Elizabeth Keadle, Al Gore's New Girlfriend, A Democratic Donor Devoted To Environmental Causes

Elizabeth Keadle Al Gore

Two years after his divorce from Tipper, Al Gore is re-entering the dating world.

Gore's new girlfriend, Elizabeth Keadle, is a Democratic donor with a background in science, the Washington Post reports. She's in her 50s and reportedly shares Gore's passion for environmental causes.

ABC News reports Keadle -- along with her ex-husband Lyle Turner -- was an early investor in what eventually became CurrentTV, a cable channel led by Gore. Keadle has also backed a number of Democratic candidates -- HuffPost's Fundrace reports Keadle has donated $5,000 to different candidates this year.

In June 2010, Gore and his ex-wife Tipper made "a mutual and mutually supportive decision" to split up after more than 40 years of marriage. The couple famously locked lips at the 2000 Democratic National Convention in a move the New York Times called an effort to "change [Gore's] robotic image."

People worry about LGBT marriage when they should be more concerned with shacking up and divorce. But lo, the political parties have the electorate whipped chained into following the non-issues again.

lmao he spent 5 months in vietnam as a journalist and opted for an early out and was granted it.

According to Michael O'Hara, Gore's closest army buddy, "We never pulled guard duty in the field because we weren't part of those units. The only place we stood guard was back at Bien Hoa," the secure base where Gore lived. "It was the equivalent of being a school crossing guard. I know guys that didn't even take their rifles with them." (The National Review, November, 1999) Other soldiers with long experience in Vietnam said that Gore was treated differently from his fellow enlistees. H. Alan Leo, a photographer in the press brigade office where Gore worked as a reporter, said soldiers were ordered to serve as Gore's bodyguards, to keep him out of harm's way. "It blew me away," Leo said. "I was to make sure he didn't get into a situation he could not get out of. They didn't want him to get into trouble. So we went into the field after the fact [after combat actions], and that limited his exposure to any hazards." (Los Angeles Times 10/15/99) Leo described his half-dozen or so trips into the field with Gore as situations where "I could have worn a tuxedo." (Newsweek, 12/6/99) Gore's story changed to the more "accurate" version in his October 1999 interview with Talk magazine, though he wasn't asked why the story has now changed.

Will they sing that union work song that his momma sang to him when he was a baby at the wedding. I wonder how many carb credits they will receive as wedding gifts. His home costs 2-3 per month
