Al Gore Says Obama Sucked At The Debate Because Of The High Altitude In Denver
(Newser) – You know you did terrible in a debate when your defenders start playing the … altitude card? From Al Gore on Current TV, floating a theory last night on President Obama’s lackluster performance, as per Mediaite:
- “I’m going to say something controversial here. Obama arrived in Denver at 2pm today—just a few hours before the debate started. Romney did his debate prep in Denver. When you go to 5,000 feet, and you only have a few hours to adjust—I don’t know …”
Cue the global warming jokes, like this one at the Stir.
First of all let me just say, I don’t know shit about politics. I don’t vote. I think when the economy is in good shape everyone is happy and when its not, everyone is pissed off. No matter who is president. That being said even I could tell last night Obama sucked. I thought he was supposed to bring the heat when it comes to talking and speeches and instead he just stumbled and mumbled the whole time. Looked like he was sexting Michelle underneath his podium all night. But I guess what Al Gore is saying here is that this motherfucker O-Bomb couldn’t breathe! How can you expect someone to debate when they can’t even breathe?? Chinese riddle for you, Rhonda.
Have you ever been involved in something you know you have absolutely no business doing? I felt like that the whole time I was an accountant. I was always looking around laughing to myself like “what the fuck am I doing here?” Kept looking at other people around me studying for CFAs and CPAs and Series this and Series that, the whole time I was sitting there blogging secretly like “How am I still here?” I think thats Al Gore and his place in politics right now. Dude just wants to talk about the weather and talk about the glory days when he was second banana to a dude getting his asshole licked by interns. Just no clue what hes really doing but people keep asking him questions and interviewing him and shit so he runs with it. “Al why do you think Obama struggled in the debate?” “Uhhh. Err. He couldn’t breath. Because we’re in the mountains. Denver is closer to Space. Yea thats why. Like that dude on the Steelers who can never fly there anymore to play the Broncos. Yea. Altitude and shit.”
hm you don’t vote, figures. your one of the reasons why this country sucks loser
Andee it’s his choice not to vote like its your choice to be
A fucktard. The only thing I hate more than ultra I know everything about politics people are people who bash people for not voting
Chinese riddle for you… solid chappelle reference

Brave men fought and died to fight tyranny and establish a democracy. Not voting is an embarrassment.
Denver fucking sucks. When I was there I kept getting nosebleeds for no reason because of the altitude, still Obama blew it last night.
if you can’t get off your ass and vote you are a complete jack off. same goes for you wilbur. put the bong down for 10 minutes and act like a grown up and respect your country and those that have died defending it. and neil sucks.
Billybaroo how is it an embarrassment he’s free to not vote. He doesn’t care and doesn’t see either candidate as a
Better choice. Voting for a 3rd party is essentially not
Voting
great, now we gotta give Gore another fucking Nobel prize
@andeee. I would suspect your passion for this country triggers the emotion within you to cast stones on those who do not vote. However, I am 100% certain that If you, andeee, are a supporter of party “A,” and party “B” decided not to vote at all on November 6th, you would declare that day the greatest day in the history of mankind and forget all about that whole “you don’t vote, you suck” mentality.
Lay off Obama, he was too busy running this country (into the ground) to prepare for the debate.
I think Billybaroo meant to say: to not vote is an insult. Furthermore, to not care is an even bigger insult and embarrassment. These people…what a damn shame.
He’s definitely free to not vote, I agree with that. It’s just sad that some people make that choice. To your point on not thinking either candidate is fit to run the country, you can still make a distinction between the two candidates’ policies and vote based on what direction you want your country to go in. I thought Obama and McCain were both incompetent in 2008, but I voted for McCain because I didn’t want a destroyer of liberty to run our country.
MANBEARPIG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama was too busy tracking down manbearpig.
It had nothing to do with the altitude…It was manbearpig. Half man, half bear, half pig. I’m ceareal.
If you comment seriously about politics on a Barstool Sports post, you aren’t fit to vote
The “not voting is an embarrassment” argument is so weak. If you think both candidates are full of shit and both are going to ruin the country in different ways then why dignify either with a vote? Some may think going and voting is just showing you validate a rigged system you don’t care to support. That’s not to say there’s people who don’t vote out of laziness despite leaning toward a candidate/party; but I don’t see how its dishonorable to not vote based on a thought-out decision that you don’t want to add a tally to either ticket.
Personally, I’m voting for the Turd Sandwich.
nah its just being lazy, get off your ass.
@kentucky fried fagget – why post a blog about politics if you don’t want people talking about it? makes a ton of sense
none of your votes matter, your vote carries the same weight as any of the million inbred rednecks in this country. fuck jury duty and fuck voting.

if you don’t vote you can’t bitch.
i respect somebody who knows nothing about politics but somebody who is to lazy to go do it is not respecting the country or themselves.
It amazes me that people actually take him seriously.
Stop it you guys. He’s super cereal
he’s going to sic the manbearpig on you guys if you don’t start being cereal about altitude
@andeee at least he doesn’t vote blindly like the rest of the country’s youth. Obama said this and didn’t do that blah fucking blah blow my damn head off. Kids talking politics makes me fucking sick.
Don’t Kenyans have an advantage in high altitudes? Pretty sure that’s why they win every marathon. Should have helped him, not hurt him.
