Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart tie the knotHarrison Ford and Calista Flockhart have tied the knot after 8 years together, Flockhart's rep confirmed to CNN. The couple wed in New Mexico on Tuesday, where Ford is filming "Cowboys and Aliens," according to People. The wedding was performed by New Mexico's Governor Bill Richardson, under the legal supervision of the state's Chief Justice Charles W. Daniels. The couple's 9-year-old son, Liam - whom Flockhart adopted in 2001 - was also in attendance. Ford, 67, proposed to Flockhart, 45, on Valentine's Day in 2009. This is marriage number four for Ford, and the first for Flockhart. |

I think it is wonderful news! Both, are private people, yet they seem to really enjoy each other. I hope they have a long happy life together. He loves Liam and that matters a lot.
Who cares what other people say. Ignore them!
Calista is a yawner..he could've done better....
It was obvious from the start, she capitalized on a married man who was suffering emotionally from a painful seperation from his wife and 2 kids. In comes this young opportunist, spilling a drink on him supposedly by accident and getting him under a dizzy spell with her superficial alllie cat charms- all the while bringing in an innocent baby to boot...knowing darn well that he is a nurturing kind of guy.. Manipulation from the beginning can not make a relationship last no matter how good it seems, even if a nugget of a ring is eventually put on the finger, sooner or later the dorian gray mask to the whole situation falls off and the truth is just plain ugly. Spirituallity from the first start endures for lasting ties.
Okay look people.... She married her grandpa!!!!!... How cute is that?!?! I loved her in brothers & sisters,but I can't believe she would date someone 22 years older than her! Its grooss!! I know wat she was thinking when she said I do...she was thinking thhat she can get more money & be a trillinoaire! And she was looking at him as indianaa joness!!!!!
She married her grandpa... How cute is that?!?! I loved her in brothers & sisters,but I can't believe she would date someone 22 years older than her! Its grooss!!
How can they be proud to announce that they were married at the New Mexico governor's mansion!!! Most of us in New Mexico wish they'd taken Richardson back to Hollywood with them!
She could use a few of those pounds that John Goodman dropped
Dumped his wife for this homewrecker. whatta shame.
Congratulations. But should I care???
I figured Indy was a big boob kinda guy, guess not.
Well. Thats nice. I care just enough to post this comment, but not quite enough to bother completing this sentenc....
good for them. I like them both.
Congratulations! I don't know why people hate the age difference – my husband is 20 years older than I and we've been happily married close to two decades now. The only thing to regret is not having more time together, but you can sure make the most of what you've got, which is more than the divorcing hordes seem to appreciate!
She looks likes a fast ship...I wonder if she can outrun a Star Destroyer??? Does Chewie get to ride on the Millenium Flockhart as well? Everyone post videos of your best Chewie Roar!!!

As W would have said. I miss-understimated Harrison Ford.
Guess they needed to get around to it before he's dead.
Bad choice! She should've married Roman Polanski...but then again she's a bit old for him.
C'mon Dems! Rush to the defence of your principles.
Big and Carrie!
Harrison better keep that smooth talkin' sly fox ladies man Lando Calrissian away from her. She'll squeeze out a cappucino baby and he'll go all Greedo on her.
@PIJoe, If it wasn't for Al Gore – you'd be using a dial-up BBS right now, and would hear occasionally about this "computer network" the military uses...
Oh right, I forgot he "invented" the Internet
Congratulations to the happy couple and best wishes for a long and happy marriage !
Staying true to many men's motto: No fat chicks!
Frankly, m'dear, he's a lot prettier than she is.
I've been reading a lot of stupid comments about their age difference, like it is so out of the blue. Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones have over 20 years age difference. Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher have over 20 years age difference. Geeez people get a grip!
It irritates me to see a lot of dumb comments here. Posting comments about Al Gore and the politics thinking they're "oh so smart". Yet, they are reading this entertainment page and posting "no brainer" comments. Bring your political discussion to the Politics category will you?
And for those who pretend they are not interested to read this, why spend your time reading this news if you're not interested? Read something that you really like will you? And if you happen to read an article that you don't like, don't announce your ignorance to the whole world. You can read the headline, so you know what it's all about even before you open it.
Congrats Harrison & Calista!
War. Oil disaster. Recession. Unemployment. .....and Ally McBeal marries Star Wars guy......Big whoop!!
I'm sorry... what part of MARQUEE BLOG do you not understand?
Stop being such a debbie downer and go out and get a life.
...after the engagement, it took over a year just to work out the PRE-NUP
BRAVO!!!!
Why don' t you people just write notes to each other. Who cares what your opinion is or whom you have lost respect for?
This is supposed to be controversial? As for his other marriages not working out, he said in the past he was too immature, self-centered and star-struck to make them work. One of his wives had MS and is confined to bed. He is paying for her hired help. Yeah, he has a bazillion dollars but lots of celebrities don't do that.
As for being old, he's 67 years old and still has enough energy to make action movies even if they aren't what they used to be, that says something.
So this was for the movie "Harrison the Cowboy and Calista the Alien" or did the buckaroo really marry the walking stick?
I LOVE the people that are complaining that this is news. And the others that are like "who cares, did they stop the oil leak yet?" if this story was not interesting to you, why did you read it? If you think this is stupid news and want to know about the oil spill, why are you waisting your time reading this story? Yay for them for getting married, this is not about Al gore or the oil spill or any thing else besides 2 famous people who, after dating for many years, got married, and to that I say Kudos!
Indiana Jones marries Ally McBeal. How quaint! Don't these two make a cute couple? it's like she married her father?
When is going to stop? Has he any target to accomplish? Like 8 or 9 or so?
I like Ford as an actor, and am a big fan of Star Wars and Indian Jones. But I lose respect for anyone working on marriage #3 or whatever it is. These people may get away this in this life time but on judgement day in front of the almighty God he's not going to count Oscars, cars, or money in the bank. But instead ask about the vows exchanged and why your pride and ego never allowed to work it out. Just part of the moral decay of America, and agree with a previous comment that Hollywood stars just set a bad example for our youth, or anyone for that matter.
BOB SHUT IT DOWN!!!!! YOU ARE NOT FAMOUS BECAUSE OF YOUR SHATTY OUTLOOK ON CELEBS. DONT BE JEALOUS.
Hooorah ! I'm happy for them both ! It gives creedence to the philosophy "Love". And because we don't love each other enough these days... then we should congratulate those who venture into that path of happiness and respect for each other! Come-on it's good to "Love"... lots of good things erupt from Love.... to include peace and respect for each other. 🙂 I wish I could find that special person in my life !
I wish Harrison and Calista much happiness. The weight comments are not necessay. I have been both skinny and fat and either way, I received ugly comments. We are all different sizes for a reason, if we all looked just alike, that would just be wrong. Maybe she has a health problem that causes this. I have a health problem that causes my fat; used to be thin. I hate all the ugly comments because I don't look like a skinny model anymore. But just consider the source, a person who finds satisfaction in making ugly remarks is the real problem, not a person's size. good luck H and C!
as long as their happy, who are we to judge?
gossipgalnow.blogspot.com
No mention of Flockhart's show on ABC, Brothers & Sisters. I guess TV is beneath the haughty-haughts being targeted here. Though I don't see how - some of the people are kinda looney, eh?
gross... just gross.
Two things:
First – Congrats to Harrison and Calista – for all appearances, they have been happy and in love for the years they have been together – we should wish them well.
Second – whoever keeps mis-quoting Al Gore about the internet must be a talk radio/fox fan...your ignorant hatred is showing...you finally came close, but still edited for effect...what Al Gore said was "During my service in the US Congress, I took iniative in the creation of the internet """"AS WE KNOW IT TODAY"""""meaning that when most of the other congresspeople were sneering that no one would use an internet and therefore the DARPA shouldn't get the funding to take things to the next level, it was Al Gore who told them how wrong they were. As usual a man of vision with his eye on the future gets turned into a soundbite joke by ignorant asses being led around by the nose by ignorant asses making a fortune doing it!
Didn't Ted Kennedy drive off a short pier? Oh wait that was a bridge when he killed that poor girl.
It's nice to see something positive in the news. Harrison Ford has always been one of my favorite actors, although he's very shy on talk shows. Don't know much about Calista Flockhart, but she doesn't look anorexic, just the product of genetics and high metabolism. I'm all for anyone finding a ray of happiness in this complex world. All the best to them.
There is no way I would be wife number 4 taking my first stab at marriage with a man 22 years older than me.
MUST BE LOVE!!!!
Hope the participants at the wedding were not flying in a Cessna 310. See CNN story on Plane Crash in NM.
I think this is Harrison's Ford's 3rd marriage not 4th.
I guess after 2, no one really cares about the #s.
Al Gore should get married again.
This is some mess. This just fuels lack of realism and gives hope to women everywhere in these relationships that are long past their expiration date. 'Maybe if I hold on . . . it happened for Calista'. Or the other ones looking at Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowes relationship to illustrate that sometimes married men do marry their mistresses. Whatever happened to love and commitment. The we can date for couple/few years commit and marry one another not that we're going 'be together' for eternity, till we've both slept with as many people as we want and our kids are in grammar school and then marry one another because we're too tired or old to convince ourselves we can find someone better. It's just a mess
Wow, such a sad story. Kill youself now.
Have you eaten???? Your kindness synapses are not firing properly!!!
I thought he was married to Carrie Fisher. Did they get divorced? And how will she react to his frequent foreign trips fighting evil? Good luck to them.
Oh, please stop behaving with such bad manners. Congratulations are in order for anyone who can find someone they want to spend their lives with. Now please go do something productive.
What Rupert said...
I think part of the delay had to do with his kids and the ex. Anyway, their cohabitation has lasted longer than most actual marriages, so I suspect they are in it for the long haul and their very private happy life together will continue for a long time to come.
Did he have her sign the Miles Massey Pre-Nup?
Iron clad!
PI Joe, if you get your head out of Rush's behind you should try checking your facts, Try snopes you will find he never said that use your head instead of going along with what you hear from the repub flunkies on the radio
My god, the photo looks like an ad for Botox. Creepy.
at least HF looks normal, but no matter how hard Calista tries, she can't get those "smile muscles" to work
So negative going on and yet we continue...
Who cares what age or what you look like, if you are totally happy, why not, we have one life to live! To each its own, I hope they are happy together.
Thought they were already married. Yawn
lol, look at all of you bitter old haters!
They're cute.
to Stepup:your down right stupid.age is just a number,this crap about age gaps is b.s.get a life,just because your messed up does not give you the right to make others unhappy,god is the only one who has the right to judge the "real you and or us" kevin, sierra vista arizona

WHO CARES!!!!!! IS THERE NOTHING ELSE TO WORRY ABOUT IN THIS WORLD THAN THESE 2 MORONS!
Another laughable hollywood marriage...any odds on how long this one will last???????
It's Ford's third marriage, not his fourth.
He's rich. She's hot, and the younger the better.
Congrats Calista and Harrison.. she's cuter than Princess Leia anyhow. :p
Two things quickly.
1. He's old.
2. She's skinny and ugly
3. You're a hater.
4. You're shallow.
@Jessica
"...and he never claimed to "invent" it...but it is amazing how many people enjoy making fun of their own ignorance."
Actually, maybe you should watch the interview. He says, "I took the initiative in creating the internet." He obviously misspoke, but it sounds like he's saying he created it to me.
here's the interview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BnFJ8cHAlco (if link doesn't work, just search for al gore and internet on youtube)
All of you negative people on here, ALL OF YOU, need to be laying in bed facing death and see how horrible you are and who you are praying to. NONE of you know either Harrison Ford or Calista Flockhart. I don't either. Their life is theirs and theirs alone. I wish them happiness, but, then I wish all of you haters happiness also. I just celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. We were told it would never work. We are so happy. Just Please, Give Up The Hate. You will all feel so much better. It isn't funny on these blogs, no one really laughs, just go outside, smell a rose, see the stars, laugh at your silly kids, barbeque a hot dog, but, certainly don't be miserable because these two have become Mr. and Mrs. Harrison Ford. Be happy and live longer.
The tabloids report that "...wedding guests dined on a seven-course Wolfgang Puck-designed menu, including their choice of either Chateaubriand or Lobster Thermidor, while the bride ate a sumptuous feast of one Wheat Thin, a carrot stick and 4 fluid ounces of chilled Evian."
Yawwwwnnnnnnn
Good for them!!!!!! They both seem to be pretty grounded as far as Hollywood types go and that's pretty refreshing these days. He's an icon because of Star Wars and Indiana Jones (both great characters) and she will always be Ally McBeal (cute and funny). They both have contributed nicely to our world.
She looks 60! Eat something, already!
I am 48 years old and can't imagine being married to a woman 21 years younger than me.
By the way, this is marriage #3 for Harrison, not #4. Both his previous two marriages ended in divorce after 17 years.
Good luck to them both. Hollywood is hard on marriages, I hope this one lasts. Yes, he is old enough to be her father, but he isn't. After 8 years together I would expect that they know what they are doing.
Why would anyone want to marry that hideous bag of bones (her, not him)? Harrison, make her eat the WHOLE cake, she needs it.
Last I checked 45 years old isn't considered a young trophy wife. I hope whatever years they have together, married or not, are happy ones. Same for all you guys too.
Isn't she a too old for him? He is Harrison Ford, for Christ sake, he could get himself a 20-years old starlet...
I'm 47 and cannot imagine marrying someone who is 69 (a 22 year age difference). Not even if it was Harrison Ford. I wish them well, but on a personal level, ew.
Congratulations to the happy couple. As they have found happiness in each others arms, I toast to their happiness and long life together. As happiness is as hard to find as the elusive Holy Grail, may yours stay with you, till long after forever. Again congratulations from my heart.
He could have done so much better. She is much younger than him, but he's Indianna Jones & Han Solo, for God's sake!!
and who cares , seriously we have more important problems in our Gulf , than worry about these two!
the gulf? it'll be fine – its a "big ocean" even BP said so. And plus, its only a few barrels a day leaking. but this, OMG...this is devastating, this is just crazy. so many things wrong with this...she's really skinny, he's really old, they have been living together in sin for 8 years, the list just goes on. but that oil spill, hey, if its not meant to spill into the ocean, why is it stored beneath the oceans floor? yeah..think about that for a minuate (end of satire)
WOW – some of you folks need to take a chill pill. It's THEIR life – let them live it. Jealous or something?
Congratulations to the happy couple. If Harrison Ford and Calista Flockhart can find happiness in each others arms, then I wish them all the best. We are all searching for happiness in life, and I think that happiness is what they have found with each other. Again congratulations to the happy couple. May your happiness be with you, till long past forever.
Why does CNN even report a scandal like this? The immoral couple lived together, causing scandal amongst the young people of this country, like all the other hollywoods. Tell us about the couple who met, fell in love, then had a beautiful wedding without ever fornicating. Hollywood has given the young people of the world the most scandalous behavior. People like this should be ashamed of themselves for ruining many lives by a poor example.
Are U 4 real???? Get a grip!
best comment ever! but lets take it one step further, should a man and woman even SPEAK to each other before marriage? I think not...why spoil the magic?
INDY COVER YOUR HEART
If you people actually care about this you really need to get a life!
Yeah... and if you click the link and then comment about how people who actually care about this need to get a life... well... looks like you need one as well.
Their wedding vows:
Her: I love you
Him: I know
Classic!
Their honeymoon:
"I'd just as soon kiss a wookiee."
"I can arrange that!"
In honor of their marriage, this classic:

🙂
Harrison was married only twice before this, so this is wife #3, not #4 – Mary Marquardt and Melissa Mathison (please excuse any misspellings).
As my father, who married my mother when he was 52 and she was 34 said, if you marry late in life and it's good, at least you had that. And if it's bad, well at least "til death do us part" isn't all that long. He died six days after their twenty-fifth anniversary. Best of luck, I say.
Cool couple!
They're perfect for one another - while he may have nuked the fridge, she never eats anything.
Wow, we have "no fat chicks!" and "anorexic stick!". There is such a narrow range of desireability for women. If women have adopted the "size doesn't matter" philosophy towards men, maybe men should return the favor. Besides, Calista looks pretty decent to me in this photo. Harrison, in contrast, does not.
Not news.
If you don't thing entertainment news is news, then why do you read it! You are insainly petty
Two words: Marquee Blog.
Now she can change the depends and wipe his booty for the next 10 years...
I think he probably has enough money to hire someone to change his depends if he needs to. Congratulations to them both.
Best Wishes to the both of you and your son. Many happy years together. - Don't pay attention to the ugly and nasty comments on here– They envy the heck out of your happinees. Most comments are positive and only have good wishes for you. You found love– Most of us have not.
I'm really happy for them both. Congratulations and long life together. Sorry for all the negative comments.
He's handy with a hammer too, so he's bringing something to the marriage besides good looks, money and celebrity.
Ewwww.
It's a good thing when old people marry. Keeps the gene pool fresh for the young.
"He got all the milk he wanted for free, so why did he give the cow access to half his stuff?".......maybe he realized that that was a cop-out and that when you really love someone you don't mind giving them ALL of your stuff, nevermind half.
hellz yea. NM is the best place to get married! Congrats Harrison and Calista! To the next 100 years!
More like less than 30, he's almost 70.
Who even knew that Harrison Ford even had a penis?
Probably his doctor.
This is actually Harrison's third marriage, not his fourth.
He got all the milk he wanted for free, so why did he give the cow access to half his stuff? The heart wants what the heart wants I guess. I wonder if he ever calls her Chewy?
You should talk Wolverine! Go claw something mac.
At 67 and 45, it is likely that the only thing Calista gets regularly from Ford is whatever inner qualities he might have. She has to love him because she has her own money and he's an old bag now. She'll be doing his diapers soon and that's just a punishment for her. He married her because he's too old to get anyone else and who's going to do those diapers for him? Also, you can't take your money to the grave so why not arrange for Calista and son to inherit it? What selfish dude would prevent his partner and kid from receiving support? Only a total a-wipe man would withold support from his adopted kid because the genes are different. Children are made each day, not just born. You make your kids the way they are and genes have only some say in it. Screwed up kids reflect screwed up parents.
why should she take the whole pig when she was getting the sausage for free?
I don't see what he sees in her....she is way to skinny....
Maybe for you . . .
You idiot, looks isn't everything in a human being. Ever heard about personality?Really beautiful is what's INSIDE a women, not just on the outside. ..
Harrison Ford is hardly God's gift to women in the looks department so why don't you take a long walk off a short pier with Ted Kennedy?
Well, obviously what he can see in her is her bones. Considering he played, and is still so passionate about an archeologist role, what's so surprising about this marriage? He can look at bones every day from now on if he wants.
I say "Good for them!"
May Satan bless this Hollywood-liberal union.
You're a jerk.
Are you on medication? You should be!
no shortage of crazy here today.
please don't use the late Ted Kennedy's name! I knew him personally, you are NO Ted Kennedy.
Why don't you take a long walk off a short pier?
You are truly not Ted Kennedy...I mean unless you killed someone in a fiery car crash and then left them there to die...then maybe you're at least a close second to him
vivian
please don't use the late Ted Kennedy's name! I knew him personally, you are NO Ted Kennedy
Ofcourse you did. Went to the parties with "Ted and the boys" with a couple other local psychos!
Was Ethel really that mean to him? C'mon, give us the scoop!
Congratulations! 'Nuf said.
good luck to them both – what's with the negative comments?
Haters.
Go Han Solo, Go!
Wooo hooo!
She's no kid at 45 so he isn't robbing the cradle. Get a life, if two people love each other, can stand to live together and enjoy life then wish them well. So he dies before her. If they have a nice live and raise their child together what's to complain about. They are a lot better than many of the Hollywood types.
She's no kid but 22years age difference? Maybe not rockin the cradle but 22yrs. is a bit much.
22 years is a big difference when one is 20 and the other 42.
But by the time someone is 45 they can make whatever choice they want, even to get married for the first time to Harrison Ford, and frankly, its a bit absurd to claim one was taken advantage of, or entered into it with the blinders of youthful enthusiasm, or whatever, c'mon.
I just don't see the case for victimization here....2 adults made their choice, and the proper response is, congratulations.
"A bit much" for what, you useless halfwit?
Good for them. Hope he got the prenup, he's to old to be running around Indiana Jones style.
"cradle-robbing"? Yeah.. don't see her complaining do ya?
I wouldn't complain! At 67 he's still a hunk
Iwish
I wouldn't complain! At 67 he's still a hunk
I think you meant "chunk!"
The old man gets his broom. Five foot six...built like a stick....gonna be his "child bride!"
Ok Ford, you got the young trophy wife, now get rid of the stupid earring.
Yeah, how about it!
I would hardly call that thing a 'trophy wife".......Keep the earring and get rid of the stupid wife!
"You said you wanted to be around when I made a mistake, well, this could be it, sweetheart."
"I take it back"
Great one...ha ha. Actually, I think this is only marriage #3 for him. But there will be a #4 when he falls for the next scrawny girl who's wowed by his stardom.
Just to reiterate...It's about time!
He is sooo gay! Or maybe bi, but this is a ruse, people!!!
Oh no! I see gay people everywhere! Someone has some deap issues which which he/she needs to deal.
Anorexia is a bad thing.
I used to like Harrison Ford until I realized he was another cradle-robbing, old man actor. He's old enough to be her father! That's just gross.
Way to go Han Solo!
Too bad he doesn't know how to use his lightsaber properly. He might have to call on Luke to help out. Uhoh. Menage a trois anyone?
"Laugh it up, fuzz ball." – Han Solo "The Empire Strikes Back"
45 isn't exactly in the cradle! Maybe you'd have a point if you said he was robbing the cougar den!
to Stepup:your down right stupid.age is just a number,this crap about age gaps is b.s.get a life,just because your messed up does not give you the right to make others unhappy,god is the only one who has the right to judge the "real you and or us".People get married every day that are 20-30 years apart. kevin, sierra vista arizona
"They say I'm robbing the cradle - but I say she's robbing the grave."
- Professor Hubert Farnsworth - Futurama
Dude needs to be smacked upside the head. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Amen!
I agree with you, now let's see what happens a few months/years from now.
I don't know, maybe he actually loves the lady and wants to make her his wife (finally). She accepted, so obviously she wants to get married too. It would be "broke" if both of them wanted to get married, but didn't because some self-absorbed folks in society thinks its "not cool" or old fashioned.
Uh XwngLady... #4 for him... obviously, marriage gets broken easily for him. 8 years with her means it wasn't broke... why did he try to "fix" it? Now, she's just on the way to being ex-wife #4...
It's actually marriage number 3. The article is incorrect. He was married to his college sweetheart for 15 years, then later to screenwriter Melissa Mathison for 21 years–not exactly marriages that were "easily broken."
Strange...marriage at 67 years old. Why? This is 2010. Seniors living together is OK. No need to marry.
Letsee....he's now bought the cow he was getting for free. Bet they are divoriced within 5 years. Anybody willing to put money on that?
themoi, I wouldn't put money up on something that stupid and pointless.
Is that the only picture of these two that they could find?
I know, Right? Looks like the surgeon did a pretty good job on his face, now he need to get that neck looked at.
I thought this was about Harrison and Calista!! NOT Al Gore!
No kidding! She looks like E. T. ready to phone home! He looks like he could barely get his shirt buttoned!
Did Al Gore approve this marriage?
What is with people always inserting Al Gore into everything?? You are a moron! Al has nothing to do with this.
Al Gore invented marriage.
I get the Al Gore reference...FUNNY!
Al Gore didnt invent anything, but he did help bring the internet to the people. He helped with the legislation that brought about the internet, and he never claimed to "invent" it...but it is amazing how many people enjoy making fun of their own ignorance. I guess, Kennedy invented the spaceship that took men to the moon too?
Al Gore is to the "internet" as JFK was to the "space program". ROTFL! All the good folks that actually did invent the internet would think that's hilarious. DARPA – the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency – that originally developed the network concept and put it into practice predated Al's "fine service" to the country by a couple of decades. "During my service in the congress I took the initiative in inventing the internet" – Al Gore to Wolf Blitzer.
He's solving Global warming... OR did he invent Global warming and now trying to solve it?
I hate to break it to you, but the space program was around before Kennedy just as DARPA was around before Al Gore.
Jennifer....please don't htink that Al Gore is any thing other than a proffiteer. He's making millions flying around the world "fighting" for an imaginary cause. Climate change on a global scale can't be measured in the short period of time that the supposed experts are claiming to have done so. Comparing data taken with crude instruments decades ago and compiling it with data collected from the sophisticated equipment of today is also impossible. He's the typical Democrat, Liberal.......he keeps getting richer while encouraging you to be mediocre. Similar to the unions........
Sad how everything these days is reduced to partisan sniping by trolls.
Actually, you can make fun of what Gore has often been MISQUOTED as saying all you want. However, the truth is that Gore was the driving force behind the funding and research to make what DARPA started accessible to the rest of us so we can waste time whining about him on a CNN comment page.
Al Gore may not have approved, but Rush Limabaugh may have "weighed" in.After all, he's also on #4.
Al Gore invented invention. He's like the mother of invention, except he's was the father of invention. He won't tell anyone who the mother is.
All Gore was completely inconsequential in increasing availability to the internet to the public. If he had never been born, it would have zero effect on the internet as we know it.
Al Gore is getting richer and so is Ruch Limbaugh and Glen Beck but you conservatives listen to them anyway right? I am no republican and no democrat but if I am ill I will go to a doctor and not an accountant and if I want to know about global warming i will go to climatologists and not to politicians and political commentators and majority of climatologists agree on global warming and it's effects. By the way, why are we discussing global warming on entertainment page???
OMG, to everyone who is missing/over-analyzing the jokes: stop analyzing for 5 seconds, open mouth, laugh, & repeat if necessary. Thank you and that is all, you can now resume acting smart.
Al Gore invented Al Gore.
about time
Haha, my co-worker said the exact same thing...
Ha-ha! I'm detecting a distinct split of opinion by gender.
They shouldn't have gotten married–they should have gotten her something to eat for 6 months. She's the queen of bimbo anorexia. He could have done soooo much better.
Nerf-herders have the right to be happy too! Congrats to them!
Who really gives a ****?? Did they fix the oil leak yet?
Shouldn't all these Al Gore haters be reading Fox news? This is cnn.
It's a good thing – congrats!!
Congrats Calista & Harrison!!!
Harrison is a Taurus and plods along like a bull. Taurus' take a long time to decide and make such a commitment. I've been with my Taurus boyfriend 6 1/2 years and know it could be at least 10 years before he marries me. It took 10 years for him to marry his last wife.
It will not last. I have seen it before. And many times too...
Just when yoo think 8 years are a good enough time to test a relationship and get married. Boom !!! Best of Luck.
....people in love commit to feel committed...then they commit less...more "less"...then loves fizzles to blah – then one starts over...
