When you're going through an emotional experience and you're focussed completely on what's happening, you can't even spare any attention that the camera's there.
Al Gore
Image
John McCain is now openly endorsing the policies of the Bush-Cheney White House and promising to actually continue the same policies over again? Hey, I believe in recycling but that's ridiculous.
