Passenger jets are pressurized to an even higher altitude than Denver. Is Gore suggesting that Obama cannot be trusted with important tasks while flying Air Force One?

I wouldn’t trust Obama to do any important tasks while on Air Force One.
Or on the ground.
Or anywhere in between.

I dunno, but maybe the Boy King is only able to function at high altitude if he is flanked by styrofoam Greek columns?

pffft. He has spent so much time in Colorado the last few months he should be acclimatized.

My whole family had pretty unbearable altitude sickness when we moved to the mountain west. But here is the thing, it doesn’t kick in for awhile- a couple of days at high altitude is not enough to lay you low. The left hasn’t got anything. If this is all they have, we are in like flynn!

We lived x2 in Colorado Springs, at a higher altitude than Denver. We go back for work and visits often. The first thing they tell you even before you arrive is to take Tylenol and drink lots of water. And some people it affects and some have no trouble. So given all the time he has spent in CO, IF he was prone to the altitude bothering him, shouldn’t his people have gotten him there a few days early? After all they are the smartest people in the world.

Psst, Dummygore, Mitt Romney was at the same level.

It was his attitude,not the altitude.
