Funny to me.....they are soooo jealous
Tucker was laughing about Gore being at the MTV awards, then I found this article saying about the same thing he did. He showed a clip showing that the audience was quiet, hence bored. I didn't watch them, so tell me what you think. They are scared of this guy, which makes him my guy.

1. the article
By NEKESA MUMBI MOODY - AP Music Writer

NEW YORK(AP) When a wooden politician delivers the best line of the MTV Music Video Awards, you know the thrill is gone.

So was the decadence, outrageousness and spontaneity that used to make the VMAs such a guilty pleasure.

James Blunt and Gnarls Barkley each took home two awards Thursday night. Pink's parody of bubble-headed pop tarts, "Stupid Girls," won for best pop video, Beyonce took home the best R&B video trophy for her booty-shaking "Check On It" and Fall Out Boy won the viewer's choice award for "Dance, Dance."

But nobody except a video choreographer's mother watches this show for the awards. Fans watch for the FCC-flaunting skits, nearly naked starlets, foul-mouthed speeches and those embarrassingly bad dance numbers.

They do NOT watch for lectures from former Vice President Al Gore on global warming. When does the phrase "here's a photo of a glacier melting" ever fit into an awards show?
