Al Gore Channels Andrew Jackson

Old Hickory's spirit is apparently alive and kicking in Tennessee. He probably feels a lot of kinship with Al Gore, having won the 1824 election and seeing it stolen from him afterward.

Gore isn't very happy with the current occupant of the White House (my emphasis):
"He betrayed this country!" Mr. Gore shouted into the microphone at a rally of Tennessee Democrats here in a stuffy hotel ballroom. "He played on our fears. He took America on an ill-conceived foreign adventure dangerous to our troops, an adventure preordained and planned before 9/11 ever took place."
"He betrayed this country!"? Did the elected President just say that George W. "betrayed this country"?

The Big Pundits have never liked Al Gore. They'll be drooling mad over that one!

It goes without saying how the Freepers will react.
