Politico is just breaking the news of Al and Tipper Gore's separation/divorce:
Al and Tipper Gore, whose playful romance enlivened Washington and the campaign trail for a quarter century, have decided to separate after 40 years of marriage, the couple told friends Tuesday.
In an “Email from Al and Tipper Gore,” the couple said: “We are announcing today that after a great deal of thought and discussion, we have decided to separate.
“This is very much a mutual and mutually supportive decision that we have made together following a process of long and careful consideration. We ask for respect for our privacy and that of our family, and we do not intend to comment further.”
The e-mail was obtained by POLITICO and confirmed by Kalee Kreider of the office of Al and Tipper Gore. Kreider said there would be no further comment.
Via Memeorandum.
UPDATED: Perhaps Al Gore and Tipper Gore's divorce will shed some public light on Al Gore's 'laughing all the way to the bank' business bonanza of eco-alarmism. This article at Daily Finance highlights how Al Gore was to become the world's first 'carbon billionaire.'
Satirical but close to the truth for Al Gore's eco-hypocrisy, the Gore Mansion:
Will this go to Tipper or to Al? The actual Gore, Tennessee mansion:
Also, Doug Ross gives us a glimpse into the life of royalty via. public hysteria fleecing. Al Gore's Montecito, California, $9 million carbon footprint stomping mansion:
Pictures into the world of the liberal oligarchical ruling class. The hypocrisy of Al Gore's lifestyle is the equivalent of a minister owning a chain of strip clubs.
Can you say undisclosed sum
Gosh! And here I thought "Love Story" was based on Tipper and Al!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what else the Goracle might have told us that was less than truthful?
Maybe that's why he bought the mega mansion in California recently? Bigger chick magnet!
ReplyDeletePerhaps Tipper will come out with a tell all book exposing the seedy side of Al and the green movement. A book that will prove that movement is, in this case, an appropriate term. Or she might expose him as the Green Manalishi.
ReplyDeleteA tell all book by Tipper could be enlightening?
ReplyDeleteAgain, I expect she'll get a sizable allowance tied to a non-disclosure agreement. (Which could apply to book deals as well.)
Proof - I guess, the 'pursuit of profit' exceeds 40 years of 'love' ten fold? Oligarchical elitism knows no bounds....
ReplyDeleteDepends. Not to sound sexist, but I will, if she sees his profit potential exceed what her agreement will provide for herself, then she won't sign on. She knows him better than any of us. Give a woman the choice of Tom Selleck or a fat old banker, they'll settle for the banker every time, it just might take a little time.
ReplyDeleteRip - I'm not so sure, Tom Selleck is awfully old these days!
ReplyDeleteGreat point....
I think she'll sign on. It's going to be an awfully fat payout, but I think enough to buy her silence.
ReplyDeleteParticularly if it allows her to save a little face.
hummmmmm, they just bought a new mansion together last month and this month they decide to divorce??The Justice department may have caught on to this cap and trade crap and decided to do a little investigation.....and Tipper decided to bail....
ReplyDeleteanonymous: In light of this recent revelation, I'm inclined to think that, knowing it was going to be splitsville, Al bought the mansion on the coast so Tipper can keep the house and he can have some batchelor digs to entertain his Hollywood friends (and the future ex-Mrs. Gore!)
