Man...I didn't watch the Grammys, but this really is almost hypocritical of Gore. I will never forget, when in college, the late, great Frank Zappa came to my town to speak on the issue of music and censorship. When he opened the floor to questions, I was fortunate to be able to ask him why Mr. Gore sat on the committee when his wife was the director of the PMRC. I felt it was a significant conflict of interest, and that it was questionable at best that Gore was involved. Mr. Zappa could only answer that he had been asking the same question of the Senate Committee the entirety of the meetings, and never was able to receive a satisfactory answer.
This very thing is what I remembered when Gore was running for president. I could't stand Bush, and would rather shoot novacaine into my own eyeball than vote for him. But, I also couldn't get the hypocracy of Gore out of my head, and I kept wondering how I could be assured he wouldn't act in such a manner again. I finally sucked it up, and voted Nader...
