Al Gore: Out There Getting It Done

Did you hear the story about Gore chartering a private jet, flying to New orleans and personally assisting in the evacuation of 140 people?

No?

That's because he refused to take credit for it. Oh, for a thousand more politicians with that sort of integrity.

Man, I wish I had a time machine so I could go back to November 2000 and stuff a few Florida ballot boxes.

Update: Saheli directs us to this TPM Cafe account of the story and this NYT article mentions the flight in passing.
