All of the above were originally attributed to Dan Quayle, and were false then as well.

Not say that Gore and Quayle aren't poltroons, of course.

Coinneach-

I thought I recognized those from a Dan Quayle quote page: http://www.rinkworks.com/said/danquayle.shtml

Quayle said most, if not all, of those. The only false statement I recall being attributed to him was the thing about wishing he had studied Latin, so he could converse with the people in Latin America.

From an article in today's World Net Daily:

"I think the reason [gas prices have risen] is because we more or less asked the organization of petroleum producing countries to raise oil prices in helping Russia develop its economy."-- Vice President Al Gore

I'm less interested in the stupidities he might or might not have said, compared to the contempt for all us citizens in what he did say...
