last night in the Presidential debate Al Gore's words ``No controlling legal authority'' came up. What George Bush should have said is that all those words mean is, ``Catch me if you can.'' Everyone in Washington knows it is illegal to use foreign money. It is illegal to launder money. It is illegal to sell access. It is illegal to use your phones, your computers, your office, your staff, for raising funds. The Democrats have accepted millions of dollars in foreign moneys, laundered money, and turned the Lincoln bedroom and the coffee klatches into a money-making machine. Mr. Gore not only participated and planned, he was a cheerleader of this administration and their corrupt practices in the White House. That is why the American people are disappointed in Vice President Al Gore.
