Cheney said (Gore) “simply makes some things up out of whole cloth and repeats them over and over and over again until he’s called on it.” He referred to doubts about an anecdote Gore used when he told a group of elderly that the arthritis medicine his
mother-in-law took cost three times as much as the animal version. “Gore is going around the country, making up stories about his family, citing costs that may or may not have been paid in order to try to win a political argument.”
