Gore: Bush is 'renegade right-wing extremist' : Mail & Guardian Online
Gore: Bush is 'renegade right-wing extremist' : Mail & Guardian Online: <--Link "Al Gore has made his sharpest attack yet on the George Bush presidency, describing the current US administration as 'a renegade band of right-wing extremists'.
In an interview with The Guardian on Wednesday, the former vice-president calls himself a 'recovering politician' but launches into the political fray more explicitly than he has previously done during his high-profile campaigning on the threat of global warming.
Denying that his politics have shifted to the left since he lost the court battle for the 2000 election, Gore says: 'If you have a renegade band of right-wing extremists who get hold of power, the whole thing goes to the right.'
But he claims he does not 'expect to be a candidate' for president again, while refusing explicitly to rule out another run. Asked if any event could change his mind, he says: 'Not that I can see.'"
