that those narcissistic hollyweird clowns were going to give Al Gore, the whore, an “Oscar”. Absolutely no longer any credibility – these so-called “award” shows! Not one shred of credibility! Bob Hope must be rolling in his grave! What a bunch of nincompoops! Al Gore…an OSCAR! For Pete’s friggin’ sake! Snark!

Free passes were given out to men and women in uniform and ten tiers of seats rose up at the rear of the stage for the soldiers and sailors invited to attend the show. Their arrival got the most sustained applause of the night.
And contrary to the inconvenient truth of last night’s energy sucking extravaganza… because of war restrictions that year, only one spotlight was used outside Grauman’s Theatre. In addition, no parking service was provided which meant that guests were forced to *gasp* fend for themselves.
No War for Oil
Yannow, all snarking aside, it really does sadden me to see just how far Hollywood has fallen. I’m seriously beginning to wonder if our industry can ever again rise to the standards of ethics and brilliance it once possessed.
Is the Golden Age merely a dream remembered?
At this point, I’m afraid the answer is yes.
