Follow any politician long enough and you'll plenty of similar photo-ops. Making this photo and speech for more than it was is a classic propaganda technique. How about showing the entire video to get the whole story?

Fahrenheit 9/11 ends with George Bush muddling his "fool me once" line. In the scene, Bush looks like a much bigger idiot than your photo makes of Gore. In both cases, its propaganda.

I enjoyed Fahrenheit 9/11 and I think everyone should go see it and make up their own minds about it. But I'm not gullible enough to dismiss the fact that its propaganda, little different than your blogsofwar photo.

Beside Fahrenheit 9/11, I'd recommend renting the "Triplettes of Bellville" DVD. Great animation and music. And, no politics whatsoever. You'll have to excuse the fact that its French.
